Lagos State Begs Father Of Tripple Twins To Come Out Of Hiding

The government of lagos State has appealed to Mr Emeka Benjamin Uche who abandoned his three pairs of twins and their mother, to come out of hiding and face his responsibility. Deputy Governor Idiat Adebule told The Nation yesterday that the government would rehabilitate the family.
Uche, a Lagos factory worker, 39, fled home when he learnt that his expectant wife was carrying a set of twins – the family’s third. Dr Adebule enjoined Uche to come out of hiding, saying the children are blessings from God. She said: “It is even an emotional stress for the mother, an emotional stress to the children and entire family.”
Speaking on plans to assist Mrs Uche, the deputy governor promised to visit the nursing mother today.
“We have contacted her, I have spoken to her and a delegation from the government has gone to see her; they inquired about the health of the children and the general welfarism. I hope to see her by the grace of God tomorrow (today). Lagos State is working to rehabilitate her and assist the family to fend for themselves.
“We intend to give her monthly allowance to take care of the children. We are imploring him (Mr Uche) to come home to meet his family and take up his responsibility,” she said.
Mrs Adebule enjoined other men in similar situation not to run away, but to seek help. “They should not run away from their responsibilities; they actually bring these children to this world. They should be responsible for them. Running away is not the solution; they should rather stay, seek for help and be prayerful. They should not add salt to the injury by running away,” she said.
Morover, Lagos State House of Assembly Speaker Mudashiru Obasa has donated food items, beverages and cash to Mrs Ruth Uche whose husband Emeka Benjamin Uche disappeared from home on learning they were expecting their third set of twins.
Obasa said: “We came to congratulate you on the successful delivery of these beautiful gifts from God and to assure you that you will not suffer in bringing up these children. We must continue to thank God for everything. It was through the mercy of God that you delivered these twins through normal delivery after going through Caesarian routes in your previous deliveries.”
