Nadia explained why she kept her pregnancy private
During the launch of their foundation, ‘Lola and Safari,‘ Arrow Bwoy and Nadia Mukami were overjoyed as they prepared to embark on their new journey together.
The name of the foundation was derived from the name the couple planned to give to a child they lost. It aims to help mothers and young girls who have difficulties during pregnancy and childbirth, as well as those who cannot afford maternity care.
“Lola and Safari Foundation also focuses on teenage girls who have dropped out of school due to early pregnancies and offers sensitization to young girls on planned pregnancies with the hashtag, ‘IT CAN WAIT’,” wrote Nadia.
The pregnant Nadia Mukami explained why she kept it private, noting that she did not hide from the limelight, but instead chose to embrace it differently.
“No one has to die just for gender’s sake. Just because you are a woman and you got a baby, it doesn’t have to put you in danger. Sometimes you are frustrated.”
“I remember when I got pregnant, God remembered me the most. I have done so many cooperative deals because I have embraced my journey privately. Watu wa blogs mko hapa najua mtasema Nadia alikuwa anaficha mimba, no. Pregnancy is a very private journey. There are days you wake up you have a big meeting but you just want to sleep the whole day. So sometimes some of us don’t want to reveal it out there,” said Nadia Mukami.
