But problem soon started pouring in my husband bought second wife through polygamy. Domestic violence started I ran to my parents home for shelter. My daughter time for admission came birth registration was required but without marriage registration I could not have birth certificate for my daughter future I decided to marry second time with a single hope of making my daughter future bright. "
