Singer Maheeda I Rejected N2Million Offer for my child

Maheeda was once offered N2 million from the man who got her pregnant when she was 17 but she rejected the money and
went away with her, in an interview she talked about why she had to leave the money and why her daughter means the world to her.

She said "I got pregnant for my boyfriend about 13 years ago when I was just 17, in Kano. I think his family was tribalist
because they didn't want me around, so they offered me N2million, which was a lot of money back then, to leave the baby and go. I actually wanted to accept the money but I thought to myself, 'Hey, you're an orphan and this is the only blood you have.' So, I left the money and decided to leave with my daughter.

And what was the boyfriend's reaction?

"He was present all through and he never said anything, which was strange. I think he respected his family too much to intervene and fight for his daughter. I think maybe because she's a girl, that's why he didn't say anything. Ever since then it has been just me and, besides, I don't want to ask anything because I know they wanted the child and not me, and I can't afford to lose her. She's the only thing that I have."
