Controversial musician Brymo, born Olawale Oloforo, made some startling revelations about his birth, suggesting that there were mysteries surrounding it.
During a frank conversation with Chude Jideonwo, Brymo shared that his mother had been raped as a teenager, leading to her menstrual cycle ceasing.
His parents spent years searching for a solution to her infertility, unaware that she was already pregnant at the time.
Brymo said: “The story surrounding my birth and the entire family is weird. There are always mysteries.
“There is a story of my mum, she had a traumatic experience, a sexual experience as a teenage girl. It was a rape incident. And for some weird reasons, she didn’t see her period anymore afterwards. And that kept on like that for three years or so till she met my dad.
“While they were taking her round herbalists and doctors, and pastors and imams, wherever they could go, so she could start bleeding, a woman needed to see her period before she could get pregnant, well, it happened that she was already pregnant, five months in and there was no blood. So, that was strange right? I had to kick for her to know that a child was there.
“While everyone was giving her medicine to drink, they were trying to force an abortion without knowing [laughs].”
