No.
How long did you date the man?
He was not my friend.
So, what happened?
My girlfriend and I were going to my uncle’s place in Asaba but somehow, I lost the address of the place. So we were stranded that night; we didn’t know what to do. We now met the man and told him what happened to us. He now accommodated us in his house. That night, he gave me food to eat. The following day I left. I did not know I was pregnant.
Did he rape you?
Something like that. The food I ate made me sleep off.
Was he the first man to sleep with you?
Yes.
Your girlfriend also slept in the same house
Yes, with the guy’s friend.
His friend slept with your friend?
I don’t know. She did not tell me.

Who did it?
My boyfriend.
He asked you to abort it?
No. He wanted to marry me but I don’t like him for marriage.
How old was the pregnancy before the abortion?
One month.
Do you like sex?
Please, why are you asking me all these questions? No. I don’t. But I will for my loved one.
Hope you are now using condoms?
Yes.
Have you done HIV test?
Yes.
When?
Last two months.
Why? Did you suspect that you were infected?
How? No.
Why did you go for the test?
Nothing. I just went.
There must be a reason for doing that. Tell me the truth
Ok. A man came to seek my hand in marriage. That was why I went.
Why didn’t you marry him?
I don’t like him.
How much did you save from hustling?
I don’t have any money, please.
What did you do with the money you made?
I used it to take care of my school fees, house rent and myself.
How much are your school fees and house rent?
My school fees is N20,000 while my house rent is N100,000 a year. It is a self-contain apartment but I have a roommate.
Do you go to church?
Yes. I do.
After sleeping with a man in a hotel at night, you go to church in the morning?
Not always.
Why did you stop hustling?
I’m tired of it.
Is it because you are no longer making enough money?
It’s not like that. I want to settle down. I’m tired.
You are tired of everyday sex?
Yes. I want to marry. I need God’s help in my life.
If a man offers you like N20,000 for a night, will you reject it?
Yes. I’m tired.
Please sir, I need help. I only look up to God for help.
When was the last time you went out on business?
I can’t remember the date but it was on a Sunday. I think it was in May.
So, no amount of money can make you do it?
Yes sir.
