It is alleged that her mother had separated from her father long before he died. Her father’s aged mother also lives with them. So the 16-year-old girl is taking care of herself, her granny, and 4 other siblings from the proceeds she gets from the bike repair business.

This however isn’t a barrier to her educational performance. Also, her teacher attested that in spite of the burden on her neck, she was still one of the school’s best students.

The young girl also said she had dreamt of studying mechanical engineering at the university. She hopes for a miracle that will help her achieve her dreams.
