Bukuku added that the only woman who ends up as a single mother is insane but it rarely happens. In her statement, domestic violence and infidelity have made many women single mothers.
“Ushawahi kusikia wanawake waliochinjwa au kufanyiwa ukatili? Ushawahi kumwona Mwanamke akiambiwa shuka kitandani nilale na Mwanamke mwingine halafu wewe kalale na watoto?” She posed.
