The identified as Nneka Anyachebelu, gave birth to an autistic son 18 years ago and thought her life had caved in with misery.

According to Nneka Anyachebelu, when her son was born with autism, she thought her world was in shambles as she was made to pay extra attention to certain things she had not been prepared for. She had admittedly prayed for her son to die, to escape her reality and misery.

However, 18 years down the line, her story has changed from one of sorrow and regret, to joy and happiness as well as gratitude.

Below is what she had to say about her touching story:

I PRAYED FOR HIM TO DIE. Don’t judge me, wait until you hear me out.

#‎Dilemma‬#Myonlyson#Autism#nohope#prayernotanswered#gaveupthefight

He was a healthy awesome child when I had him but by age 2 we noticed there was something wrong. There was no eye contact, he could not talk, didn’t understand instructions, and so many other bad vibes.

That was when my nightmare started.

I ran from pillar to post seeking solution. In some places they said he was partially deaf at others they said it was Autism. Up until then I never heard the word Autism. The information I got about it was My life stood still. No school would take him in as he couldn’t settle.

Finally and luckily an Indian lady with a nursery school took him in, but my heart broke the day I went to pick him up from school and asked her politely how he was doing. Her response was “i don’t know what to do with him i’m just a teacher not a psychiatrist”. I cried all the way home. Thoughts bombarded my mind. Worst of all there was no answer to the tormenting thoughts.

An only son, Autism, was it generational or the devil? No answer! Up until then I was having a swell time living my life to the fullest… But with this dilemma I crawled to God. I attended every Christian gathering, crusade, vigils, just name it. I prayed, prayed, cried, fasted, sowed seeds but nothing happened.

The years went by and it seemingly got worse. People were beginning to notice there was a problem I couldn’t hide it any more. (By the way, don’t try hiding your shame if God doesn’t hide it you can’t hide it) My husband was tired. My mother who was perpetually encouraging me was tired, I was tired, exhausted and tired of casting, binding, fighting and faithing it, so I prayed for Him to die so I could move on with my life. (I wanted a short cut) He didn’t die instead he grew.

Seeing God wasn’t ready to take him I went back to God again in prayer, I repented and continued from where I stopped. Running from pillar to post, church to church.

At one church I was told to go on one week dry fast with consistent midnight prayers. At midnight when I came down to pray I was usually afraid. One night as I came down for the prayer routine, I heard a voice say to me how can you be praying and afraid. You are afraid because you do not know the God you are praying to. At that point I packed up and went on a quest to know this GOD! I stayed alone for 2 weeks with only one prayer point. ( God if you are real let me know you.). I spent more time within those weeks studying the Word of God, and through the pages of the Bible I came to know this GOD.

After that 2 weeks of word immersion I had peace like I never had since the ordeal started. The burden for my son to speak or get normal left me. I was just at peace with God and the World.

About 3 weeks later we travelled to England on Holiday. We were in a shop on Oxford street when my son that had never spoken came to me tapped me and asked me a question.

His first words to me were “where is kamsy?” He was asking for His older sister. That was how my son started talking. One thing led to another; he started doing things he couldn’t do and like magic caught up with his age mates. It was like Magic! No, Miracle.!

Today I celebrate God as He turns 18. There is nothing we don’t talk about now. From his school work to the girls that like him and the ones he likes, lol..

Sometimes I even scold him that he talks too much, correcting him that as a gentleman he shouldn’t talk much. How we so quickly forget…smh…I can’t thank God enough for him.

Through my trial with him, I was reconnected back to God, I found my purpose in life, and my ministry was birthed. (That is another story for another day).

I encourage you today in your own trial to fight on. No short cut. God has not disappeared, take your eyes off your problem (if you can) seek him and he will do the needful plus much more i’m still praying… during my prayers today, I PRAYED FOR HIM TO LIVE AND SHOW FORTH THE GLORY OF GOD.

Muslims all over the world are united by Ramadan right now.

They’re all fasting to commemorate the first revelation of the Quran to Muhammad according to Islamic belief.

So that means they have to fast all day and eat twice, early in the morning for suhur and in the evening for iftar.

To release some laugh hormones and reduce stress, here are some memes every Muslim can relate to.

1. When you’ve been living life the fullest all year and for one month, you’re the most devout Muslim ever.

2. When you try to sleep all day so you forget food

I had a one night stand with a girl I met in one of the popular club in Port Harcourt.

Actually, I met her through my friend’s younger sister on that fateful day. I was half-drunk, but I know I slept with her and discharged her in the morning.

This girl came back last weekend to tell me she is two month pregnant for me. This is someone I slept with just once. I put a call through to my friend’s sister and she told me to send her away, she said the girl is a prostitute and that she just wants to pin another man’s baby on me.

The girl in question has sworn I’m the father of the baby. I’m so confused right now as i don’t even know this girl, so its hard to marry her. She also said she ain’t gonna abort the baby.

Please, what do i do?

You really need to watch out for whoever you pick up at the bar or club!

If you have a habit of picking random ladies in clubs and buying them beer, be very careful or you will end up counting losses.

This man reportedly spotted a hot lady in a Nairobi club and started enjoying a drink with her not knowing that she was preying on men with the aim of spiking their drinks.

According to those who know him, he had shared the photo with the girl on his social media page last night telling the world he was enjoying himself. By this morning, the photos and news of him lying down in the club’s toilet had gone viral

She is believed to have spiked his drink before stealing his valuables. The lady is currently being wanted.

See photos that are going round on social media below..

This photo showing a young woman posing n*ked with her underage son, has gone viral and is eliciting serious backlash from people.

It is no longer a new thing for women to be seen striking nude poses for the camera. It has, in fact, become a trend among ladies.

However this particular photo has sparked outrage on the internet after it emerged.

Many social media users have condemned the pose as being too suggestive and not ideal for the young boy.

See some of their comments below:

A man who has suddenly found himself in serious trauma over a new revelation he made, has come out to seek immediate help.

My name is Samuel. I am a fashion designer. I have been dating a girl for the past four years.
‎
Though, we are from different ethnic group, I truly love her because she’s got all the qualities I need in a woman.
She’s currently in her final year in one of the universities in the South-South.

Few weeks ago, I went to visit my doctor friend to inform him about my wedding and he asked if I had done my genotype test. He was shocked when I told him we haven’t done the test.

He then advised us to go for the test to ascertain our genotype.

I also informed my fiancee who is in school to do same because she doesn’t know hers. She did that almost immediately and told me the result was AS.

I just did mine only to discover that I am also AS.

The doctor advised me not to marry her because we may end up giving birth to a sickler.

I am afraid of telling her because both of us have sacrificed a lot for this relationship. She has been with me even when I had nothing and I don’t want to lose her. Another fear is that she may hurt herself if I tell her the wedding won’t hold.

She’s been troubling me to tell her my own status but I told her I haven’t done it.

I need advise. Is there anyway out for us? Do we have any hope?

At the moment, I’ve bought everything needed for the traditional marriage and I am afraid of telling my fiancee and my in-law the latest development.

I need your advice, please.

A man who had obviously been moved to action by his horny state, asked a lady to send him a photo of herself wearing only a bra.

The lady agreed but when she sent him a photo, the man was shocked by it.

Below is what she sent the man:

She then shared the story with followers on Instagram.

Below is how she put it:

These National Youth Service Corps members did not get up on time to partake in mandatory morning activities and were given a punishment to serve.

Their punishment was to carry their beds on their head and march round the parade ground several times in the full view of everyone.

After marching round many times, they were then asked to lay their beds in the middle of the parade ground and continue their sleep there.

Although the particular camp ground this took place is not yet known, social media users have found the development a very funny one.
