A Danish aid worker, Anja Ringgren Lovén who saved a starving little boy who was left for dead in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, after being branded a witch has posted photos of his recovery on her Facebook page.
Photos of the boy, named Hope, being fed a drink of water by Lovén went viral in early February. Hope
Amazed by what she saw, Loven said, “Thousands of children are being accused of being witches and we’ve both seen torture of children, dead children and frightened children.”

However, she wrote, “Hope is getting so much better. Already gaining a lot of weight and looking so much more healthy. Now we only need him to talk. But that will come naturally when he is out of the hospital and starting his life among all our children. Children become stronger together.”
