A woman in Kebbi State unexpectedly gave birth to twin boys on Sunday during a fundraising event organised by the state’s First Lady, Zainab Nasir Idris, in Birnin Kebbi.
The event, held at the Haliru Audu Stadium, was aimed at mobilising support for women’s groups and was attended by Governor Nasir Idris, his wife, and other party supporters.
Eyewitnesses said the woman had attended the gathering to seek assistance when she suddenly went into labour and delivered the twins at the venue. She was later taken, alongside the newborns, to a hospital for medical attention.
In response, Bello Dallatun Ka’oje, the House of Representatives member representing Suru/Bagudo Federal Constituency, announced a donation of N5 million on behalf of the governor to support the mother’s treatment and the naming ceremony of the children.
