January 2023,
Diana comes from a polygamist family of two wives and 13 children. The family is extremely poor. They have lost their livestock to the drought and therefore have no income. Diana’s father looks at her as a source of income and wants to marry her off. Diana is determined to get an education so she went to her local MGEF board member and asked for help. Diana was accepted and is happy to be back at school with no fears of unpaid school fees or forced marriage.
