God, These Blessings Are Too Much For Me - Mother Of Nine
The birth of the quadruplets has brought the total number of the woman’s children to nine. Paulina’s husband, Mr. Lucius Kanvong, had in the early hours of February 27, this year, visited his wife, who was in labour at the hospital.
He was reportedly shocked to have met his wife with four premature children. Confused, he expressed a mixture of joy and worry, as he had limited resources to raise the four children. One of those who got wind of the arrival of the premature children was Dr. Barclays Foubiri Ayakoroma, Executive Secretary, National Institute for Cultural Orientation (NICO).
He called on government and well-meaning Nigerians to support the family, whose breadwinner, Mr. Kanvong, is a peasant farmer in Assu-Attakar village, Kaura Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
Already, some concerned Nigerians have been showing concern and supporting the family. They include Chairman of Kaura Local Government Area of Kaduna State, Mr. Kumai Babung, and the Chief of Takab Chiefdom, Mr. Tobias Wada (Agwan Takab 1). They were said to have visited the family to felicitate with them and offer material and financial donations.
Although the birth of the quadruplets has continued to attract compliments from well wishers, Mr. Lucius Kanvong, the father, appears to have received the babies with mixed feelings.
While he is happy that the wife successfully delivered four babies at a time, the challenge of catering for the children continues to haunt him. According to Mr. Jerry Bighan, elder brother to the father of the quadruplets, who is also a staff of the Kaduna State Ministry of Culture and Tourism, Lucius, has continued to live with the fear of the unknown, having had five children already.
Bighan explained that Lucius had confided in him that he was expecting just one baby to make up six children and stop childbearing but has now ended up with nine children. Moreover, he is worried that as a peasant farmer, he may not be able to cater for the children.
