Brenda narrated how the man of the cloth invited her for a private 'counseling' after a Bible study session while she was in first year in campus.

...before I knew it, it was midnight. He was telling me how gifted I am, God sending me to nations....and before I knew it, he was all over me,' she said,

She continued,

I didn't fight him. I was like aah, they've done this before, just do what you want. The following day he gave me Sh200 and told me make sure you don't get pregnant. I don't want you tarnishing my name.

She explained how the bad experience strengthened her.

I'm thankful it happened because I'm able to help people who've gone through it,' she said.

Adding,

It made me do a lot of mistakes because it got to a point and was like these men have taken advantage of me and it's my time to take advantage of them.

When I was in second year, I used to heartbreak people just for the sake of it...because I wanted to see a man feel that pain for it to fulfill my ego. It then got to a place God was clear to me 'go back in church and stop what you're doing.
