A Lagos-based lady, Chioma Nwabueze, 24, has narrated how God used her to save the life of a stranger who had been a victim of Boko Haram.
The University of Ibadan graduate shared the story on her Facebook page on December 12, attracting many encouraging comments.
According to her, the male beneficiary, whose name she did not disclose, had escaped to Lagos from his hometown in Adamawa after losing both parents to the insurgency in the North East zone.
She further revealed that the beneficiary suffered from appendicitis that could have claimed his life had she and her family not intervened.
Read the story below:
I came back from work and met this guy in my house.. According to my family, they always see him around n my (mum) mama Africa as I call her,usually give him food anytime she sees him resting at the front of our compound. To cut the story short, mum was only trying to do what the Bible asked us to do.
unfortunately, this guy from Adamawa state who is a victim of the Boko Haram tragedy lost his parents and family in Adamawa n moved to Lagos.
On the 9th of December 2017,he was brought to our home by someone who said when he was dying of pains, he asked him who he has in this Lagos that can help him and he said my mum. Coming back to meet this stranger I haven’t even met n saw his condition, I knew it was beyond just care as a nurse. We rushed him to hospital and doctor diagnosed RUPTURED APPENDICITIS…
I started asking myself, Chioma who sent u ooo.. Everyone I told said y can’t I throw him away to die? I was heart broken.
The load was on me n my family. We went to police station, they wanted to detain my dad . They were like y will he help someone he doesn’t know? It was hell for US.. We tried to get someone from his state to stand in for the surgery, no way… Anyway I decided to take the risk. N I stood in. The surgery was successful. Am sharing this because anyone could have been in this guy shoe… I could have been in his shoe. Today is the happiest day of my life. God saved me from troubles for rendering help.. So Pls celebrate with me n my family…. It wasn’t easy but it worth it.!!!!!
