Hadiza Ndayebo, a Nigerian nurse has given birth to a set of
quadruplets at the Jumai Babangida Aliyu Maternal and
Neonatal Hospital in Minna, the Niger State capital after 17
years of childnessness..
One of the babies, however, died shortly after birth.
Northern City News gathered that the nurse got pregnant
through artificial insemination after waiting for many years.
According to reports, the mother of quadruplets had been on
admission in the hospital for over seven months for proper
monitoring before she was delivered of the babies on
Monday.
“I went through artificial insemination because I had been
battling with infertility for over 16 years. By December 28, it
will be my 17th year in marriage. Although 10 years ago I
had a normal pregnancy but I gave birth pre-term at 28
weeks and the baby died after some days,”
she explained.
Ndayebo, who is the second wife of her husband, said none
of her family members believed her when she informed them
that she was pregnant with quadruplets. She said although
one of the babies died, she was grateful that she had been
compensated for the long years of barrenness.
She noted, “The babies are two males and two females.
Losing one of the female is the will of God. My family did
not believe I was carrying quadruplets but they are joyous
when they came.”
