“But despite all these, she conceived and was confirmed to be carrying four babies after a scan.
“We then visited the Kubwa General Hospital where she had a second scan and the same thing was confirmed; even with the expected date of delivery next month.
“But we had to rush back last Thursday as she started observing signs of delivery. She gave birth to the four babies without any operation,’’ Mr Agbo said.
Speaking on the use of contraceptives as claimed by the couple, a chief medical consultant of Kubwa General Hospital identified as Dr Onogwu Joseph felt the man's wife didn't use the contraceptives well which resulted in the pregnancies.
Man who attempted fleeing after wife died while giving birth to triplets opens up
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh previously reported that a man who wanted to run away after his wife died while delivering triplets had opened up on his intention.
In an exclusive interview with YEN.com.gh, Kabir said he seriously considered fleeing due to the enormous burden left for him by his wife.
According to the man, he never knew that his wife was going to give birth to triplets because the initial scan had revealed only two babies.
He disclosed that he received the good news with a happy heart but that things later turned around. He said he was embittered.
