A Ghanaian woman who travelled to Canada for studies now finds herself eight months pregnant and homeless, seeking help from fellow Ghanaians in Toronto.
The woman’s desperate situation was shared by Maame Pokuah, a Ghanaian resident in the city, who revealed that the woman had been staying with members of a local church until her pregnancy was discovered.
According to the account, the woman concealed her pregnancy for several months while living with the church members. However, once the pregnancy came to light, she was evicted from their home, leaving her stranded and forced to live on the streets. With nowhere to turn, the woman has faced immense hardship, leading her to contemplate suicide as she struggles to survive the streets while expecting a child.
In her current state, the woman is appealing to fellow Ghanaians, particularly those living in Canada, for temporary accommodation. She hopes to find shelter where she can safely deliver her baby before returning to Ghana.
