My Father and Alhaji Tamuna came home that evening and told me to prepare myself for marriage in less than a months’ time. In as much as I knew I was betrothed to Alhaji Tamuna, I did not expect that they would want me to actually get married at such a tender age.

I woke up in the morning and knew that I couldn’t and shouldn’t spend another night on the street so after begging for transport money, I went back ......
