  • When John Ohaga was in high school, he received a letter that left him confused. The author claimed to be his father and wanted him back. His parents neither confirmed nor denied this but assured him that he was their son. John shares with us a snippet of his childhood and intrigues of being a firstborn son of 2 families.

    A very inspiring and challenging story,especially to the young men who’re afraid to marry single women ,you may never know anything about the future of the unborn child.Getting pregnant and rejected is not the end of the world,there’s always a God’s moment in such a situation.

    Stories of fathers rejecting their children at conception only to weave their way back into their lives once the children are well established are not uncommon. Your father (the one that brought you up as his own) is a true hero... What a gem!

    @Engage - please share the unedited version. Please. The unedited version touches more on his biological Dad and half-brother Micheal. It would give a more complete picture of the beautiful complexities, especially as his relationship with Michael was deep. Thank you!!!

    This is such a severely edited version of the story John told, that leads to inaccuracies such as the implication that he received the letter whilst in primary school

      I’m sure the story is well told however the editing could be better

      Who would have been the problem,a man who walked out in a pregnant woman or a child who was adopted by a caring man who loved the mom so much.

    • @walkershambu3120
      @walkershambu3120 Před 10 měsíci +2

      Of course his biological father was wrong to leave a pregnant woman hanging... But the child speaks so highly of him than his step father if you listen and analyze critically

      Maybe for him his step father is the more legitimate father, the one he trusts more.
