Woman claims her sisters made her blind after a rich man promised to marry her at age 13

Blind old lady, Portia Essah lives alone in a village called Saakye in the Central region and she claims that her sisters caused her blindness after a man promised to marry her.

According to Portia, her elder sisters did not understand why he would wait for a 13-year-old to come of age when they were available. Speaking with SVTV Africa’s DJ Nyaami, Portia stated that she became blind soon after.

“After he promised to marry me, my sisters started talking about me. Their attitude changed towards me too and soon after, I couldn’t see well in my right eye,” she revealed.

Later, she got married and had two children, however, they live in Kumasi and Swedru respectively.

She disclosed that her major problem has to do with food since she is unable to work or farm. Given this, SVTV Africa Foundation donated to Portia. She received two bags of rice, a gallon of oil, and some drinks.
