Readers say they would not abort babies if husband instructs so

95% of Pulse Nigeria Poll voters say they would not abort a pregnancy.

Really sad woman

One of our readers, Juliana, sent in this letter:

"My name is and I am a married woman. My husband and I have been married for five years now without a child to show for it.

In the past five years, I have had toon three occasions because my husband told me to. Anytime I take in, he will threaten me and force me to abort the baby, saying he is not ready to have an added responsibility.

It is not as if he is unemployed as he has his own business and I notice that anytime I abort, his business takes a different turn and booms greatly.

His family has been on my neck, blaming me for our inability to have a child but I have never divulged to them that it is actually their son that say we should not have a child now.

Presently, I am pregnant and my husband has been pleading with me to do away with it. I am beginning to suspect he may be into some cult that has forbidden him to have a child."

The teaser of the day was:
