For this investigation, reporters posed as a minister and a business woman to witness cases of child abuse that have claimed the lives of some children in a children's home in Ghana. "The discoveries follow a seven-month investigation by The New Crusading GUIDE into the operation of the Osu Children’s Home and capture cases of physical abuse, squalid living conditions, stealing and caregiver negligence that have resulted in the deaths of many children within the home," says the article. "The investigation also uncovered some disturbing aspects of life at the Osu Remand Home and the Osu Home School and found out that the two institutions, together with the main Home, subjected children under their care to a daily gauntlet of whipping, and other physical punishments that adversely affect the victims’ physical, emotional and academic development."
