A Nigerian woman, Lister Mathew Osas, has reunited her mother with three children who had been separated from her for more than three decades after launching a public appeal for help. The emotional reunion came just two days after Osas shared her family’s story online, prompting widespread support from people in Nigeria and Cameroon who helped trace the siblings.
According to Osas, her Cameroonian father allegedly took the three children away from their mother in Kaduna over 30 years ago before relocating to Cameroon. Despite years of searching, the family had been unable to find them, with her mother remaining in Kaduna in the hope of one day seeing her children again. The online appeal quickly gained traction, leading to the successful reconnection of the separated family.
Osas shared an emotional video of the reunion on social media, expressing gratitude to everyone who shared the appeal and helped make the reunion possible. The story has since inspired thousands of Nigerians, with many describing it as a powerful reminder of the impact of social media and collective public support in reuniting families.
