Agbala Orphanage

Meet Praise Oladayo

Praise Oladayo was found by members of the evangelism team on August 15th, 2014 amidst the refuse of a neighbouring town’s dump site. He was found at six months, alone and abandoned. The innocence of Praise’s wide-eyed gaze held a world of untold stories, and his vulnerability tugged at their hearts. Without hesitation, the team rallied to his side, and Nigeria Police Officers bore witness to this incredible discovery.

Praise Oladayo was officially welcomed into our loving community, and Agbala Orphanage Home became his home. From that moment on, his life began to transform in ways that defied the odds. The nurturing care, unwavering love, and sense of belonging he found in the arms of our devoted caregivers became the foundation upon which his new life was built.

Over the years, Praise’s journey of transformation continues, one step at a time. He is receiving education that is empowering him to dream and thrive. The community is providing not just the essentials but also the emotional support and guidance needed for a brighter future.

Today, Praise Oladayo, once a child left to the harsh elements of a dump site, stands as a symbol of hope within our community. His radiant smile and boundless enthusiasm for life inspire us all. His story serves as a testament to the power of love, compassion, and collective care to heal wounds and rewrite the narrative of a child’s life. In Praise, we find the embodiment of the belief that every child, no matter their beginnings, deserves a chance to embrace a future filled with love, hope, and endless possibilities.
