Husband flees as wife welcomes triplets


Ukamaka, a 35-year-old wife has been allegedly abandoned by her husband Mr. Nwiziogo Nkwegu of Obegu Village in the Ozibo Local Government Area of Ebonyi State after she gave birth to a set of triplets.
It was gathered that Ukamaka, who was Nkwegu’s third wife, gave birth to the triplets – two boys and a girl – at a traditional maternity home in Abakaliki, the Ebonyi State capital, three weeks ago.
Southern City News reported that the woman was forced to approach the traditional maternity home as opposed to going to the hospital as a result of her husband’s complaint that he had no money.
Ukamaka now a mother of six, having given birth to a set of twins and another single child before the triplets does menial jobs to support herself and her children.
However, since she was delivered of the triplets three weeks ago, the mother had been begging for assistance from well-meaning Nigerians as her husband had disappeared from home and refused to pick her telephone calls.
Assistance, however, visited the woman after a former lawmaker representing Ezza North/Ishielu Federal Constituency of Ebonyi State at the House of Representatives, Chief Peter Edeh, donated an undisclosed sum of money to her.
The cash donation was made to the woman on behalf of Edet by his personal assistance, Peter Nwali.
The ex-lawmaker urged the woman to go for family planning, while appealing to the runaway husband to return home and join hands to take care of the triplets.
