The two-year-old boy was ostracised and left to die in the streets last year because his family believed he was a “witch”.
After hearing about the boy left on his own, Anja Ringgren Loven launched a rescue mission to find him last January.
Photographs of the little boy, known as Hope, were shared around the world after Ms Loven uploaded them to her Facebook page.
Hope was in ill-health and required an operation a few months after he was found.
But a year on, Hope is now attending school and, from a series of Facebook post shared last week, appears to be happy, healthy and surrounded by loving friends and family.
