Mr. Boye hinted that, one of the major changes facing the at the moment have to do with accommodation, as the children are temporarily living in an uncompleted building he has managed to put up.

He emphasized the need for serious education campaign since, cases of children being dumped anyhow are on the rise in the country, and call for support especially, from individuals, organizations, NGOs etc, to enable him expand and complete his uncompleted building to house the innocent children who needed care.
