The video of the little boy begging his mum not to flog him has gone viral and has bagged a deal with a foundation called Combat Domestic Violence and Abuse Foundation.
The foundation made this announcement on facebook and asked for the public to help find the boy.
According to the foundation, the rate at which violence is high can be reduced when we practice to ‘calm down’ (the words of the boy when he was pleading with his mum) and that they will love to make him an ambassador of the foundation.
They wrote;
Calm Down!
We, the president, (Chief Dozie Kaidi Obiaku), members and trustees of the Combat Domestic Violence and Abuse Foundation would like to enjoin the general public to help us get to the boy in the viral video.We would love to make him an ambassador.
Every violence in the world could be avoided if we learnt to clam down.
We have adopted ‘Calm down’ as a key mantra now and we would love to bring the boy in as one of us.
Please help us find him. Thank you.
