Photos: Man who was ridiculed for his appearance joins school

Nsanzimana Elie.

A man identified as Nsanzimana Elie who broke the internet due to a condition that changed his appearance has finally joined a school. According to a video posted on YouTube, Elie joined Ubumwe Community Center (UCC), in Gisenyi, Rwanda, with hopes that he will at least learn basic human skills.
