A recent blog post highlighted the alarming number of underaged boys arrested on August 1, 2024 during a nationwide protest against bad governance. The images showed them looking malnourished as they prepared to face court for charges of treason. This situation sparked widespread outrage, with many disapproving of such actions that deny citizens their right to protest and, even worse, starve underaged children in custody.
In the midst of this, one insensitive comment claimed, “They did their atrocities. This is just a strategy to have public pardon or pity. I don’t buy this !!” This reaction reflects a troubling dismissal of the serious issues at hand, prioritizing skepticism over empathy. Such comments not only undermine the gravity of the situation but also contribute to a culture that neglects the rights and well-being of vulnerable individuals, particularly children.
