Here with the full round up of the days news but first, we look at how Tens Of Thousands of children in ghana have been trafficked into Forced Labour. She joins ghana have been trafficked into Forced Labour. Shejoins a team of charity workers. Ghanas biggest fishing ground, lake volta, holds a dark secret. Tens of thousands of children who work on its waters have been trafficked into a life of Forced Labour. Given up by poorfamilies on the promise of a better life. Many face violence, and some even die on the job. Hes a child, but hes no longer a child. Hes been through things us as adults havent been through. The government has pledged to eradicate this illegal practice. Theres so many children who could be rescued and could be put into this facility, but at the moment theres no one in here. With the numbers dramatically on the rise, why are so many children still taken and forced to work like slaves . Yeji, a small town on the banks of lake volta, in the centre of ghana. Around 35,000 people live here and the main source of income is fishing. Its one of ghanas biggest industries, but the trade relies on an army of children some as young as four or five. Dampson was ten when he was brought to work on the lake. His mother was tricked into giving him up to a trafficker. What were they making you do . There are 21,000 Like Dampson On Lake Volta alone, doing dangerous work, like diving to untangle nets, and fishing alone. Buying and selling children is big business here. Theyre trafficked into Forced Labour or what charities would describe as slavery. Its Early Morning here in yeji and were on our way to the river bank. We have very little idea what to expect when we get out there. Today, im joining a rescue team from the charity challenging heights. Hello, nice to meet you. Theyve been notified about some children who are being held. Can you talk us through where were going today . Were rescuing two boys today and one is in this community. The team can only afford two trips to the lake a year, so they target specific children for rescue. They get tip offs from the community and many parents ask for help to bring their children home. It takes a lot of resources to rescue a kid. But their task is huge. Last year, ghana was put on an International Watch list after a dramatic rise in trafficking. We keep seeing these boats, as were going past, with children in them. Were not quite sure if these kids are with their parents, or theyve actually been taken away by the fishermen. Its not uncommon for children to work for their families. Even when theyre meant to be at school. The team give advice to a passing fisherman. Tell me what youre doing here today. How will they help you today . Theres little the charity can do about children like these. They concentrate on the ones who have been taken from their homes and sold to fishermen. After a couple of hours on the lake, we reach our destination. Steven goes ahead to track down the man were looking for. We have a long walk. The fishermen often live miles from any roads. 0k. In that far corner there. The fisherman has agreed to talk. He says he lives here with his wife and there are several children here. The children were looking for are here, but the fisherman is reluctant to hand them over. Word has spread and more villagers want to get involved. The fisherman has finally given in, but theres an unexpected hitch. The child doesnt want to go . Eventually, the child obeys his master and were able to leave with both boys. But its not the triumphant rescue i was expecting. The fisherman is unlikely to face prosecution and the boys seem bewildered. This must be quite Nerve Wracking and frightening for these children because they dont know who you are. Youve just turned up in their homes and then suddenly youre taking them away. After several years in captivity, these boys are on their way to freedom. But they dont know who to trust. Straight after being rescued, the children are taken to the charitys temporary shelter, outside yeji. When i come to visit, im pleased to see happy faces here. Thank you. Good to see you. You too. So weve got all of these kids who were rescued. This is the start of the process of finding their families. Do they know where theyve come from and what their names are, who their parents are . While theyre here, theyll get smartened up hair trimmed, nails cut and any injuries treated. Hello. Im not hurting you . He doesnt have a nail. Whats happened to your leg . What were you doing when your leg hit the boat . How bad can it get when theyre doing this job . Bye. Before they can move the children from yeji, the Charity Needs Authorisation from the police. Ghana has anti trafficking legislation for the police to refer to. The authorisation is given to take the children. This really is very strange. Weve told the police we have these children. Theyve given us approval to take them away. Theyre clearly aware this goes on in their communities, but theyre not doing anything about it. Last year, there were no convictions. This place was founded in 2007. Definitely nice to see these children playing. If you look at when they were rescued and compare to now, you can see that freedom has come. The shelter is very close to my heart. For seven years, i worked on that lake as a fisher boy. Every time i made a mistake, i was badly beaten. So that was a life of seven cumulative years of slavery. I see myself in the eyes of these children. I see these children in my own eyes. So it means a lot to me. It takes many months to prepare the children for family life again. Some have been away from their homes for years. These are their rooms. Do you see something missing here . Theres no pillow. Theres no pillow, yeah. Why is that . Deliberately. Most of these children, when they go home, they dont even have beds to sleep on. We decided ok, no pillow, so that the experience here is similar to when they go home. Ii year old boni has been at the shelter for more than six months. His parents are waiting for him to come home. Whats his name . I want to know how he feels about returning to his family. Do you miss your mum and dad . Have you seen them yet . What did you say to your mum and dad . I like the way you dance. I even took a video of it. Let me show you. Look. Youre the best dancer in the room. Bonis parents live in a poor, rural neighbourhood. Hello, nice to see you. They have five children. His father was a fisherman until he became too ill to work. His mother couldnt cope on her own. Were you given money initially when he was taken . Many poor ghanaians send their children away to richer relatives or people offering to teach them a trade. Bonis mother thought she was sending him to a better life with her sister. Was it very emotional for you when you saw him for the first time . So what will happen to boni when he comes back . Education is free in ghana up to the age of 15. But many parents still dont send their children, because they cant afford the books and uniforms. We invite one of you to come. Dampson was rescued after four years of Forced Labour on lake volta. Hes now back at school. Cheering. His classmates call him soldier because of what hes been through. Hes been given counselling for the trauma hes suffered. After he was rescued, dampson was taken in by his aunt. His mother had died while he was still in captivity. He wants to show me the room he shared with his mother. But its too painful to set foot inside. Reintegrating rescued children back into their homes is not always successful. They come from poor families who sometimes cant or wont take them back. Ghana has earned international praise for its efforts to fight child labour. But the problem is getting worse, not better. There are two government run shelters to house trafficked children, but when i visit one, it seems deserted. There are kids here at this shelter, but im being told that none of them have been trafficked. Theres so many children in yeji who could be rescued and could be put into this facility, but at the moment, theres no one in here. We need the government to commit resources into freeing these children. These are not hidden situation. You have an anti Human Trafficking unit of ghana police service, which is great. But they dont have resource. They dont even have a boat to rescue children. So why is the government doing so little . Hello, how are you . Fine, thank you. Thanks for having me. Youre welcome. Youre aware theres this trafficking that goes on in the country, but you dont have any Rescue Missions or operations to prevent this from taking place. The government is doing a lot. What we do is coordinate, what we do is train our District Functionaries to monitor whatever is going on and report. The police are there. They are doing all that they can to rescue the children. The police are not rescuing the children. They are not . No. The challenge is also the shelters, where to keep the children. Theyre not well resourced. So, sometimes putting the children in those shelters sometimes even looks worse than if they leave them or give them to ngos. Its left to charities like challenging heights to rescue these children. 14 year old dampson is doing well. Hes no longer living with his aunt and has moved in with his dad. Hes a good boy . A good boy. Its still a struggle, but now dampson has a place he can call home. Where do you sleep . Is it nice for you to finally be home . Dampson has the chance of a bright future, unlike the thousands of children still trapped in slave labour on lake volta. For now, their only hope lies in the Small Charities prepared to do battle on their behalf. I want to see a ghana where every child has the capacity to dream about his or her future. I want to see justice for every child that was once enslaved. If you prefer your winter s cold, there is something heading your way there is something heading your way the end of this week.
