General News of Monday, 10 February 2020Source: The ChronicleThe Chronicle Editorial: So the welfare of economic migrants is important than that of Ghanaians? File PhotoThe Daily Graphic last week Saturday carried a story at its front page about children who have besieged the streets of Accra begging for alms. A year ago, the state-owned paper published a similar story that drew the attention of the authorities to the looming danger. Though the paper quoted the numerous steps the Department of Social Welfare has taken to address the issue, The Chronicle is still not convinced that the problem is properly being addressed.It is undeniable fact that the majority of these street begging children are not Ghanaians . Regrettably, it is only few foreigners visiting our country who would recognise these children and mothers as non-Ghanaians.
