Taaka lost her only daughter, Jennifer Auma, who died while attempting to abort. The Senior Three student at Banda Secondary School was a darling to many. With tears streaming down her face, Taaka said: “My husband died when Auma was three years old. I have been struggling to raise her and her four brothers. ......but by the time I reached her, she was lifeless, lying in a pool of blood. I heard that the man who impregnated her took her to a quack doctor, and when her health deteriorated, they disappeared.”
