11 years old class five pupil, Mamie Sam of Roman Catholic primary
school in Sierra Leone is currently calling on government and other
humanitarian organizations to immediately come to her aid as she is not
at peace at the moment.
She currently resides with both of her
grand parents Saidu Moriba and Mamie Sellu at 9 Poimie road, Lago square
section Sebwema town. Speaking to Awoko at her residence she explained
that some time last year she went on a fishing expedition together with
her grand mother and other women in the town.
After the exercise she
started experiencing her Bosom becoming large. While taking bath
together with the elders in the stream one of the women spoke about her
Bosom saying her Bosom is becoming abnormal and it is not a good thing
for her.
During the night hour she said her Bosom scratched
throughout the night giving her sleepless night and it’s kept projecting
up to the current length as she continue to scratch. The following
morning when she went to school her class and school mates were
provoking her and there after she stopped going to school almost a year
now.
She started her schooling at the Ansarul Primary School from
classes 1 to 3 and then continued to Roman Catholic Primary School from
classes 4 to 5. She maintained that her parents have sought medical
attention at Nixon Memorial hospital at Segbwema and several herbalists
within the community but no improvement.
Her grand father Saidu
Moriba said this is the first time he is seeing such wonder in his life
time, and that they are baffled as what to do to save her from this
trouble. He revealed that several prayers and sacrifices have been done
on her behalf but the problem still remains and they are asking for
assistance.
