Heart Touching....Pls Read And Advise ...Urgently !!!

Dear Readers,

One of our LADBLOWERS ( LArryDaviesBLOgWorldReaderS) sent this earlier today. She needs our help, in making a very important decision in her life.


Please advice her in the Comments Section. This was what she sent to us.



Dear LADBLOW,

I am in a tight situation and need your help. I am a 16 Year old young girl of African Origin. I hail from the eastern part Of Nigeria.I am the only daughter and first child amongst 5 boys . My mother is late ,but I have a step mother.I have no step siblings as my step mum has no children. My dad is currently ill and has been that way for 2 years now, and is some how incapacitated.

I recently gained admission into our Regional University - Imo State University to study Law. It has not been easy for us financially since my dad's illness. My step mother has been taking care of the home with her petty business.

Recently she talked my dad into marrying me to an old chief from our village that already has 5 wives. I do not want to marry the chief for so many reasons;

1. He is older than my father
2. He already has 5 wives and I do not want to be a 6th wife.
3.He is a native doctor, whilst I am a christian, Our faiths dont match.
4. I am a virgin and his tradition compels that I must be pregnant for him before he completes my marriage rites. He has done that with many girls my age and never married them since they all gave birth to girls. ( He is searching for a male child to continue in his profession).
5. I do not want to tie my destiny and that of my unborn children to a worthless tradition.
6. I want to finish my university before getting involved in a relationship or even getting married.

I can go on and on the list is endless, and most of all I do not love him and can never do.

I am confused as my dad is incapacitated and cannot do or say anything and my step mum is controlling things. She has promised to take me to the chief's house very soon. I do not know when. I am scared. I am thinking about running away. But if I run, who would look after my 5 younger brothers, since my step mum is wicked to us since she has no children. She forces even my youngest brother that is barely 3 years old to do hard jobs.

Please I need advise on what to do. The issue of marriage to this chief started immediately I announced that I have gotten admission to the University. 

Please advise me on what to do. 

Sincerely
Amaka O.
