Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that it was a dark time in Nigeria in the 2000s when there was a surge in witch hunts. Many children were ostracised and accused of being witches. That made the families of the accused children abandon and ostracise them from their communities.

Many died due to neglect, and human traffickers abducted others, but the lucky ones were taken in by local and international Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs). Destiny was a young child growing up in Nigeria when his world was turned upside down following accusations that he was a witch.

He was chased out of his community and abandoned by his mother. The child was dejected and couldn't find a way to fend for himself at such a young age. Thankfully, an international NGO called Land of Hope on Instagram found the abandoned boy roaming the streets and rescued him.
