TVC E. Few weeks after a video showing 15-year old orphan, Uzoamaka Chukwu getting physically assaulted by one Ogbonnaya Ene Odi in Ebonyi State, help has come her way as she has been adopted.
Apart from finding a new and comfortable home, the Junior Secondary School Two (JSS2) student has been given a full scholarship up to the university level, while the men who tortured her and posted the vile video on social media, are now in custody.
Hon. Linus Abaa Okorie, the lawmaker representing Onicha, Ohaozara and Ivo Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, who had vowed to do anything possible to bring justice for the poor girl, disclosed the development.
“Uzoamaka is now a bona fide member of the peaceful and blessed home of Ms Rita Nnenna Anoh who recently emerged the Most Celebrated Female Personality of the Year at the 2016 Nigeria Role Models Award held in Lagos.
“One can only imagine the joy and overwhelming satisfaction of Uzoamaka as she moved into the palatial home of the Anohs.
“In order to ensure a complete switch from the pains of her past and prepare her for her new life, Uzoamaka was taken on an expansive shopping spree, registered for medical assessment and psychotherapy, while efforts are on to register her in a decent school ahead of the commencement of the new academic session.
It has indeed been an unending dream for her and her elder sister who was on hand, to witness this magical transformation.”
