Divine shared the tragic circumstances surrounding the loss of his parents. According to the boy, his father, Mr. Sunday Nwankwegu, was a carpenter who died following a fall from a roof while working. Shortly after his father’s death, Divine’s mother, Mrs. Stella Nwankwegu, was killed in a hit-and-run accident involving a lorry. The series of unfortunate events left Divine without immediate family, leading to his placement with another family in the region.
The boy disclosed that after the deaths of his parents, he was handed over to one Sunday Paul and his family, who reside at Ndiegbe Sharon Junction in the Izzi Local Government Area. However, despite being placed under their care, Divine alleged that he faced maltreatment. These conditions, he said, prompted him to run away from the household in search of safety.
Divine’s journey to find his family has been long and difficult. Since leaving the home of Sunday Paul, he has been unable to locate any of his relatives. With no known family members or guardians to care for him, Divine has turned to the Ebonyi State government for help. His appeal comes at a time when he is in need of both emotional and physical support. The young boy has expressed his deep desire to reunite with his family, as he has no one else to turn to
