As part of the OAfrica #KidsOurFuture campaign, investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas looked into the increasing numbers of children begging illegally on the streets of Ghana.
Further studies and investigations conducted by "Tiger Eye PI" revealed the phenomenon of child begging is more than just children asking for money on the streets.
It was observed that children were trafficked by adults and used as buisness. Children are denied of their right to education, good health, nutrition, protection and choices and do dangerous work for the benefit of the traffickers, who buy and sell them across borders with impunity.
This observation culminated in the ten minute film "Chained by Begging" with an original score by Stonebwoy to be shown on all major TV networks across the country in the month of August.

WHERE IS THE PARLIAMENT UNDER COVER VIDEOS . YOU CO R R UPT SOUL.
like this guy almost caught me. i was actually planning to go into this begging business but had to postpone the idea for now. i heard its a good business. i didnt know we need license to do so. pls where do we get license to do begging business. i need one asap.
eeeiii bra anas life is good for u o. i can see u are living well. good for u bruv. see the kind car u dey drive? why wont these beggars jump on u? they thought u are one of those politicians who are stealing the monies meant for them. they may be right. u are not a politician but u have these politicians in ur pockets that is why some of them want to bring u down. they want their freedom from ur blackmail. investigative journalism is blackmail coated with honey. everyone loves honey that is why many ple like ur work and it will take a person with a good tongue to see that it is mixed with blackmail. look at the kind of car u are driving yet u claim to be leaving with kweku baako. this 10mins film is even an insult to those who are going to watch it. anas is a goner
its only Anas car that will attract about 100 beggars. Stop wasting your time. you are just tarnishing our image to the international world. this is eye service
Ghanians are so little minded and dumb, cant wonder why we follow politicians like kennedy Agyapong whose video carries no weight but unecessary allegations. whatever you say about Anas he the best the nation has had over the years.
Where is this one also coming from. Massa! if its an attempt to redeem your damaged image and restore credibility, you have goofed big time. Some of us have lost faith in you.
I am interested, am not interested with noise makers politicians, they are not sincere to themselves and Ghanaians, only corrupt citizens follow them. It’s time to start leaning from Rwanda people.
Some Ghanaians are hypocrites. No wonder we are not developing. This is what you are paying Anas with
in the western world they call these ple homeless but in our country we call them beggars. Anytime i see ple on the streets begging to survive my heart bleeds and the only thing that comes into my mind is the bad leadership we have. our leaders has decided to make this country a hell for us. Anas, can u for once in ur life investigate the root cause of all these problems u are investigating? the root cause is the kind of ple we have leading us. the politicians who are stealing the monies meant for others. u almost did a good job by investigating the presidency but ur corrupt nature could not allow u to complete the investigation. i am very sure there is some truth in what Nyantakyi said but unfortunately he has to be sacrificed to save the govt. u leave out ple alleged to be taking gifts of $5million dollars to destroy someone who took $65,000 or less. the thunder that will strike u is still doing press up.
