Ethiopian mother Meaza A, mother, and Tigist T, sister are searching for Rediet and Natael who were adopted together from Toukoul in 2003. Natnael was 9 years old and Rediet was 5. The children were sent to different orphanages at first. Nathanael joined Abebech Gobena and Rediet joined Toukoul. When it came time for Rediate to be adopted, she refused to be adopted without her brother, so Natnael was transferred to Toukoul and they were adopted together. Their mothers were listed as Zemen and Firew, who are Meaza’s sisters.
