• The musician has given her regrets at being a born-again Christian for most of her life.

Gospel artist with controversy from Ukambani, Justina Syokau, is regretful about the conservative life she led during her adolescence.

Speaking on Oga Obinna's YouTube Show, Syokau said that one thing she regrets now is preserving her chastity, only to end up with a man who left her after giving birth.

Syokau mentioned that she had taken great care of herself during her school days as she was a devout Christian, but her friends who used to go out with different men have now settled into marriage, while she, who took good care of herself, ended up being a single mother.

"I think salvation contributed more to my ignorance of life. I was the chairperson of the Christian students' union in school, and when I started working, I was already saved.

I had kept [virginity] for my husband, thinking this was everything because we were told that bitten doughnuts wouldn't find buyers in the market," Justina said.

"I think it would have been better if I had sought experience and understanding. I regret not knowing life; I regret that I took care of myself so much and ended up heartbroken.

I regret that I had a child when I was so saved, and here I am today as a single mother while others who were reckless in their youth are now married and settled," Justina expressed her frustrations.

Since parting ways with her husband, Syokau has not found a suitable man to date and marry. In many interviews, she claimed that when she finds one with the qualities she desires in a man, that's when she will consider getting married.
