A 25-year-old mother, Patience Abantelhe, has delivered a set of quadruplets and decided to embrace family planning.
The babies, who weigh 1.7, 1.7, 1.2 and 1.3 kilograms respectively are currently in an incubator at the hospital and are the third, fourth, fifth and sixth children of the Abantelhes, who already have two children.
Southern City News learnt on Tuesday that Abantelhes' desire to embrace family planning technique was influenced by the Director-General of the Cross River State Primary Healthcare Development Agency, Dr. Betta Edu, who visited her in the hospital.
The woman was delivered of three boys and one girl last Friday at the Sacred Heart Hospital in Obudu, Cross River State through caesarean session.
She had said that she would no longer wish to have more babies.
In a message related to Southern City News by the director-general after the visit, Abantelhe said, “I know about family planning and I will do it before I leave the hospital, I do not want any other children now.”
That's a no-brainer, she doesn't need anymore children.
