Child Abuse Scandal Reveals President's Indifference

The National Secretariat for Children, Adolescents, and the Family (Senniaf) conducts a tour of shelters to which it provides financial assistance, in order to verify their operation. In other words, its officials are now doing what they should have done before the first reports of abuse against minors in those shelters were made. It is very clear that positions in the Government are for friends, not for those who must render a service to the country. And this scandal has barely scratched the surface. Surely, with a thorough investigation, horrors will come out. We hope that at least this time the head of the Public Ministry (MP) will do more than just give us a speech about how well the investigation will be done, especially when we all witness that his presence has completely emasculated this entity. And, like the parsimony of this official, the silence of the President of the Republic is more scandalous, who not only has had to personally demand the immediate investigation of the case but also request the resignation of the entire Senniaf administration, instead of look with indifference at a tour without any purpose and that, in any case, should be the object of the investigation that the MP will carry out. This scandal portrays in full the disturbing indifference of a government that only wants to satisfy its voracious greed. but to ask the resignation of the entire Senniaf administration, instead of indifferently looking at a tour without any purpose and that, in any case, should be the object of the investigation that the MP will carry out.
