A 56-year-old indigene of Ilorin in Kwara State identified as Yahaya Nafiu, whose wife gave birth to 11 babies in Benin Republic, has cr+3d out for help.
Nafiu appealed to spirited individuals to assist him with money so that he could care for the babies and their mothers.
Nafiu’s wife, Alake, 54, delivered 11 babies in Port Novo Ajasse, Cotonou, Benin Republic.
Nafiu confirmed that two of the babies d+ed, but the remaining nine are hale and hearty.
However, he lamented that his family is grappling with financial constraints due to the huge amount of money required to care for the babies and their mother.
“One other major challenge that we are now facing before we could bring the children home to Ilorin to show them to my parents is how to raise money for the marriage rites, as well as medical bills and police report”, Nafiu said.
It was gathered that a birth attendant took delivery of the babies on two different occasions.
“A few days after the delivery of the first set of children, the mother said she observed strange movement in her stomach and on getting to the hospital after a scan was carried out, the doctor revealed that she was carrying another set of children, which led them to contact the initial birth attendant where the next set of five babies was delivered”, Nafiu said.
He disclosed that he saw God’s miracle in the way the children were delivered, revealing that their pregnancy lasted over three years before delivery.
In his reaction to the development, the national president of the Ilorin Emirate Descendants Progressive Union (IEDPU), Alh Abdulmumini Abdulmalik, confirmed that the father of the children hails from Onikeke Compound, Popo Giwa area of Ilorin.
He expressed delight that an Ilorin indigene living in Cotonou, Benin Republic, has been blessed with decuplets.
“While welcoming the decuplets and congratulating the parents on this uncommon blessing, we rejoice with the Emir of Ilorin, Alh Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, during whose reign this glorious history of an Ilorin indigene having decuplets is recorded,” he added.

It may still be the heat of summer, but for drivers, gas prices may feel a little like spring.
National regular gas prices averaged $3.36 a gallon going into the Labor Day weekend, hovering near lows not seen since March, AAA found. The average is 14 cents lower than the same time last month and $1.66 less than the all-time high recorded in June 2022.
Gas prices have been lower this summer than in recent ones. AAA data shows the national gas price average is around 50 cents a gallon less than during the same time in the past two years. However, the national average is hovering at about 20 cents more than during the same period in 2021.
Geopolitical tensions are having a limited effect on gas prices right now and cease-fire talks could further calm oil investors worries.
A relatively calm storm season is also helping keep prices lower. Limited disruptions at gasoline-producing oil refineries helping push gas prices lower and could help keep prices steady over the rest of the year, analysts said.
“The clouds of war overseas are less dark at the moment and the Atlantic is quiet now too, which is taking pressure off of oil prices,” said AAA spokesperson Andrew Gross in a press release.
