Blue eyes are considered a rare occurrence among Africans. You probably have never even seen an African with blue eyes. But now you can. Abushe from Jinka in Southern Ethiopia is a boy with the cutest blue eyes ever.

His wondrous blue eyes stem from a condition called Waardenburgh syndrome. Out of every 3000,000 babies, one is born with this rare genetic condition which changes the pigmentation of the eyes. The condition is more common among people with white skin.

Abushe is an aspiring footballer.


The young boy hopes to become a world-renowned soccer player one day. His favorite team is FC Barcelona.

Abushe has dreams of playing for his beloved Barcelona one day and being able to provide and look after his family. He currently lives with his grandparents who educate him.

At first, his parents assumed he was born blind but later discovered he can see. His family has chosen to view his rare syndrome as a “gift from God.”

People with this condition often have very pale blue eyes or different colored eyes, such as one blue eye and one brown eye.




The condition can cause hearing loss and changes in coloring (pigmentation) of the hair, skin, and eyes.

Although most people with Waardenburg syndrome have normal hearing, moderate to profound hearing loss can occur in one or both ears. The hearing loss is present from birth. Luckily, Abushe is said to be able to hear.

Waardenburg syndrome is named after the researcher P.J Waardenburg who first precisely described the disorder in 1951. At least 1,400 cases have since been recorded in the medical literature.
