Doctors Said I Couldn’t Have Children; Now I Have a Boy and a Set of Twins


“I was told shortly after I got married in 2012 that I had PCOS and I would find it difficult to conceive because I wasn't ovulating, says Moni Onibata. “I refused to let the doctors report sink in but held on to God's promises. Few months after my period flow changed, instead of having the normal blood flow of 5 days, I bled for 60-90 days and had just 2-3 weeks break. How I survived that period, I don't know but God kept me. At a point, my GP said I was anaemic. And then people began to ask when we will be having our babies and my constant answer was, ‘we were not yet ready’”. 

“Then came August 2013 during the Holy Ghost Convention of the Redeemed Christian Church of God ( I watched the Live transmission on TV) and Daddy Adeboye asked those who had their babies within the period of the Last convention and that service to come with their babies. While they danced to the altar, I cried to God silently, asking for my own baby. Then my hubby, #kaykums who was oblivious of my prayers, just spoke and said ‘by this time next year, we will have a son’ and he named him. And yes, God honoured it. Exactly that time the next year, we had a son. It was a miracle.

“Two years after I began to panic, I wanted to be sure God had healed me and I could have more children. Then we began trying for another baby...I saw my period again. I was devastated and I wept.( I am sure God must have been laughing at me). The next month, I had a dream where my mum was telling me I was pregnant. Few weeks after, I was confirmed pregnant. Not just that, I was carrying a set of twins. I was in awe of God...a set of twins!! From being told I was not ovulating to carrying a set of twins. Haba this God!!! And after 9months, a week after our wedding anniversary they were delivered.”

“I don't know what you have been told but one thing I know is if God could bring to nought a negative report, He is able to turn your situation around....Nothing can stop  him from fulfilling his promises concerning you”, assured Moni Onibata.

“I have decided to share my testimony of God Mercies to bring Glory to his name and encourage someone today”, she added.

My Quest to Be ‘Cool’: Dealing With Low Self Esteem

Image
I was born in Sekondi to a nurse and a farmer. At about 5 years, we moved to Komenda, a small town in the Central Region of Ghana. Even though I was one of the best students in primary school, I always felt ‘little’ when we travelled to cities like Cape Coast, Accra and Takoradi. I felt everyone there was more beautiful, more intelligent, spoke better English and was generally better than me. I had a similar experience in secondary school, always looking down on myself and feeling I was not good enough. Oh how I wished I were an ‘Accra girl’ because I thought they were so cool! Yet, when my family finally moved to Accra, I still didn’t feel cool. On top of this I didn’t even have a boyfriend! If only I could get a boyfriend, then I will be cool like the other girls… I thought. In University, I met some really wonderful friends, some of whom were from ‘rich’ families and I thought being friends with them will make me feel cool. I didn’t. I had the opportunity to start tr...

Agony of a Child Bride!!!

My Name Is Fatima Mustapha. I Am 21 Years Old. I Am From Makarfi In Kaduna State. I Would Like To Share My Divorce Diaries With You . I was married off at age 11. In my village, most of us were married by age 12 to preserve our purity. I am still not sure what that means. I never thought it would happen to me because my parents allowed me to attend school instead of hawking and I loved school alot. In my school nobody made me do extra work because I was a girl. I loved school because I loved coming first and being ahead of the boys in my class. I was in JS2 when my mother started talking about getting me married. I honestly thought she was joking until my uncle brought his friend to our house as my suitor. My suitor, Malam Faruk was a shoe seller and cobbler in Zaria. He was 42 years old and my parents felt he would make a good husband. I did not understand what they were all talking about. I really did not understand what I would do with a husband. So that’s how Malam F...
