Moringa Plant Or Not?

The plant I have

Here is a picture of an a plant that blooms a red flower, green leaves in three and grows fast if given lots of water. Someone gave me seeds a year ago, believing it to be Moringa but turns out different from what I have seen of a Moringa. The similarities are the way the branches are arrange but the leaves are way too big compared to a Moringa, noting the shapes totally don't resemble. Someone said to me that the rich soil may have contributed to the bigger leaves, unlike Moringa's leaf the size of a medium fingernail. This plant's leaves are almost three times bigger and there's only three while Moringa has lots. The seeds are tiny as a dot and pitch black. Any idea what plant is this? For now, I pose the question - Is this moringa plant or not?
