“My name is Amadou and I am 11 years old. I am a former street child. I moved from my village and used to live in the streets of Yaoundé, the capital city of Cameroon.
I left my village because there was a lot of violence at home. My father had many wives and children which caused a lot of conflict.
As a street child, I lived in groups under bridges, in abandoned buildings and even in open fields around Yaoundé. But now with the support from these people [Plan] I am living in a children’s home and I have been able to go back to school. I am happier now.”
