I finally get to watch this movie after some of my friends recommend it for me but I had to keep skipping it since I was watching some particular series which I'm yet to complete, I have been watching nollywood based movie nowadays and they really worth my time since they are interesting and do pass some messages across. I get to find out some of my favourite actors were in this movies especially the main character ade in person of lateef adedimeji, who always play some funny characters in movies especially with his funny language and intonation.
The story started in a small town where ade live with her sister, pregnant mom and grandpa, they were poor and there were no social amenities even school in their area. He had a dream one day which he narrate to his sister, that he got carried away but someone reach out and help him out, his sister discarded it and said it is false until one day something bit him in the river while playing with his friends, they actually taught it was nothing until that bite turn to his worst nightmare, the place started scratching him and it swell, the more he scratch it, the more it keep itching him, since his grandpa was the village medicine man, he tried his best locally but it keep getting worst, day by day it turn to a big wound and his leg started decaying bit by bit, they couldn't give up and keep on trying with the hope that they will get solution one day.
One day the village evangelism team came to the village to check out their health condition and also give out free drugs, they saw the boy condition but couldn't give proper care but one of them decided to write a petition to their superiors abroad who decided to pay up all the medical expenses, ade was rush to the hospital in lagos and they figure out he was suffering from buruli ulcer, they treated him after performing some surgery, he spent month before he recovery but he couldn't walk completely again. His recovery story was so touching because they didn't believe he could survive it, after some years, the same woman who sponsor his surgery decided to send him to school even though he decline since he was really old enough but his grandpa advise him to take the opportunity so he wont regret in future, Ade did and promise he will be a medical doctor so he could help others.
Things weren't that easy, he was the oldest in his class and he had to start from primary one so he can learn how to read and write, he didn't give up and he really graduated excellently and was admitted into medicine & surgery in the university level. Things started getting hard when he failed some subject, he gave up and ran back to the village with the hope of quitting everything, he was broken and cried for days without eating but his sister, foster parent and his girlfriend didn't give up on him, after several trial to encourage him, he went back to school and he was able to fulfil his long dream of becoming a surgeon then he went back to the hospital that saved him from the buruli ulcer to put his profession into practice. He never give up until he realise his goals.
