LOOP HOLES IN ADOPTION LAW A BURDEN TO CHILDREN

Posted by Mbabule Staff On September 04, 2014 0 Comment

The national coordinator prevention of trafficking in persons in the ministry of internal affairs says that the current loopholes in the legal guardianship order policy that facilitates the adoption of people mainly kids under 18 years is among the huge problem the country is facing in fueling increased child adoption by foreigners.

According to Moses Binoga the current policy that is under review among other child protection policies is very weak that it has given more room and chances for traffickers to use it to traffick Ugandan children to western countries with the recent case being one of a one boy in Mukono who is now in the USA with parents now calling for him to be returned after they were duped to sign papers which spelt adoption yet their understanding was extending help to the kid.

Binoga now wants tougher laws that will make it very difficult for those intending to adopt kids from Uganda to go through vigorous steps.

Botswana gov’t embroiled in child adoption row

Posted by: APA Posted date : September 3, 2014 at 8:50 am UTC 65 views In: Politics

The Botswana Network on the Ethics, Law and HIV/AIDS (BONELA) said Wednesday it is taking the Botswana government to court over the adoption of a six-year-old child by a South African woman, Deborah Kirstern Mey.Briefing the media, a BONELA spokesperson accused the Botswana government of abating child trafficking and questioned the circumstances under which the child was adopted and taken out of the country on August 29.

The biological parents, Joshua July of Tsamaya and Annah Kopo, alleged that the child was removed from their care by members of the police service and some social welfare officers under direct instructions of a senior government official.

The parents are not happy because the adoptive mother and the child have now relocated to Qatar in the United Arab Emirates.

As discussed over the phone on Friday, I am sending you some documents relating to Ms. Roelie Post's "secondment" to ACT.

In my opinion, it is incompatible with civil servant status for a civil servant to be seconded by her employer to work for an NGO.

It is even more questionable that this civil servant, with the knowledge of her entire hierarchy, founds an NGO and pays for the registration with her own money.

Furthermore, in my opinion, there is a conflict of interest if Ms. Post has previously worked on child protection / children's rights within the DG Enlargement.
