SOME
NIGERIAN TRAGEDIES WITNESSED
- Abandoned
street children accused of being witches. “Charles' father
poured petrol over him and burnt him alive” says Dr. Fred, who
looked after Charles for a period of two years in critical care.
- Ebony,
approximately five years old lives on the street. “I don’t
know who my parents are.”
- Samuel
said, “My father died, and my mother sent me away. I have
lived on the streets for about a year, and I don’t like it. I
collect scraps from bins to eat, and any bits of metal I can sell to
survive.”
- Esther
lives on the street in a village in Akamkpa. She suffers
mercilessly under horrific conditions after being accused of being a
witch. Our Lord named her Esther, and said to save her, which we are
in the process of doing, with great difficulty. Confirmed by Dr. Fred,
it would appear Esther has brain damage caused by malaria, as she is
unable to speak, and stares vacantly. With correct medical care there
is hope for this precious girl. Please help us to save her.
These
are only a few examples of horrific suffering and abuse God’s children
are experiencing. Please help us with our mission.
