We do it for science, human rights and meaningful development
It is hard to imagine, but it is true, today, that cases of witch-hunting is still so commonplace in some African and Asian countries despite techno-scientific advancements. It is indeed a reality, a hard pill to swallow, that many children and aged women are still being subjected to humiliating conditions, and even killed sometimes, for being witches. The sanest questions, at this juncture, are: Who are the witches? What evidences do these attackers, nay killers, have and proven before attacking these victims of ignorance? And why accusing only the powerless segments of the society, children and women majorly? Obviously, we should not watch indifferently and allow this dastard act to continue.
Our fundamental goal as a team, the HAPSTA SCRIP Project, is to prevent a recurrence of happenings in the dark ages when many are tried and summarily executed at stakes for witchcraft allegations, in the contemporary period. We have therefore decided to be the VOICE of these VOICELESS children and aged, as well as their MEGAPHONE to other concerned global citizens.
The three cardinal focus of this project are:
P- Prosecution (of erring religious leaders and parents) for deterrence
E- Enlightenment to wean the public from the con religious leaders feeding fat on their ignorance
R- Reunification of the stigmatized with their families for future's sake
