"I got pregnant in March and I had my baby in December same year. That means I got pregnant when I was 13 plus. The most beautiful part is that, on my 15th birthday, my baby was barely five months old. I was marched out of the Barracks."

Living with guilt

She said she has been living with guilt because of the mistake she made, which was allowing her daughter to leave for Abuja.

In her words:

"I was lost already. I had stepped my leg one way in the world. There’s no need for lies, I had gotten my independence. One of the things that has not been easy for me was the fact that I allowed my daughter to leave for Abuja. The day I made that mistake was the day I left her to leave the house.
