Omonigho with Indian nurses
Omonigho Abraham, the little boy attacked by dogs in the Igando area of Lagos State is beginning to regain his health in an India hospital.
Punch, who initially made Omonigho's story known to the world reports that the four-year-old is in a stable condition and would return to the country between January and February 2015.
Global Initiative for Peace, Love and Care, GIPLC, a non-governmental organisation, is amongst the group who raised money for the boys treatment abroad.
It will be recalled that on October 7, 2014, Omonigho was attacked by two dogs belonging to his parents’ landlord, Stanley Wesley, at their residence on Adegboyega Street, Akesan Estate.
It was reported that the dogs chewed off his scalp and exposed his skull during an attack which his brothers escaped from.
He was rescued by his mother who fought off the dogs as policemen and helpless residents watched at the gate.
The Lagos state government agreed to foot a medical trip to Dubai, but the family turned down the offer, saying the Delta State Government and GIPLC had concluded arrangements and travel documents for Omonigbo’s trip to India.
Omonigho, accompanied by his mum Helen was flown to India on Friday, November 28, and had since been admitted in an undisclosed hospital.
Considering the excruciating pain Omonigho has gone through since the beginning of tis ordeal, it is very heart warming to see the colour returning to Omonighos cheeks.
