My mom was raped as a teenager – Brymo reveals
Brymo, the controversial singer, disclosed that there are enigmatic circumstances surrounding his birth.
He revealed that his mother was sexually assaulted as a teenager, and as a result, her menstrual cycle ceased. During a candid conversation with Chude Jideonwo, Brymo shared that despite his mother’s lack of menstruation for years, she was unaware of her pregnancy while she and his father sought solutions in various spiritual places.
Brymo emphasized that his mother’s bravery in reporting her abuser taught him the value of courage.
He said: “The story surrounding my birth and the entire family is weird. There are always mysteries.
“There is a story of my mum, she had a traumatic experience, a sexual experience as a teenage girl. It was a rape incident. And for some weird reasons, she didn’t see her period anymore afterwards. And that kept on like that for three years or so till she met my dad.
“While they were taking her round herbalists and doctors, and pastors and imams, wherever they could go, so she could start bleeding, a woman needed to see her period before she could get pregnant, well, it happened that she was already pregnant, five months in and there was no blood. So, that was strange right? I had to kick for her to know that a child was there.
“While everyone was giving her medicine to drink, they were trying to force an abortion without knowing [laughs].”
