Dr Prince Emmanuel O Benson M O G

My name is Prince Emmanuel Benson Okungae. I was born 40 years ago into the family of Engr. Benson Okungae, a retired Senior Officer in the Nigeria Airforce, from Edo State. 

The challenges of birth which I refused giving up on made me who I am today. I have lived to prove skeptics wrong as I have been doubted in a number of occasions especially from birth over my ability to survive this condition. I was reduced to an object of pity and sometimes cruel mockery by people who judged me for how i look on the outside. 

For almost seventeen years I was deaf and dumb, my parents informed me that one of the medical doctor in Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital, confided in them that I will be useless for the rest of my life and he advised them to go and throw me out or abandon me in the village, against all odds they stood by me with the believe that I can change, because they have the fear of God. 

Gods grace and intervention has helped me. I am grateful for everything God has done.
