Sad! 10 Year Old Boy Turns Beggar After Both Estranged Parents Abandon Him. (Photo)

This 10 year old boy was abandoned by both his
separated parents after both of them found new spouses
– each others new spouse didn’t want a stepson in
their household causing the poor boy to be rejected.
A social media user shared the quite unfortunate story.
Read below:
A ten year-old-boy, simply identified as Sayyid, is
roaming the streets of Kano in search of food and
shelter, following the separation of his parents.
The ordeal of the minor started two years ago when his
mother’s new husband said he would not accept
“agola” (a derogatory term for a stepson) in his home.
At this point the boy had no option but to go back to
father, who just married a richer woman and settled in
her house.
Narrating his situation to Freedom Radio, a local station
in Kano, Sayyid said when he returned to his father, his
father’s new wife also said she would not accept “agola”
in her house.
According to Sayyid, his father then concurred with his
bride’s directive and sent him away.
Since then, Sayyid had no option but to wander around
the city in search of food and shelter.
“I join beggars to get what to eat, and I sleep anywhere
I find myself,” he said.
“It is always difficult for me to get what to eat. My
dream is to go to school and become rich so that I can
buy food to people.”
