It was moving and inspiring but it didn’t end there.

Nigerian singer, Flavour visited Liberia three months ago where he met a visually impaired boy at an orphanage called Liberia Crusader for Peace Village.
According to a speaker at the event where they met, Semah’s ultimate desire was to come in contact with the highlife singer.
