Child Rights International has criticized the whipping of a toddler in a viral social media video.
The institution condemned the act in a press release issued by Bright Appiah, its Executive Director.
As a result, a ¢10,000 reward has been set on the man’s head.
The reward will be granted when the Ghana Police Service has confirmed the information provided, according to the release.

“The reward will be provided after such claims have been substantiated and verified by the Police and/or Social Welfare Department as true,” excerpts of the release said.
Meanwhile, it has commended the Police for its swift response on the matter.
“First of all, we would like to highly commend and applaud the swift response of the Ghana Police Service in trying to trace the whereabouts of the man recorded in the video.”
The Ghana Police Service has already commenced investigations into the matter.
It also said it is on a manhunt for a man for his action.
