Born Different: The Story of a Nigerian Girl with Albinism That Stunned The Internet

Ben and Angela had two children already when they got that unusual luck of having a daughter who wasn’t what anyone expected her to be – she was born with light skin but her parents were black.
This event led to the diagnosis of their daughter which indicated that she had albinism, a genetic disorder that alters a person’s physical traits without affecting their physiological well-being. With her golden locks, pale skin tone and bright gray pupils in her eyes she looked very pretty.

In spite of having an uncommon look, the girl still possessed some facial characteristics of her ethnicity since albinism only alters colors. According to family members and friends, she was so much like father in face.


As a child, the girl lived a relatively average life by going to school and playing with other children her age. The internet was ablaze with conversations about her incredible appearance having caught everyone’s attention.
