I don’t have a mum today because of a stepdad who wanted to take control of everything.
Even though I was nine at the time, I still remember my relatives searching for my missing mother.
It took them about a month before they could find her body. That experience had a serious impact on my life.
God blessed me with marriage at the age 19, but I feel it didn’t work because of my childhood.
Why would you choose to rape and kill someone you claim to love?
What about the kids she’s leaving behind?
Many kids are suffering because of jealous husbands and boyfriends.
It’s better to leave or divorce someone rather than to kill them.
It’s time to tackle gender-based violence head-on. Enough is enough!
