Wife of a petty trader in Anambra State, Mrs Chidinma Amaechi, has given birth to a set of quintuplets–three boys and two girls, after nine years of childless marriage.

The kids were delivered at Life International Hospital Awka, Anambra State, through caesarean section, on Thursday 28th March 2023.

Mrs Amaechi, who is 28 years old, finished her National Youth Service Corps program in July last year and is married to Mr Tochukwu Amaechi, an Onitsha-based trader.

A caregiver said the babies are now in the intensive care unit of the hospital, adding that the children and their mother were responding very well to treatment, and there is no cause for any alarm.

The elder sister of the nursing mother, Mrs Ebele Oranekwu, called on the Anambra State government, Non-Governmental Organisations and individuals to come to their aid, to enable them offset the huge medical bills staring them in the face.

She said the bill for the incubators alone is N250,000 for each day, and the children are expected to be on it for about 30 days.

“The bill at the end may amount to about N7.5 million aside from other huge bills already accumulated in the past two months of managing the delicate pregnancy at the hospital,” she added.
