The Popular Nollywood actress, Rita Edochie, said on Saturday in Abuja that she was unaware that she was pregnant when

 Rita EdochieRita Edochie “Though a boy used diabolic means and sexually abused me; I was not aware, I could not tell exactly how it happened. “I was not aware that I was pregnant then; I was so tiny.

 “We were playing games in the school; the type that the instructor or referee will say `number one’ and pupils with number 1 would run and collect something. “It was during the game that a fellow pupil insulted me that my tummy was like a breadfruit; I was angered and beat her up,” she said. 

She explained that the lesson teacher then asked them to go home and bring their parents. The actress said that she was a young innocent girl who could not tell lies to the mother or against the mother. “When I got home, I told my mother what led to the fight; she then asked me to raise up my dress; I did and after examination, she said that I was pregnant. “When she said, ‘do you know that you are pregnant,’ I fainted; any other story aside this is not true,’’ Edochie said.
