Defence Nyamawi

Defence has one brother and two sisters and she is the last in birth order. Her parents separated and her mother in a bid to provide for them took up a job as a live in housemaid. They were thus left under the care of their maternal grandmother. The little the mother makes she sends to help cater to their needs but unfortunately it is often not sufficient. Defence is a kind and humble girl. She likes skipping rope and wants to be a doctor when she grows up.
