And it came as a shock to the community when one day, Agnes dressed in uniform and took it upon herself to crawl all the way to school.
While stressing that the girl's condition can be corrected by surgery, Agnes' mum bemoaned financial constraints as the reason why they haven't pushed for treatment for the 9-year-old.
