by Guest Wed Feb 01, 2017 6:08 pm
Exactly one year ago, Hope was living on the streets of Nigeria, riddled with worms, on the brink of starvation and cast out from his community accused of being a "witch". This image of Danish philanthropist Anja Ringgren Lovén giving water to Hope was shared around the world.

Hope was taken to the African Children's Aid Education and Development Foundation (ACAEDF), which Lovén founded with her husband David.

Now, new pictures shared by Lovén on her Facebook page reveal the extraordinary transformation he has undergone.

"On the 30 of January 2016 I went on a rescue mission with David Emmanuel Umem, Nsidibe Orok and our Nigerian team," Lovén wrote on Facebook. "A rescue mission that went viral, and today it's exactly 1 year ago the world came to know a young little boy called Hope."
