A mother known as Maame Ama Dapaa from Dunkwa narrates how their neighbour slept with her 15 years ago girl and got her pregnant two years ago. The mother detailed that she has been taken proper care of her 15 years old daughter called Bernice and made sure she doesn’t lack anything in school. One day she found out that their neighbour known as Yaw who is also 28 years old slept with her daughter.
She made her investigation and came to know that they even got into a relationship after they had the sèxual encounter. Maame Ama said she gave a warning Yaw to stay away from her daughter. She even told him that she wants a better future for the child so she will not think twice but will arrest him if he continued sleeping with her. Still, these two youngsters didn’t listen to her but went ahead with their relationship.
After Bernice completed school, she made preparation and sent her to the boarding house to further her education in the Senior high school. She received information three months later that her daughter was even pregnant before she went to the school. When the child came home she made it clear to the man who impregnated her and he accepted to perform his duties till she gave birth.
The mother added that she has hope to send her daughter back to school but Yaw again slept with the young girl and impregnated her 8 months after she gave birth. She lost patience and decided to starve her daughter for some days in order to punish her for destroying her future. Bernice stayed indoors for two weeks without giving her food to eat. Her husband also became angry and decided not to provide her anything but rather allow their neighbour to marry her.
Yaw’s family had a meeting with them and came into a conclusion to compensate them with Ghc10,000 for impregnating Bernice at that stage. They even promised to pay for the money they will need to send the child back to school after she gives birth. They accept their decision and was looking forward for them to bring them the compensation they promised to pay but till now Yaw has not give a penny. The mother is demanding the Ghc10,000 from her daughter’s boyfriend and also he should make preparations to send the child back to school.
