This young boy was spotted around Ikeja,Lagos roundabout .

He is suffering from elephantiasis,a disease usually common in India.It causes unusual swelling of the limbs and legs...According to reports on twitter,he came seeking for help all the way from the North ..

Unfortunately,no further details were provided..Hope he gets help soon..So sad..

I know this boy, I saw him when I was in Nigeria Last Month, I send his Picture to Linda Ikeji If she knows any organisation him, but didn't get a reply back. Was giving the boy 1k every morning, before I left because I don't know how else to help him.

this is a case of elephantiasis

caused by a filarial worm and it can be treated
it results from blockage of lymph drainage leading to fluid accumulation

An Aedes,culex mosquito must have bit him and deposited the larvae inside. That's a bancroftian filariasis(Elephantiasis). It's a parasitic diseases carried by species of mosquitoes

Sometimes,just sit down and thankGod you are complete...you may be facing other difficulties but when you see some things and people....you just know within yourself that you will be ungrateful if you complain

Has it ever occurred to you that some people only pray for others? From the looks of this boy, even those prayers are worthless.

I feel for him,but i have a problem with some of these beggers.
One day i met a little girl with tumor and was carried about begging,i made a call to one organization i know that assist such people in medical solution,they accepted to see the girl and know the extent of her health condition.I later walked up to the guy pushing the wheelchair and luckily he understands English.I told him that i know people who are ready to help this girl get out of her situation and will have to see her people or whoever is related to her,so that i can talk with them.

Do you know what the guy told me? NO,that the girl is making money through begging and she is putting food for her people while remitting to the owner of the wheelchair....i was weak inside.

Now to this guy,is he begging because there is not help for his condition? or is it a case of this girl i mentioned.
Severally i have gone out of my way to extend a hand of charity and communicating with people i know who help vulnerable people on the streets....i realized that some of them dont want to be helped..they feel comfortable
making money by begging for alms.
Pls if u ever find such people,don't give up on trying to help,cos u
Never can tell those who truely needs help,keep it up.

Someone should transport him to SCOAN or one of the other strong miracle working men of God. This boy shouldn't be in a country where healings are taking place left and right.
