Mother empties bank account to protect daughter
In the video, the woman explains that she could not normally afford a plane ticket, but due to the rising rate of kidnappings in the country, she decided her daughter needed to fly.
@diary.of.chefmerc7 revealed in her post that she emptied her bank account just to make sure her daughter could board a plane and avoid being abducted.
She wrote in the emotional post:
"Kidnapping forced me to put my child on a plane. The moment she said bye to me, my heart melted. I was so heavy. This was not a luxury flight it was for survival."
She continued:
"I emptied my account so my daughter could fly. The road was no longer safe. Kidnapping has become normal and fear has become our daily reality."
"It is not easy paying for flights right now, but my daughter’s life is priceless. This is actually her first time flying not for enjoyment or luxury but because the roads are unsafe. I as a mother have never flown before."
"I would rather go broke than watch anything happen to my daughter."
