This is a call for a serious prayer. If you have had
compassion for the little four-year –old Abraham after reading his stories
online, please, he urgently needs your prayer. Right now, according to reports
we have gathered, his condition has worsened in the Lagos State University
Teaching Hospital, Ikeja where he is currently receiving treatment. For those
who have not read his story… Little Abraham pictured below was attacked by two
ferocious Germane dogs at his home in Igando Lagos on September 25th. The
heart-breaking part of the incident was that 7 policemen and some sympathizers
stayed aloof watching the dogs eat the boy’s scrap for fear of being attacked
as well. Thank God for his mother who arrived the scene, fought the dogs and
snatch away his son from their scavenging jaws. In our last update, we had
brought you a report on an ongoing debate which was centered on whether the
dogs should be killed or released to the owner.
As at that time, the police in custody of the two German dogs, says
that they were waiting for Court order
before they can euthanize the dogs and Odia, Abraham’s father has complained
that the police has been harassing him to order for the release of the dogs to
the owner.
Now, on his present condition, his father, Odia, who has
been worried over frustrated attempts to get the report of his medical
condition from some medical officers of the hospital said,
“My boy still complains of pains in different parts of his body. Also, when they open the bandage on his head, you will see that there is no much difference. It is still like the first time the incident happened. In fact, for up to two weeks no consultant or doctor attended to him and his head smells.”
“We have been told he may still have to be admitted for six months or up to one year, for the doctor to do a skin-grafting surgery on his open skull, they cut skin from parts of his body, to cover up the skull.”

We will continue to bring you more updates on Abraham’s
condition but right now, if you are touched by his story and wishes that
Abraham survives this ordeal, please drop a prayer for him. That is a request
from his parents.
Abraham, BUM is concerned about you and your condition.
We do not want you to die. We pray for God’s infinite mercies upon you. May he
fight this battle for you, heal you and fill your mouth with testimonies, Amen.
