children were accused of being witches.

who was accused of being a witch and abandoned.
"While searching for the girl suddenly she came running towards me. She
was barefooted and wore a striped dress in blue and white.
"It was the day we rescued Uduak and if you meet her she will
present herself as my FIRST daughter because she is the first girl I
rescued.
"It is not a secret that Uduak has a very special place in my
heart. She has been under my wings for 12 years.
"This year she graduated and got her National Diploma in Mass
Communication.
"I have seen Uduak grow and embrace her strenghts.
"Today we celebrate the brilliant, powerful and beautiful young
woman she has become.

forever."
