Irene Kemunto Mogaka delivered her first child while she was in Standard Eight. Three years later, while in Form Two, she got a second baby, marking the end of her education journey.
In most African societies, news of a new baby joining the family is usually welcomed with joy and celebration. But to Kemunto, the delivery of her second-born turned out to be a nightmare for the new mother who was rejected and later thrown out of her parents’ home, by the people she once depended on for security and love.
