A secondary school teacher, Sabina Mamah, who gave to quadruplets after 14 years of marriage, has sought assistance from well-meaning Nigerians.
Mrs Mamah, who hails from Obollo Orie in the Udenu Council Area of Enugu State, gave birth to three boys and a girl.
She said that she was currently at the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, Enugu and is unable to defray her medical bills.
She said, “I got pregnant around October 2023 and after an ultrasound, I was told that I was carrying quadruplets. I registered at UNTH for antenatal and I gave birth on April 23, through caesarean section. I am a secondary school teacher while my husband Christopher, is a driver.’’
The 46-year-old woman said she got married in 2010 but was unable to take in.
The excited mother added that, “On Sunday, a good Samaritan cleared the bill for the babies amounting to N600, 000. I have been discharged but cannot afford my bill of over N40, 000 because I don’t have the money. Aside the bills, we owe money for the items we bought in the hospital like diapers and baby milk as the children consume a lot of it.’’
Thanking the hospital for delivering her of the babies, Mrs Mamah said, “I am appealing to Nigerians to come to my help so that we can go back home. I want them also to support me in raising these wonderful gifts of God. I call on the Enugu State Government and Nigerians to come to our aid.
“Support me through my account number 3033152627, Sabina Obetta, First Bank with my phone number 08034552609 and my God will bless you.’’
Her husband, Christopher, also called on good-spirited Nigerians for support.
“I am a tipper driver and I cannot take care of these babies on my own,” he said.
