The Wife of the governor of Anambra State, Mr. Nonye Soludo, has promised to ensure that the thirteen-year-old girl, who was molested and impregnated by her seventy-five-year-old guardian receives full care and attains her life’s dreams.
Mrs. Soludo, who made the promise when she received the girl and her baby at the Governor’s Lodge, Amawbia, explained that the girl would be given all the support she needs to raise her baby, attain standard education and become a useful asset to her family and Anambra State.
Esther, a primary five pupil, lived with her seventy-five-year-old guardian in Awka.
It was during her stay that the septuagenarian, who is now in Police net, began to sexually abuse her, which resulted to pregnancy.
Her story went viral on social media, attracting the attention of the Governor’s wife and the Anambra State Ministry of Women and Social Welfare, both of whom, collaborated for immediate action.
In her chat with the girl, Mrs. Soludo accompanied by the Commissioner for Women and Social Welfare, Mrs. Ify Obinabo, assured her that she would get all the support she needs to succeed, and also assured that she would always be in touch to ensure that her baby is well taken care of.
