Danish Aid Worker, Anja, Rescues Another Child Who Survived Machete Cuts After Being Branded ‘Witch’

Danish aid worker, Anja Loven Ringgren, has rescued another child who was almost killed by his own father after he was accused of being a witch. In her Facebook post, Anja related how the rescued child, Micheal, had been viciously attacked twice with a machete by his father who labelled him a witch and blamed him for the family’s  hardship.

The rest of Nigeria is probably as perplexed as non-Nigerians who may have read or come across the bizarre culture of branding kids witches and wizards in Akwa-Ibom State, south-south Nigeria.

According to the aid worker, Anja,  the distressed Micheal was rescued by one of her workers.

After he survived machete cuts to the head inflicted by his father, he was then taken out in the middle of the night by his father to a very distant place so he would be unable to trace home.

Micheal had been on the streets since then and even got knocked down by a passing car, before Anja’s foundation worker, David Umem rescued him.

Read what she wrote below:

“We have rescued a new child. I’m not in Nigeria now. He was rescued by David Emmanuel Umem and our team.

His name is Michael. His father accused him of being a witch and to be responsible for the hardship in the family !

On two occasions the father tried to kill him by stabbing a machete on his head !

The fathers attempt to kill him failed so instead he took Michael far away from home in the middle of the night so he wouldn’t be able to trace home again.

Since then Michael has been on the road all alone and he even got knocked down by a passing car.
