After observing his wife for some time in a video, he went straight to where his newborn was and sprayed the child some naira notes
Many people who watched the video condemned the man, saying his act is unhealthy for the new baby and he should have appreciated his wife.
2. Cissé Abdullahi
A man, Cissé Abdullahi, from Ilorin wanted to run away to Benin Republic when his wife delivered four babies with one pregnancy.
The man revealed that he only had about N3,500 when the news was delivered to him. Abdullahi stated that though what happened was worth celebrating, how to take care of the babies gave him a big scare.
He appealed:
“I need the assistance of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State, the chairmen of the three councils in Badagry, and well-meaning Nigeria to take care of my children."
3. Austin Ohenhen
A Nigerian man from Edo state, Austin Ohenhen, ran away when his wife gave birth to quadruplets.
The man said that he only returned after family members encouraged and made him see the good in the situation that scared him.
Austin's wife said when she knew she was pregnant, she considered aborting the pregnancy but there was no money to carry it out. Following their interview with Legit TV, Nigerians donated towards their welfare.
Be prepared for parenthood
Before thinking about parenthood, it is important for both parents to be mentally and financially prepared to handle the responsibilities.
Intentional parenthood is significant as the family is the first agent of socialisation, and whatever goes wrong in families affects society.
