The Nigerian mother of the triplets whose husband ran away when the news of the birth reached him last week has received assistance from her home state, the Ogun State government.
Responding to many calls from the people and good Samaritans, government has facilitated the opening of a bank account for the woman to enable those who want to assist the woman and her children do so.
The account was opened with Sterling Bank with the Account name: Akapo
Taiwo Kehinde Idowu, Account number: 0021422589, Sort code: 232170012.
The state Commissioner for Women Affairs and Social Development,
Mrs Elizabeth Sokunbi had led the government delegates to visit the
Afojupa village house of the mother of the babies in Owode-Egba in
Obafemi/ Owode local government area of Ogun State with the
traditional ruler of Owode, Oba Kolawole Sowemimo.
The state government donated clothing materials, babies’ needs as well as cash.
Mrs. Akapo, expressed appreciation for the government gesture and also thanked the traditional ruler for his priceless support before and after she gave birth to the triplets.
Bosede Akapo and her triplets
She seized the occasion to appeal to her runaway husband, who has not
shown up at home since she delivered the babies, to come out of
hiding, especially now that government has offered assistance for the
welfare of the children.
The 30-year-old mother of five, Bosede Akapo was assisted by a
neigbour on a motorcycle to the hospital on Wednesday, 24 July, 2013
when she was pressed with labour and thereafter delivered triplets at
Ore-ofe Maternity Home in Owode-Egba town.
The monarch of the community paid the hospital bill.
Both the woman and her children are in good condition, though, the head of the family.
