Informative as always Angie, I have two collegues ( Whom I work with in Kenya now) who were working in Dubai but quit their jobs to relocate back home to Kenya, reason: One couldn't take the pain that his kids always ran away from him whenever he returned to Kenya for holidays after a year or so, to them he was this stranger invading their home. As a parent nothing gives me joy than coming home to my family/kids every day(even if I ain't earning as much as I would like to) and they sharing day events to me. As for your daughter, if she had a sibling she would have had an easier time but given your situation that's not an option for now. I'd advise you to start working aggressively towards investing back home by buying a house, getting an education insurance for your daughter, get a job locally or get into some income generating activities inorder to be with your daughter and getting to share her milestones together
Story of my life.....It has been four years now since I set my eyes on my little Angel,but iam grateful to God that she is healthy and in good care of my Mom,she doesn't remember how I look but one thing I know she still knows that iam her Mommy and I love her soo much,iam here For a season and a reason ,very soon am gonnah see her and I pray that I never leave her again because this feeling is hurting.....I can't count how many times I have broken down and felt Nostalgic whenever I think of my Mom and daughter, but all in all God remains God....to all moms and dads going through this situation i send hugs to you,it is not easy....hugs to you Angie my county mate.....My girl talks to me when she feels like...... she is the Boss,sometimes I cry and even feel like am a bad Mom,she calls me a liar because I always tell her am coming back home but I don't so she doesn't see the need of talking to me......For me I stopped crying and whenever I feel like crying I end up listening to Some Gospel Music and dance the hell out of me,afterwards I pray and feel better thou Nostalgic feeling is real and normal.
@@AngieOwoko it hasn't been easy I thank God for the patience...in the first years I used to feel nolstagic like daily I would close my self in a room and cry my eyes out but as days went by and I started holding the $ ......seeing my daughter attend a good,footing and settling bills for my family giving my mom a good life and home this has given me more courage to press on and of course prayers.....
Sella Obinya my sister there is no need to lie to the kid. Tell her the truth. Like my little angel mommy can’t come home because at the moment if she does she won’t be able to work n pay your school fees or buy you toys. It’s better day way that saying l will come l will come cause it creates a false hope in the child’s head. Tell her however mommy is working on being able to come bt she does not know when so that she does think you are abandoning her. You are a great mom my dear it’s better to be away n provide than to be present n end up angry for not being able to provide
Hi Angie I want to encourage you. My parents left the country when I was 10 to work as expats elsewhere due to a poor economy. I was in boarding school till 18 and saw them during holidays, calls were rare then but letter writing was the option in the early years. Children are resilient and we don't give them as much credit. I'm in my 30s and my Mother still feels guilty about leaving. I always tell her you did the best you could at the time, we went to decent schools and felt loved by keeping a stable home with structure in their absence. I left home at 19 and moved continents. The resilience and confidence was learnt through independence at a young age. Sometimes in life we make the hard decisions that not many can make, when you have your vision it makes it a bit more bearable.
Thank you so much Angie for sharing your story. I learn a lot from watching your channel. I like the way you handled your depression. It happens to so many people but it's good to come back to reality. Conditions aren't permanent we just have to deal with each as it comes. You have a lovely daughter 😊
This one hit me soo hard .. always when i want to do things away from my kids its soo hard and yes you are now really talking about me there, imagine i have never been away from kids ever before yoooh... I know this video was supposed to encourage me but Angie Iost few people this year through depression. and I know another inlaw going through that and she keep forgetting in the middle of teaching, its not a joke and I thank God that you keep Almighty first even if you are feeling down. ITS ONLY GOD THAT CAN LET YOU GO THROUGH THIS WITH A SMILE...love you gal and im going to send you something through whatsupp to listen to.
In a previous video you said in your accommodation you have a gym. Exercise is a good way of keep depression at bay. I have been unemployed for almost 3 years now depression has been my portion, so recently I started exercising to just keep myself sane and it is helping . Try it
Nelly Macharia keep on my sister no condition is permanent. You will either find a job or find something to bring you money. God works in mysterious ways
You are a strong mum,and one day things gonna be okay,sometimes i also feel depressed in the absence of my hubby who is also there,but prayers av kept me going dont try alcohol gal it wil stress you more,be strong and pray for your child God to give her peaceful heart
I’m not a parent BUT I was a child whose parents had to live abroad for years and I was left behind with grandparents. I think you should call your kid as much as you can! That way you can know what’s going on in her life. My parents never called much and it would have made such a big difference if they did.
It's not easy ,I left my two kids am in lebanon I started the 4th yr' I just pray God to help me ,I said once igot home I will never come back and leave my kids anymore ,I've been shading tears all along but sometimes I encourage my self that I have to work so they will have a good life oooh my God please help me sometimes I feel I can't take It anymore
This is soo true.... I also feel the same at times.. I thought am the only who feels that.. Myn goes for 2 to 3 days... May God help you to overcome...
Angie you need to be strong,this thing of depression is real especially to us mother's who have left our children back home,I was like that but I talked to my children and told them I'm away from them for our future and I can tell you now all of us are free from stress
imagine Angie lm so weak that i chose to be jobless than to leave my son other wise i could be in qatar long time ago working but with the stress ahead thinking of your child blaming yourself what kind of a parent you are weeh lm too weak for that.
Ooh dear I really feel you, it's soo depressing,, why don't you install WiFi for your mum, it's only 3500 for installation then you will be paying 1500 every month, it won't cost you a lot of money like bundles so you can frequently be talking with your loved ones without a big cost.... That's what I did and i usually make sure I call anytime am free and we talk for hours
I think it would help if you have like things like support groups where you have a safe place to release the tension and all that stuff, sometimes it helps to share and just breakdown,I can imagine how hard it is to be away from loved ones,may God give you grace and patience and endurance my sister.🙏🏾
This one hit me hard😭😭 it's almost ayear but this depression yooh🙆 it can't get off,I almost quit the job here in Qatar on the 2nd month just because I mis my kids🤗 for sure Angie am on a process of terminating my contract and just going bac home,myb after seeing them I can have a second thout..I thank God his grace has been sufficient thru' Someone got me this dark chocolate this morning but sijakula..Acha nijaribu niumeume lakini katest kake joo😂
I will share my story.my son is 8 years.been in Doha 3 years now.i remember in the beginning would call home 3_4 times in a day it reached a point my son told mi mum Niko poa.wewe fanya kazi..I'm not sure about parents with baby girls coz for mi kipii Bora ashibe ako sawa
hey Angie im a new subby love ur content, i feel you girl cant imagine how hard it is for you. Im from kenya fortunately still living and working in Nairobi i have a son almost your daughters age cant imagine staying away but life happens and we can only hope for the best and a brighter future for them, want to encourage you to stay strong for the both of you wishing you all the best and thanks for sharing.
Me I have resigned more than 50tyms but when I remember family, bank loan ,economy of kenya and how difficult it is to get a job 😆😆😄😄😁😁 Nararua resign paper I know more than 20 who have
By watching your vedios, it never crossed my mind that you are a depressive person, for u are a high-spirited and lively lady. Mosltly depression wasn't a problem for our forefathers who used to dance and sing to beat anxiety and depression. Anyhow be careful to not to drink changa'a. Drink Henneken or Bavaria.
I always feel the same I left my daughter 2018 she was 1year and I have to work for 2years it hasn't been easy anytime I video call her after the call I just end up craying
Pole dear I was separated the same from my son 25 years ago while on University in the US. It was hard then but I used to call. Video calls would be very depressing. I really feel sad for parents who have to live away from their child.
No easy way when it comes to children and the distance. Went to the USA last June for my daughters graduation, my daughter had to stay behind when we were returning to Kenya. When leaving at the airport, we were both in tears! My take, just keep that constant communication it helps, coz you have to do what you got to do.
I think that we all mothers in gulf/middle east go through the same situation....... sometimes after talking to my kids I endup crying...... sometimes I ask my mum to remind them that am their mother though they call me by my names ( Tinnah) but I always feel good when my mother tell them to call me (mum) but we in middle east we know any other option other than copping with the situation...... ata video ulimake last time ukiwa Kenya na mtoi wako gave me sleepless night...... that say after watching that video I slept at 5:00 am ... I was so happy for you that I ended up missing my kids
I am a parent living away from my children, at the beginning it was quite difficult, but with time, my children also began to understand and encourage me. I went through similar depression, I would cry throughout my flight but we are finally peaceful. they have grown and i have also accepted the circumstances.
Wow Angie..I can clearly relate with your story nothing is as touching as being away from your baby....but only thing kept me in Qatar is being around my husband by God's grace we are in same Industry and my child can talk to me anytime of the day she can call me she's 5 years now..its serious I get myself calling their teacher and talk to her at school..n bado she calls me after schoo. during holidays I tell you I work🤣 with her coz she calls anytime this gives us so much attachment....for me talking to her often is a therapy
I used to cry but I asked God to give me wisdom nd courage to fulfill my dream . I always listen to gospel or Rumba nikifika mwisho as I take a walk around not easy though. Pay 1k per monthfor airtel Wi-Fi the best talk to her 2-3 tyms per week. Never quite ur job grl ❤.
Have been touched paka av subscribed. Angie Remember Jesus is the only connection. Look upon Him especially hapa gulf...n remember not many are happy for your prosperity, so nakemea roho za kutaka kukatiza your destiny. In Jesus name. But in all we thank God.
Hi Angie, l really feel you and can imagine the situation you are in, l too am a single mother with a 5 yr old daughter. My suggestion that you buy a phone specially for calling your daughter at home, whereby you can be sending bundles to call her. Make a permanent day convenient to both of you and be calling her on weekly basis or whenever you want. that way you will be both looking forward to the day. Even though it can be expensive, it’s a good investment.technology has made it easier for us to communicate and make use of it.
Jamani harabuni kwataka moyo. Hata sisi wenye hatuna watoto bado tuko depressed. Mimi nimelia hadi nimechoka. Kikubwa ni kuomba Mungu na kuwa mvumilivu. Halafu ukiwa sometimes akili inaja tu negativity na Habari ya vifo ndio Zina ongezeka. Yani ni Mungu tu
New subscriber 💞💞 I like how you narrate. Your stories flows well and are too captivating. I love your content❤️ stay blessed. keep posting more videos🤗
7months down the line is when it hit me that Im not going to see my daughter for two years and I just broke down uncontrollably. The pain, the fear of her not remembering me woii. I thank God I'm almost done and we talk over the phone and she still remembers me and tells me how much she loves me and it calms me. But the pain of asking me everyday when Im coming home😥😥
My sister is not easy especially in middle East. I live there for four year I no what it takes .that's why I fine my way out of that country 2 America. My advice 2 u as an African brother just look for good friends and go out on ur off days my sister pls that can help and go for gym sometimes ok pls. I have been in ur shoes before in doha Qatar is not easy oooo even as a young guy when I was living in Qatar doha in this areas new Rayal and old Rayal . men is not easy oooooooo my sister tanks.
God wants us to be with our children. Just trust Him to take care of you. He is able to give you more back home than what you have there if you want to be with your baby. Just believe He can make a way.
It's hard,icried daily when icame over leaving my girls( 2009) 10,12,13,yrs,although iknew their father was good ,later the teachers in sch,beat up my lastborn like athief for failing maths,viboko kuchorwa kwa miguu,iwas about to come back,but ithought of loans,my parents, how we were on strike every now and then ,their father's income not sufficient, using firewood, going to harvest corn, ithank God after 2yrs my husb granted visa,he declined job offer here,it meant the children cant come,both parents must be here to bring the children I worked hard,to raise tickets,take them to good schools, phew,went home thrice ayr for 2 weeks,bought tablets,smartphone,wifi,their teachers understood, we spoke on phone using their nos when in boarding sch.ispend lots on airtime I decided not to take off bcs all idid was ring , My children cried whenever I visited but now they're adults one of them exhibited some funny character, iblame myself for being absent I have managed to bring one over on study visa,2016,ithank God she is qualifying, end of this yr iwill sponser another for mrs,then the last will come on working visa,buying my hse here,invest here,their father has since disappeared in our lives God cannot give me everything ineed
Depression is real especially in Gulf in my case i do call my kids often (video call works) n it really helps me and ask them what they want at the moment if can provide i do it instantly and they are happy, the bonding is intact though they want to come along and work with me but situation can't allow miss them.😔
Angie blood is thicker you know , my two kids aged 4 and 2yrs are living with my mum , i came here last yr oct and imagine being a maid , you don't get to go out and meet other people all day you only with this arabs ... it has never being easy, first when i started working my boss was like if you want to call your family i will give you my fone ... she didnt want me to use my phone i was hurting so deep i had to face her and tell her its either you connect me yo wifi or buy a simcard or i quit ... i told her my kids are back home i need to see them n them to see me..thats when she connected me to her wifi ... i remember dec their dad took them for two good weeks and jan when he brought them back to my mum , they really changed coz they cried and also my son the younger one completely changed , that even taking shower he didnt want to, if he does something and someone try to stop him he cried hysterically ...it really hurt me that i had to stop his dad from visiting them but thank God feb he went and visited and they were fine ... jan i was about to quit but i knew it would not be possible vile sisi house maids tunakaliwa sio mchezo ... najikaza coz i bought my mum a smart fone and we communicate almest daily nikiona wako na raha nakua relieved...
@@AngieOwoko kweli siz better tufanye job wakule than being there with them na mauzuni ya doo, mwenye ashawai itishwa kitu na mtoto and that time you don't have anything I mean pocket iko down unafeel kujiua. Sijui nimimi nakatakata vitunguu pekee 😢macho iko 😢😢😢
Three days in Doha, but I feel like I'll quit. The job is awesome,the terms and conditions are lovely.theres no where else I'll have such a great opportunity. But I miss my baby so much
I also hope you have an open, deep dialogue with your child. There is alot of childhood trauma, child abuse/ molestation going on in Kenya. I don't want to scare you but it's happening. Her being a girl, makes her more vulnerable. Please pay attention.
Depression is real it comes at different times and variety of reasons, leaving your child is not easy difficult decision but remember why u are I Quatar,get yr child a phone u can communicate more often,your child is in good hands your mom took care of her like she took care of u.Its tough so sorry for Solange I'm 61my mom died and I miss her I could tell her anything.Get professional help and vitamin B12 gives life and energy please get some.I stuggle daily thank God for technology maybe I would die already.Try speaking to her daily and that will make a difference she's so sweet.
Depression is real..I am 5 months here and always breakdown every time I talk to my 1.9 yr old son,he says he wants to touch my face with kakidole😭😭 and when I stop talking he asks why mummy is angry..it's not easy I feel like I can go home right this minute
😢😢😢😢sijui kama mumejua corona imefika Qatar jameni, yaani mtu mmoja amefugiwa kwa chumba pekee akipokea madawa na hii inchi niyao what about sisi tuko hapa mungu tusaidie, 😢😢😢
Qatar is inside kenya because only 4 hours flight ... inside China domestic flight can be 6 hours that’s a distance of Kenya to Hamburg Germany 😂😂😂😂 China is big weeee Uko Qatar ni sawa tu na kuwa ndani ya kenya dada
You are strong 💪🏽 mum. As for me I try to call my 4year old son before he leaves for school in the morning.i know it’s not easy but I try my best to speak with him.Not easy thou ❤️❤️❤️will try some dark chocolate 🍫 too.
This video was so touching I didn't know how to get in touch with you I had to search you in for in fb i sent a message in your inbox, then i sent another a message to one of your friend in fb. Anyway check your fb inbox you will get my contacts and kindly get intouch.
Zigzag’ solti are you going to financially support her??? Act as dad to her daughter? Give her the moral support etc she wants?? If the answer is no, your opinion doesn't matter..
Informative as always Angie, I have two collegues ( Whom I work with in Kenya now) who were working in Dubai but quit their jobs to relocate back home to Kenya, reason: One couldn't take the pain that his kids always ran away from him whenever he returned to Kenya for holidays after a year or so, to them he was this stranger invading their home.

As for your daughter, if she had a sibling she would have had an easier time but given your situation that's not an option for now. I'd advise you to start working aggressively towards investing back home by buying a house, getting an education insurance for your daughter, get a job locally or get into some income generating activities inorder to be with your daughter and getting to share her milestones together

I used to cry but I asked God to give me wisdom nd courage to fulfill my dream . I always listen to gospel or Rumba nikifika mwisho as I take a walk around not easy though. Pay 1k per monthfor airtel Wi-Fi the best talk to her 2-3 tyms per week. Never quite ur job grl ❤.
I will not make the mistake of quitting dear. Thanks for your encouragement. Stay strong 🤗 🤗 🤗
@@AngieOwoko wlcm siz ❤
Have been touched paka av subscribed. Angie Remember Jesus is the only connection. Look upon Him especially hapa gulf...n remember not many are happy for your prosperity, so nakemea roho za kutaka kukatiza your destiny. In Jesus name. But in all we thank God.
Awww...thanks dear. Absolutely. Could is our strength and shield
Hi Angie, l really feel you and can imagine the situation you are in, l too am a single mother with a 5 yr old daughter. My suggestion that you buy a phone specially for calling your daughter at home, whereby you can be sending bundles to call her. Make a permanent day convenient to both of you and be calling her on weekly basis or whenever you want. that way you will be both looking forward to the day. Even though it can be expensive, it’s a good investment.technology has made it easier for us to communicate and make use of it.
can't stop moving, that one is impressive from you teashirt Angie.
Oh! I see...but true
Hey gal,I saw you jana kwa church.....God bless you much love
This video gave me goosebumps....... thanks namesake
Woi...welcome girlfie 🤗🤗🤗
Jamani harabuni kwataka moyo. Hata sisi wenye hatuna watoto bado tuko depressed. Mimi nimelia hadi nimechoka. Kikubwa ni kuomba Mungu na kuwa mvumilivu. Halafu ukiwa sometimes akili inaja tu negativity na Habari ya vifo ndio Zina ongezeka. Yani ni Mungu tu
Kabisa dadangu. Jipe moyo 🤗🤗🤗
New subscriber 💞💞 I like how you narrate. Your stories flows well and are too captivating. I love your content❤️ stay blessed. keep posting more videos🤗
Thanks darling and welcome to the club 🤗 🤗 🤗
7months down the line is when it hit me that Im not going to see my daughter for two years and I just broke down uncontrollably. The pain, the fear of her not remembering me woii. I thank God I'm almost done and we talk over the phone and she still remembers me and tells me how much she loves me and it calms me. But the pain of asking me everyday when Im coming home😥😥
Angie i like your videos girl bcox you speak the truth we experience here in Doha.
Thanks dear 🤗 🤗 🤗
My sister is not easy especially in middle East. I live there for four year I no what it takes .that's why I fine my way out of that country 2 America.

I have been in ur shoes before in doha Qatar is not easy oooo even as a young guy when I was living in Qatar doha in this areas new Rayal and old Rayal . men is not easy oooooooo my sister tanks.
May God see you through it all
Amen dear. Thanks
God wants us to be with our children. Just trust Him to take care of you. He is able to give you more back home than what you have there if you want to be with your baby. Just believe He can make a way.
It's hard,icried daily when icame over leaving my girls( 2009) 10,12,13,yrs,although iknew their father was good ,later the teachers in sch,beat up my lastborn like athief for failing maths,viboko kuchorwa kwa miguu,iwas about to come back,but ithought of loans,my parents, how we were on strike every now and then ,their father's income not sufficient, using firewood, going to harvest corn, ithank God after 2yrs my husb granted visa,he declined job offer here,it meant the children cant come,both parents must be here to bring the children
I worked hard,to raise tickets,take them to good schools, phew,went home thrice ayr for 2 weeks,bought tablets,smartphone,wifi,their teachers understood, we spoke on phone using their nos when in boarding sch.ispend lots on airtime
I decided not to take off bcs all idid was ring ,
My children cried whenever I visited but now they're adults one of them exhibited some funny character, iblame myself for being absent
I have managed to bring one over on study visa,2016,ithank God she is qualifying, end of this yr iwill sponser another for mrs,then the last will come on working visa,buying my hse here,invest here,their father has since disappeared in our lives
God cannot give me everything ineed
You are still very much blessed and an Iron lady. God bless you for all your sacrifice
Depression is real especially in Gulf in my case i do call my kids often (video call works) n it really helps me and ask them what they want at the moment if can provide i do it instantly and they are happy, the bonding is intact though they want to come along and work with me but situation can't allow miss them.😔
Really sorry dear I also went through the same thing but thank God
Absolutely
Call her everyday. It's the best you can do for now
You are real missing your kid but life sometimes forces us to leave them behind. With time she will get used to it.
By the Grace of God. We are more than conquers
Thanks for this....timely for me 👌
Most welcome dear. May you be strengthened in the Lord 🤗🤗🤗
@@AngieOwoko Thanks Angie
Hi Ange thanks 4 your vedio.. I am also feel this way when I work in Qatar
Angie blood is thicker you know , my two kids aged 4 and 2yrs are living with my mum , i came here last yr oct and imagine being a maid , you don't get to go out and meet other people all day you only with this arabs ... it has never being easy, first when i started working my boss was like if you want to call your family i will give you my fone ... she didnt want me to use my phone i was hurting so deep i had to face her and tell her its either you connect me yo wifi or buy a simcard or i quit ... i told her my kids are back home i need to see them n them to see me..thats when she connected me to her wifi ... i remember dec their dad took them for two good weeks and jan when he brought them back to my mum , they really changed coz they cried and also my son the younger one completely changed , that even taking shower he didnt want to, if he does something and someone try to stop him he cried hysterically ...it really hurt me that i had to stop his dad from visiting them but thank God feb he went and visited and they were fine ... jan i was about to quit but i knew it would not be possible vile sisi house maids tunakaliwa sio mchezo ... najikaza coz i bought my mum a smart fone and we communicate almest daily nikiona wako na raha nakua relieved...
Darling, I feel you. Jipe moyo. Itakuja siku njema🤗🤗🤗. At least you know that they are ok
@@AngieOwoko that's what keeps me going attimes i just video call them just to see them playing and i get to be in peace plus prayers
Sometimes unaagalia life vile iko 😢😢😢😢kweli nikuvumilia but mungu nimukubwa so long uko live lazima tutawafikia
True dear. It is the sacrifice that we have to make. They will thank us later
@@AngieOwoko kweli siz better tufanye job wakule than being there with them na mauzuni ya doo, mwenye ashawai itishwa kitu na mtoto and that time you don't have anything I mean pocket iko down unafeel kujiua. Sijui nimimi nakatakata vitunguu pekee 😢macho iko 😢😢😢
Ur making me to cry cause am depressed too

HEY 👋
Hey Dave
Three days in Doha, but I feel like I'll quit. The job is awesome,the terms and conditions are lovely.theres no where else I'll have such a great opportunity. But I miss my baby so much
Darling take heart. We have all been there. You will overcome. Stay strong 🤗🤗🤗
Keep on moving, compose yourself koz the first three months are hectic.....I was there but now 18 months going strong!!
Thanks guys, how I wish we had like a WhatsApp group where we can let it out and encourage each other.
@@graciemukuhi7138 yes it's a nice idea...someone shd start one and we join koz life sometimes here we fèel too low and no one to talk to😢
Angie is in a better position to do that considering she knows alot more people than me. Angie what do you think?
Ni noma bt vumiliya mm nimeka mka samba msupa
I also hope you have an open, deep dialogue with your child. There is alot of childhood trauma, child abuse/ molestation going on in Kenya. I don't want to scare you but it's happening. Her being a girl, makes her more vulnerable. Please pay attention.
Thanks. I understand. I will do so
Angie,está bien
Muy bien. Gracias
Very true I miss my family alooooot
It is well dear
Am sorry am not going to complete watching it because i don't want to remeber my kids who are back home....i feel the pain
Depression is real it comes at different times and variety of reasons, leaving your child is not easy difficult decision but remember why u are I Quatar,get yr child a phone u can communicate more often,your child is in good hands your mom took care of her like she took care of u.Its tough so sorry for Solange I'm 61my mom died and I miss her I could tell her anything.Get professional help and vitamin B12 gives life and energy please get some.I stuggle daily thank God for technology maybe I would die already.Try speaking to her daily and that will make a difference she's so sweet.
Solange is such a sweetheart, comforting you through singing 💕💕💕
You can’t even imagine! She is my rock
😢😢😢😢😢😢 ni kuvumilia siz mm inafanya mpaka inafanya kupiga simu ngumu
I know dear

Depression when you’re away from your loved ones is so real,....if it wasn’t for the grace of God l wouldn’t be here.
I know dear. It is only by His grace
Do they need a degree to work in Qatar I have a university diploma and currently looking for a teaching job
Hi Sly, not necessarily. A diploma can do
Can you please hook me up with your school if possible I would like to apply directly to the school
Angie, you've got a cuuuuuute little angel there. Wekea mummy WIFI then it will be cheaper and easier to talk to her and your family
Thanks for enlightening me.. I'll try dark choclate 😋
😁🤗🤗🤗
😢😢😢😢sijui kama mumejua corona imefika Qatar jameni, yaani mtu mmoja amefugiwa kwa chumba pekee akipokea madawa na hii inchi niyao what about sisi tuko hapa mungu tusaidie, 😢😢😢
God is in control
True
Get vodaphone business 150, 500 international, 500 local, 100sms,and about 4-6gb
Depression is real .but anytime you have it just pray and read Slam 103 or 91 then go for Windows shopping 💋👍
Hehe he...thanks dear

Pls resign and go back ur daughter is important
Zigzag’ solti are you going to financially support her??? Act as dad to her daughter? Give her the moral support etc she wants?? If the answer is no, your opinion doesn't matter..
