A Kenyan woman working in Saudi Arabia has opened up about how her dream of marriage quickly turned into a painful financial nightmare.
Mercy, who has been in the Gulf for four years, revealed that she met a man who introduced himself as Pastor Joseph.
According to her, what started as a promising online relationship turned into one of the biggest regrets of her life.
Speaking in an interview, Mercy said the two planned to wed in December this year.
She even informed her parents about the wedding date, believing Joseph was serious.
“He told me he had already bought land in Lamu and Meru with my money, and even claimed to have built a house,” she recalled.
