•"I do not want to take the pain that childless women go through and trash it. But for me, childbearing is not really an issue I give serious premium." -Millie Odhaimbo

Outspoken politician Millie Odhiambo has asked her haters to find something else to troll her with as she has accepted she can't sire kids.

Millie has never hidden the fact that she has no kids.

Unknown to many Millie has late-diagnosed fibroids, which contributed to her inability to conceive naturally.

Millie yesterday shared a post on her social media about a wedding and Kenyans came out in large numbers with some calling her degrading names.

Most especially men were of the opinion she should not discuss wedding if she can't be a mum, but Mabona is not bothered.

"No matter how stupid/useless you are, your wedding won't proceed without your presence," the post read.

She now says she has accepted she might never be a mother adding she is the mother to the motherless.

"Those of you who always like attacking me for not having kids kindly have accepted the will of God and moved on. Am a Mother of the Motherless and am proud of that."

In a past interview with The Star, Millie said that a woman should not be judged by her ability or inability to be a mother.

"I have always believed that having or not having a child is not what defines me. I do not want to take the pain that childless women go through and trash it. But for me, childbearing is not really an issue I give serious premium.

It does not define me and women should rise above it; it should not define who they are," the boisterous legislator said.

It's time people learned to accept that God is the giver of kids and respect peoples lives.
