Ghanaian transgender, Ohemartin, (real name; Martin Hughes) admitted to being born a man; but now wants to be referred to as a woman. Ohemartin sure does have a tough skin because it takes a lot of guts to publicly declare yourself a transgender in the African setting; as majority of Africans see everything wrong with it.
Narrating her childhood, Ohemartin said that she realized so early how she was in the wrong body as he always wanted to be a girl; and because of this, she was bullied as an adolescent for not acting wholly as a boy; and life in an all-boys senior high school was hell for her as her female traits gave her out most often.
Ohemartin revealed how at a very young age she realized that she was in the wrong body as she wanted to be a girl.

“I caught myself in a role I didn’t want to play anymore at the age of 7. The vibe of the boys was annoying. I think it was toxic for me because I felt like a girl playing with boys,” she said.
During a recent interview with TV show host Delay, she also said; “...a lot of bullying went on; that was hell. In a boys school, when you have feminine traits, you get bullied. People get to talk about you. It’s a whole charade on it’s own…I was very uncomfortable but I survived. I think I psyched my mind that I am in an environment full of boys so I had to cope no matter what“.
Ohemartin complained she faced so much discrimination due to her situation; and even had a number of guys proposing to him when he was in high school. But for now, she’s living her true self despite the odds against her.
Further commenting on back and front issues surrounding the anti-LGBTQ+ bill, she said; “…the future is very unsafe for me…very very unsafe”, she further told host Deloris Frimpong Manso.
Although Ohemartin lives a private life, she is very active on social media where she flaunts curvaceous body which she claims is natural; and extravagant lifestyle for her fans.
