Nollywood actress, Eniola Ajao, has stated that getting pregnant at the age of 20 while at a tertiary institution in Lagos State was a bit traumatic.
Eniola made this known in an interview on the YouTube podcast, Talk To B.
Sharing her experience, the Yoruba actress recounted how she isolated herself from the public over the baby mama stigma.
According to her, getting pregnant was not a thing of shame for her, but she hid the pregnancy due to societal expectations.
She said, “You know things aren’t what they used to be at that time. Getting pregnant at the age of 20 was a bit dramatic, because you just feel like the world is coming against you. You might probably want to die at a point, and you wouldn’t be able to get married again because of the stigma.

“You would want to hide it from your parents and the public because it was considered a thing of shame at that time. Not that it was a thing of shame for me, but it was considered to be early.
“Omotola got married at 18, lot of people married at 17, but where I come from, they want you to graduate, and do a couple of things. I was already in Yabatech when I got pregnant.
“I was hiding it. It’s just close friends and family members knew about it. Thinking that you may not get married, somebody calling you a baby mama, and you don’t want to get stigmatised”.
