On Monday, a Nairobi woman, Mariam, shared a heartbreaking story about a shocking encounter with her biological father, who had abandoned her 16 years ago. Mariam, who works as a sex worker in Nairobi, revealed the incident during an emotional interview.
She explained that a man approached her along Koinange Street and invited her to a nearby guest room. They spent the night together, unaware of their true relationship.
The next morning, after exchanging phone numbers, the man asked Mariam her name and introduced himself. That was the moment the shocking truth came to light.
Mariam was left in tears after learning that the man she had spent the night with was actually her father.
The revelation was equally shocking for the man, who realized that the woman in front of him was the daughter he had abandoned as a child. Both were left stunned and embarrassed by the unexpected and painful discovery.
Mariam also opened up about her life circumstances, revealing that her mother had guided her into sex work instead of helping her find another way to earn a living.
She said she blames her mother for pushing her into a life that eventually led to this painful encounter.
The story has sparked sympathy among Kenyans, highlighting the struggles faced by young women in difficult circumstances and the long-lasting effects of parental abandonment.
