Bright Appiah went on to say that it was against their nature to make noise about all the interventions they have done.

He said it was the basic responsibility of Child Rights International to provide care for the vulnerable in society.

According to him, his intervention has got many parents to open investment accounts for their kids which they would hand over to the kids when they turn 18 years.

He added that they did not make their cases public because of how delicate the issues are and the fact that they want to protect the identity and integrity of those involved.
