I’m pregnant with my husband’s child– Widow

[Punch]

"I don't know how to explain how I feel.  I have three kids and I'm pregnant. The first child is four years and in nursery school, the second are twins. I want the government to help my family by assisting us with scholarship for the children up to university level. I had a dream that night that something terrible might happen. He was serving in Nasarawa and I am in Plateau State. I had a dream around 2am and at that moment, I knew something was going to happen. I knew something was wrong. When I woke up, we prayed against it and I called my husband but it did not connect. My last conversation with him was around 5.30pm on May 7, 2013 when he told me that they were going for a special operation. He said they were neither told the place nor their mission. We have retrieved his body and he was buried last Sunday. I have been getting support from his family and we are here to collect his entitlement. The government gave us some money for the burial and they said they would give us something today. They gave us some forms to fill."
