Wema Sepetu, who is battling childlessness, was savagely attacked after she said that she wanted to steal a baby because she couldn’t have her own.
The Bongo movies actress was recently seen carrying a baby in a post on social media. She said that she wanted to run away with the baby in the caption.
“Nilitamani nikimbie nae wallahy…🥺🥺🥺… Oh God please bless me with my own some day…🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼,” Wema Sepetu wrote.

Wema’s post attracted criticism galore as netizens went HAM on her.
The former beauty queen has since broken her silence following the barrage of social media attack.
Through her Instagram page, Wema admitted that being humiliated for not being able to give birth has always hurt her.
For that, he has criticized people who have been making fun of him but he pointed out that their jokes have not made him lose hope.
“Alafu sikieni niwaambie, msione kwamba basi mkiniambia nimekosa mtoto basi ndo mnaniweeeeeza!! Sawa naumia sikatai na mjue nitazoea. Sema mnaboa!!! Mnaudhi…!!! Najiskia vibaya!!! Sipendi!!!” Wema wrote.
About four years ago, Wema opened up about a problem in her uterus that prevents her from getting pregnant.
“Unajua mimi nilikuwa na tatizo kubwa sana kwa upande wa tumbo langu la uzazi lililosababisha nisiweze kuzaa kwa muda wote huu. Ngoja niweke wazi leo watu wajue, mimi nina ugonjwa ambao unasababisha mayai yangu ya uzazi kutoboka na kushindwa kupevusha mbegu za uzazi.
(You know I had a very serious problem with my uterus that caused me to be unable to give birth for all this time. Let me make it clear today for people to know, I have a disease that causes my ovaries to rupture and fail to fertilize sperm),” Wema said in an interview with Global Publishers.
Wema Sepetu has been struggling for years to get a child in vain. Last year, the former Miss Tanzania was overwhelmed with emotions during her show – ‘Cook with Wema Sepetu’ after Kanumba’s mother Flora Mutegoa spoke to her about her son’s curse.
Kanumba’s mother said her son told her that he cursed Wema after she aborted two of his pregnancies back then when they were still dating.
