According to the heartbroken wife, the job had been their main means of support and that without it they struggled to afford food.

She added that she had previously tried to contribute by selling small items on the street, but the little capital she had eventually ran out.

For long stretches, she said, the family had gone without meals, sometimes for up to a month at a time.

She recalled that after they fell behind on rent, their landlord evicted them and placed their belongings outside the premises in December of the previous year.

Since January, the family had been sleeping outside. She described how they pooled whatever small amounts of money they could find to buy food to share among themselves.

The lady went on to speak about her husband’s family background. She said that his mother was no longer with his father, who had died, and was now living with another man who did not want to have any contact with his wife’s children.

Turning to her own family, she explained that her grandmother, who lived nearby, had never approved of her marriage.

She said that even before she became pregnant, her grandmother had objected to the union because of her husband’s financial position.

Although he continued to visit and provide what he could during her pregnancy, his efforts did not change her grandmother’s stance.

Eventually, she was told to leave the home if she intended to remain with him, and she was subsequently sent away.

The lady insisted that she would not abandon her husband, arguing that she had no guarantee that another man would treat her better.

She described him as hardworking and responsible, noting that even when he earned very little he made sure she and the children ate first.

She said that while people mocked them for his lack of money, she remained proud of him and believed they were managing as a family.
