My name is Uwanse Inèse, and at 25 years old, I am a single mother. The history we've lived through led to my family's separation, denying me the chance to experience a mother's presence. As the eldest among my three siblings, I was the only child of my mother; my father, however, had two others from different relationships. I assumed the role of a single mother during my final year of college.
To me, motherhood signifies profound change and transformation — a growth into someone stronger than before. It involves enduring countless challenges and making new choices, all while discovering what truly matters amidst a multitude of needs.
