My Name is
Godiya
Godiya
Godiya’s father died before she was born, and her mother died when she was a year old. She was then placed in the care of her elderly grandmother. Godiya's grandmother was impoverished and, though she tried, unable to care for Godiya. She arrived at the Rafiki Village Nigeria in 2006 and soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving family environment at the Village. Godiya says that God has made Himself known to her through His Word. She continues to pray to do well academically. Godiya also prays to grow spiritually and to display the fruit of the spirit to others.
