The wife of Zamfara Governor, Hajjiya Huriya Lawal, has promised to shoulder the medical bill of a woman who delivered triplets in Gusau.
Hajjiya Zahara’u Musa, Senior Special Assistant on Media and Communication to the governor’s wife, disclosed this in a statement, made available to Newsmen in Gusau, on Friday.
“The first lady has directed the referral of the triplets and their mother to Federal Medical Center (FMC), Gusau, for effective medical care,” she said.
According to her, the triplets’ mother forwarded her complaint when the governor’s wife visited King Fahad Women and Children Hospital in Gusau.
“On receipt of the complaint, the governor’s wife directed their relocation to FMC Gusau, for proper upkeep and medication,” he said.
She, however, lamented that two of the triplets died, adding that the governor’s wife directed proper care of the surviving child, now under Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
Musa said her principal donated items like toiletries, diapers, pampers and milk to the mother of the three babies.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the triplets were delivered at King Fahd Abdulaziz Women and Children Hospital, Samaru, Gusau, on Jan. 31. (NAN) (
