Iya twins:( solloliquising where she was seated in a public area with her children,  backing one while carrying one ) oh!! God why have you done all these things to me . Allah I worship you days and nights and you still decided to put all these troubles around me. Why me God.  I dont deserve all this(this time shedding tears) now I have only got two thousand naira with me .where would I live, how will feed my children.  God I pray unto you, please help me.if I decide to go to my village, one thousand five hundred would get me there and I would be left with five hundred naira.  That wont be enough to feed I and my children.  Well i think , I can be farming there to make money but, who would I leave my children for, I did not trust anybody. Almighty Allah please dont leave me alone with my cross(she was saying all this when a passer by has stopped for some seconds, he noticed her and tapped her, she quickly stood looking confused and lost)sorry sir , am u disturbing you
