Ugandan comedienne Anne Kansiime has confessed that she terminated several pregnancies while she was still a student in campus.
Kansiime, who struggled for many years to have a child, opened up about aborting her unborn babies in a candid interview on YouTube.
“I started counting how many times I aborted, in campus. Then I started praying for all the men that I have ever been with and ask myself who cursed me,” she said.
Kansiime added she lost some pregnancies to naysayers who had opinions over her life and ended up jinxing her ability to be a mother at the time.
She revealed that when she finally got pregnant for her husband Skylanta she kept the news secret for some time out of fear before she publicly announced it.
Kansiime officially broke about her pregnancy on April 15th, 2021 as she announced to her fans that she was expecting her first child.
She also disclosed she decided to keep her pregnancy a secret for a while so that she would not have to deal with negative opinions.
“I kept it a secret because I did not want the devil to hear. I lost so many from people hearing and subconsciously I felt that is why I was losing. Sometimes I would be pregnant and I don’t know, but those who know pregnant people had something to say.”
Kansiime disclosed that she miscarried many times before she conceived her son, stating she had to ask God for forgiveness in regards to her past choices to terminate the pregnancies.
“Over and over again. Miscarriages also happen to people who have never aborted, virgins who get pregnant. But when you get a miscarriage of a child that you want, you start taking stock of why you could be getting miscarriages, and I started counting the how many times I aborted in campus. The truth is when you ask God for a child, he tells you yes,” she said.
