Hi am from southern region of India here the current generation struggling for one children due to impotency….. May God bless u Mariam if u give me ur bank ac no I will help u of my capability…. May God bless ur family
@Will you not think?? ? amen we must bow down to God
Even if your motives are pure, in this day and age, it is neither appropriate nor is it wise to ask for someone’s bank account number (especially online)
So what is Ugandan government doing to help he is a shame 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Dhanish m look if you want to help her why do you need her bank account get her. Address send her certify mail to her and that you can send her money order If you truly want to help and if your not a scam😒😳 well money order with her name on it simple or Western Union will also those 44 children
And her shalom

Fix your grammar before complaining about others.
My friend recently went back to Belfast for his ex mother-in-law’s funeral. He informed me that she had given birth to 22 children. I was shocked. I was even more surprised with the number of grandchildren she had: 200.
22 on my dads side.
Poor woman omg 😱
A strong single mother. Haha.
The way you said it, it’s as if she wanted this. Did you even watch the video or even listen to her words?
She is a birth machine 😂
May Almighty give her courage to take care of her sons!
What abt daughter?? She also has them too
@Chisti Jalalpuri both
And daughters…
As many children one can maintain and take care of, that many one should plan to get. But maybe now her fault if the husband was abusive
Get her fixed
I know this video gave you lung cancer.
Why?
Being poor having a hard time in life doesn’t make sense to have a lots of children
Uganda is the meme of the decade.
Europeans will do something evil
God blessed africans in different ways
Strong lady 🤕🤕🤕
Alihamudulillah
Yes ug hv the most fertile
Ladies …..one lady can give birth to 12_18 plus….
I love u my country the pearl of Africa (ug)
Innalilahi wa innailaihi rajiun. Having soo many people is not good, trust me. I live in the most densely populated island in Indonesia. Traffic jams are everywhere, traffic accident cause casualties are everyday. Not enough jobs. Get to line for long time for everything 😇😇😇
Thats why i decide to have only one child
@Wahyu Tyassholiha God who have given to you have good plans fr em….so I dnt see any prblmz with being with many children….so long as HE z de one who gave em to u…..there are so many pipo n dis Duniyah who are infertile yawning to gt kids buh no wea to get em,
@NM NM Maybe, thats suitable for Uganda. Not for my country. May Allah SWT Bless Us. Amin Yaa Rabb.
@Wahyu Tyassholiha aemeen
Ur frm wc country?
A lady, FORCIBLY married at 12 years of age; a victim of domestic violence both within her family & marriage homes; hospitalised for 6 months following her reaction to injectable contraception; having 38 children to support alone, after her husband abandoned the family; this hard working lady, is the very type of person, fund raising social media campaigns could help.
Children are a blessing from God who makes no mistake. May God bless you Merriam.
Friend of God there is that and there’s ignorance
Wrong thats not the case for everyone
OMG.
Masha’Allah. That’s a strong woman.
She blessed with a lot of child but at the same time her child help her back with house chores.
Its good that her husband ran away otherwise the number would have doubled!
A woman, a mother so strong so decisive i am amazed by her attitude and strength of faith and immense love for her children Now who is stronger a woman or a man???
The Power of a Woman!
What about the source of life, the sperm, it alive and moves.. Not the egg, think outside the womb, unlike some animal
Cats dogs and rats …spring to my mind!
An Michelle Duggar thought she was doing something with her 19 kids.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣lol🙄😑🤣🤣🤣🤣
She is a hero mother.
This is a big sign that God is telling Bill and Melinda Gates foundation, who are trying to destroy Africans genetic that not matter what the Western is trying to do to destroy the multiplying population of Africa, you will never succeed
Africans sadly due to Adultery and wife sharing like animals, will die due to Ebola, aids, STDs, and other new and incurable forma of diesease.
So you have to pay money to go to school on Africa SMH Jesus christ.. These people are determined to be a 3rd world country
the seating president should support the family.. its prety to have such a good big family. Please help her cover fees and support her with monthly money . Howsoever she works its very difficult to completely afford every thing … this is the kind of areas that we really want a government …
I am a somali I realy felt the pain….
Where is the president lets see you here if you are a good president……
So you black men share each other’s wives, via Adultery and jump from women to women, then ask for the whole community of black people to feed your responsibility and sustain them.
It’s been said that some group of people choose to live like Apes, so they were made into apes.
Those who live like animals, die like animals.
Your a super Hero Mum
Very old video

Incredible story but sad that she’s spent most her life on her back

The point is not her fertility but the fact that all those kids survived their infancy is something that amazes me.
Her body must be so tired. 😢💕 some one with lots of money go help her please 💓💓💓
Ugandan men need to get FIXED after producing one or two kids by law. This kind of uncontrolled breeding can’t continue.
First comment not to place the blame on the woman. Congrats
Blessings
Is it possible to help her? She needs better housing, the children need clothing etc. I want to help
This is only being reported to promote single motherhood and demonize black patriarchy.
JJ Dessalines
Nobody needs to demonize black men. They doing a spanking good PR job of it all by themselves 🙄

The government should help her with food,school and housing its too much for a single mum.God bless them
Long live Afrika! Long live the Black Race!
Why have so many children KNOWING you don’t have the resources to care for them!
Yeah, pretty inspiring and all, but, WHY SHE DIDN’T STOP HAVING CHILDREN AFTER THE FIRST TWELVE?
Who gives birth to so many children when you are poor?? That’s stupid
I am fat >> I s leep wiht all men.. me eats alot.. and need welfare hadouts.. my kids can start a farm and help grow and plant.. but no give me entitlments for I overeat and die my hair red and think I need it.
BIRTH CONTROL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who would; admit to impregnating this sow???
Nothing pleases me than seeing that she can afford them all and feed them, and how she loves them all🥰🥰
Went from 38 to 42 kids😌
SHE IS A GOOD MOM💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖🙏🏽🀄
How do we help her? Can we send money to her?
Before you comment on other peoples lives and choice. Please understand the context. Resource poor communities are marginalized-Lack of access to health services, education,credit facilities, knowledge- is the determent of achieving basic human rights. She is a victim of a broken system. Yet she takes pride in her fortune, her children. If you want to help. Support sustainable solutions like capital fund her businesses. Reduce her overhead costs and support one of her kids with an education fund. Sustainability is key. She is the true definition of a mother’s strength.
This woman is not on welfare, collecting food stamps, no section 8 and No Husband…God Bless her..
I’d say hyper-copulation.
They all look well feed and healthy. She is doing a good job.
Is this the reason why deadbeat African fathers are fleeing to Europe, as they shun responsibility towards their large families back home?
Beautiful Sister….We need some contacts or bank account or whatever means to assist you financially. Please, not Scammers.
Would you mind getting us updated, please?
OH….My….GOD! Are you serious? That is So Disturbing. Women are not brood mares and just because you CAN have children doesn’t mean you need to keep going Till your Uterus Drops out from exhaustion.That is just Beyond.🙄🙄🙄🙄🤯🤯🤯🤪 I mean C’mon! TLC would Have a FIELD DAY if This Lady was in America. They’d make a show out of it faster than u can shake a stick.
I wonder why the doctors did not terminate her pregnancies. Abort, abort, abort.
Mother of Africa of the world she deserves respect an HELP world record an prize
I had a friend have seven boys i always admired her strength. She deserves tube tied vacation car house running water field growing food an cattle.
It’s sad she married at 12!!!Had her first set of twins at 14! She wanted to be sterilized but doctors refused when she continued to have multiple births. Sad…
The Husband Left……??????????…….. oh no…. I don’t think so…… somebody go find him…. you can’t bring all those children in the world and go your merry way and leave them … WHERE HE AT…. we need to start a campaign to FIND HIM!!!!!!!!!
