  5. That's the difference between white mentality nd black mentality











    "An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money left. They were moving to a smaller house because they could not afford to stay in the present house after paying the doctor's bills. Only a very costly surgery could save him now and there was no one to loan them the money.

    When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother with whispered desperation, 'Only a miracle can save him now', the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her piggy bank from its hiding place in the closet. She poured all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully.

    Clutching the precious piggy bank tightly, she slipped out the back door and made her way six blocks to the local drugstore. She took a quarter from her bank and placed it on the glass counter.

    "And what do you want?" asked the pharmacist.

    "It's for my little brother," the girl answered back. "He's really very sick and I want to buy a ...

  41. A perfect example of what a kind gesture can do.I am glad the child is getting better.However @lindaikeji,i take an exception to the header of the story-Ngerian 'witch child'.You could have used a better header than you reffering to him as a witch child.He is human first before any other thing.Dont sensationalize a seemingly story that depicts mans inhumanity to man and aswell a story that shows that there are still beautiful people out in the world who will not stand by and let evil thrive. Many thanks to the Aid worker and to you too @lindaikeji for bringing the story to us.

  46. But this doesn't look like same boy na. This one just looks like he's just learning how to work. Linda it's either u have d wrong pix or someone is knacking 419 here oooo.

  48. Some 'THOMAS' are still doubting if the before & after pics are same. Continue doubting till your miracles/testimonies pass you by. Same way you people doubted Jumoke's story.
    God bless Anja richly.
    Hope will turn out to be mouth-piece of this nation.

  49. Its the same child. In the previous picture, the child can be considered to have been fasting for a long time. However because his fast was not a controlled or professional fast, it certainly aged him and made him look taller.
    Once he was rescued and started being feed, his organs especially the kidneys might have been compromised which is why as you can see, he looks bloated all over. His kidneys are not properly filtering which leads to water retention and therefore the bloating. His diet needs to be highly selective to avoid over burdening his body. He will need time and a lot of care to meet up with his age mates in strength and looks

    Wishing baby Hope all the love and care on planet earth

  52. I doubt this picture. Just look at the two picture very well. The healthy looking boy is quite younger(Right picture) and unable to stand on his own. Which means at this stage, he is still learning how to work. But the hunger stricken picture(Left Picture) show a child much older than the other. Hence, it couldn't have been before and after. If the picture is the same child, it then means the one to your right was taken when he was quite younger.

  56. No no no no!!! Linda, you're kidding me, right? it's not the same boy. How can this transformation happen in just a couple of months? GOD, You are awesome! When this boy becomes somebody, which he will soon be, those demonic family members will crawl out of the woods to claim "it was the devil's work". The rejected stone will soon be the CORNERSTONE.

    1. It's the same baby. Look at the face obviously he's going to appear skinnier and taller when he's malnourished and shorter when he's nourished and fed.

  65. This Linda is a fraudster. He copied the pic from another site, edited the 1 year after picture of the boy where the white lady was carrying him. So that people will not accuse her of piracy. Naija people with sense.

  66. So sad what that poor child had to endure. Am so happy for him now. Makes you wonder how many more are there? For those of you saying it's not the same child, it is. Look at earlier photographs published it's the same face just much healthier looking now. What makes me so angry and sick is all those people in the original video walking past him and not helping. Not guiding him to an orphanage to take him in or somewhere he can get help. Wicked people, shame on all of them. Thank god for that lady that found him. God bless her. This is an example of lack of education and development. The parents cannot possibly think their child is a witch when he can't even say his own name. May God bless this child to live a long and happy life. Anyone who sees this in Nigeria or any child that is suffering, take note you can make a difference. I've visited Nigeria once and there are many in need so if you see any child in need of help you can make the difference. As a Mother I can't bare to see children suffering and this can be prevented.

  67. Africa and there level of stupidity, the family 4 say that they can't afford to feed this boy well instead of this useless witch accusation

  68. Thank GOd.ty bello shud help children lyk dis

  69. Thank God for the restoration...but the two children do not look alike o. the first one is taller and the chubby one looks like he's just learning to walk...considering the time frame for the child to regain his weight he should have been walking very well. My thoughts actually.

    1. It's pathetic that those Nigerians were walking past that boy and not one of them was doing a thing to help. Wicked evil human beings. Thank god that woman found him. Why are people so ignorant to something like that I will never understand?

  73. linda, are you guys sure that it is the same child, yesterday was a mixed race child for compare and together is a younger child. If is a year later , the child should be standing up right without holding chair or anything for support, this story have k leg am not accepting all facts here.

    ReplyDelete
  74. @ilebaye makolo It's the same child. He looks much different because when he was malnourished he appeared taller. When you are very skinny you look taller. He's now nourished and looking like a chubby little boy which makes him appear shorter. If you look at earlier pictures of him it's the same face. It is defiantly the same child the lady even posted it on her own website with that picuture.

  75. I just want to bless God for the life of this child. He used that Danish woman to turn his life around. This boy is made for signs & wonders! God bless you boy!

  76. unbelievable to all those saying its not the same child...obviously you havent seen pictures of him standing and playing unaided.....DEFINITELY THE SAME CHILD
