Today (09 Nov) being World Adoption Day, we turn our focus why it’s important for people to adopt and raise awareness around the subject. Over the years reports indicated just how difficult the process of adopting is which somehow turns many people off. But then back in the days many orphans were raised by distant family members and neighbours. What has happened to that and how should we describe the state of adoption in the country?
