In tobacco farms, kids aged only five years old have been picking the tobacco leaves. Those kids are getting sick, because they get nicotine poisoning which comes in through the skin.
The children have no right to be treated like this and are forced to work for no money, or very little money compared to what the companies make on cigarettes. Those kids aged 5 and up are ingesting so much nicotine; the equivalent to 50 cigarettes.
Those 5 year olds should not be 'smoking'!
We call the tobacco farmers to eliminate child labor in tobacco fields.
