On her Facebook page, she shared his viral old photo where he was rejected and branded a witch and a current one from his matriculation.
Anja's Facebook post read:
“I rescued Samuel 12 years ago. He was accused of being a witch and almost killed!
“After his rescue I sat down with him to eat food. Children accused of being witches are believed to be possessed by evil spirits so nobody wants to share food with them. To share food with Samuel was my way to make him know that I did not believe he was a witch!
“And now after 12 years under my care I watch with much pride Samuel celebrating his matriculation today. He did it !!”
“Congratulations Samuel ! 12 years ago, we shared a meal together and my only wish back then was for you to survive and get an education. My wish came true because of your support to Land of Hope. I’m forever grateful.”
