Nigerian man cr!es for help as wife delivers 11 babies between two months interval
The extraordinary births of eleven babies between July 7 and August 14 by a woman who was pregnant for three years and her Nigerian husband has massively shaken the internet space.
This occurred in two separate batches, with a first set of six and the second set of five: eight boys and three girls out of which two (girls) died in the birth process.
The husband, 56-year-old Yahaya Nafiu, who is the Missioner of the Ilorin Descendants Progressive Union (IEDPU) in Port Novo, Ajasse, and Cotonou said,
“Just a few days after the first set of babies was born, my wife noticed unusual movements in her stomach. When we went to the hospital, a scan revealed she was carrying another set of babies. This led us to return to the original birth attendant, where the second set of five babies was delivered.”
He however lamented that his family is facing financial constraints due to the huge amount of money required to take care of the babies and appealed to both the federal and state governments as well as individuals to come to his aid. In his words,
“One other major challenge that we are now facing before we could bring the children home to Ilorin to show them to my own parents, is how to raise money for the marriage rites, as well as medical bill and police report”
