ANOTHER case of a white child born to black parents has been reported. The child was also born to a Nigerian couple in Britain.

The fair-haired, green-eyed toddler is Emmanuel Ofor.   He was born to Ethelbertand  Nkemakonam Ofor, both from eastern part of the country.

Emmanuel  has two sisters, Afoma, six, and six-month-old Whitney, who are both black.

His baffled mum and dad have still not managed to find an explanation for the genetic mix-up three years after the youngster was born.

It comes after The Sun revealed, on Tuesday, how blonde, blue-eyed newborn Nmachi Ihegboro’s arrival had amazed black parents Ben and Angela who believe they have no white ancestry.

The baby girl is to undergo full genetic tests after doctors said the odds of her white colouring were “between many millions to one and a million to one.”

Reacting to Nmachi’s complexion, Professor Bryan Sykes, genetic expert at Oxford University in Britain, said: “Ths sounds a very unusual case. Quite extraordinary.

“All skin and eye colour are controlled by the pigment melanin.

“And there are about a dozen genes that control the amount or type of melanin.

“Even if there had been convergence of a pale version of the parents’ genes, there would have to be some form of white ancestry on both sides for the baby to look this way.

“As albinoism has been ruled out, it is more likely that there has been some other mutation that’s happened to produce this colouring.

“Without further tests, that is, in my opinion, the most rational explanation.”

Now Emmanuel  is also beginning to wonder why he looks different.

Emmanuel’s dad, Ethelbert, 43, said, on Wednesday: “It is something genetic but we don’t know what.

“Emmanuel has got to the age where he is questioning why he is white and his sisters are black.”
