Nollywood actress, Ada Ameh got pregnant when she was a teenager. During her speech at the Benson Idahosa University’s 14th Cultural Day Celebration, she revealed that she dropped out of secondary school at 14 when she became pregnant with her daughter.
The single mother said:
“Going through life as a single mother was not an easy thing at all but today I am proud to call myself a proud single mother because whenever I see my daughter I am glad.
” I want you to understand that even though I dropped out of secondary school, I am a proud single mother. Just take it that my life is a history. If not for God, I don’t know where I would have been.
“My major concern is for the young girls. I am not a victim, I am a proud single mother. Today my child is my school; she was the school that I graduated from. My first degree was that woman. You will not understand what it means to become pregnant at fourteen.”
