And the least we can say is that the latter has not had an easy life, as explained by a member of his family in an interview with a magazine.
“He lives with us. He’s my mother’s great-uncle. My little sister Genesis, 7, is the one you see in the photo. He always took me out for a snack when he left work on the weekends. He never had a family as he married young and after three years of marriage his wife was killed in an assault. His family mistreated him and that is why my mother offered him to live with us” .
The young woman confides that the grandfather loves taking care of little Genesis. He doesn’t hesitate to cross the town to drive her to school .
