Ghanaian socialite Aba Dope has revealed how a painful betrayal during her youth shaped her decision to become a mother without entering marriage. During a conversation with Nana Romeo on Okay FM, she described dedicating herself to a boyfriend while both attended school, performing household tasks for his family, and washing his clothes while studying nursing.
Her partner relocated abroad, and she maintained her commitment until discovering through his friend that he had married someone else. The young man had been secretly engaged throughout their relationship with his mother's awareness, leaving Aba emotionally devastated.
The experience led her to reject conventional romantic commitments. When she later chose to have a baby, she informed the father that she wanted only parenthood without a relationship, asserting that motherhood outside wedlock carries no wrongdoing.
