In other news, a 23-year-old Kenyan lady identified as Faith Cherop has said she escaped child marriage to further her education, an event that has made her a happy woman.

She said her father was not supportive of her education when she started schooling, but she completed her primary education.

Faith said she had to stay at home because her father could not afford sending her to secondary school.

She said: "Even if he could, he would only take my brothers. He said I had to stay at home or get married. In my community, child marriage has been practiced for a long time but lately, the government has stepped up efforts to stop it. Anyone found engaging in this is prosecuted."
