The video creator said his birth certificate was found after his uncle’s daughter saw it while she was clearing his room. Lucky Udu thanked God for his uncle's role in his life as he prayed for his soul to rest in peace.

Lucky Udu wrote:

“For the first time in my life, I just found out that my native name is Ehioma. Can you imagine? All this while, I never knew! I always thought my name was just Lucky David Udu, but now I’m not even sure if David is really my middle name or if I just assumed it lol.
"Another surprise? I’m also just discovering my mother’s full name too. Growing up, I didn’t have much to hold on to when it came to family history. My dad passed away when I was around 2 years old, and my mom followed a few years later when I was about 5. Being an orphan from such a young age without siblings or grandparents meant I had to figure out life on my own. It’s been tough, but every piece of my past that I uncover as I go through this journey of life feels like a treasure to me.

"This morning, my uncle’s daughter sent me this picture along with my birth certificate. She found them while clearing out his room after his passing on the 23rd of December. (May his soul rest in peace). It’s amazing how something so simple can mean so much. This is a piece of my history, and it feels like part of my life and identity has just been restored.
"I pray for my uncle’s soul to rest in peace, and I’m grateful for the role he played in my life. To everyone out there, it’s not too late to know your roots. Ask questions, talk to your elders, and keep records safe. You never know how much a little piece of information can mean to you or how it can change the way you see yourself.”
