Parents of triplets cry out for help in Delta

The parents of a set of triplets recently delivered at the Genera Hospital Orerokpe, headquarters of Okpe LGA, Delta State have solicited for public assistance as the triplets were confirmed to be too small and needed an incubator to further develop them.

After delivery, they were rejected by the Orerokpe General Hospital that delivered them and were promptly referred to Eku Baptist Hospital to be placed on incubators.

On getting there, the management of Eku Baptist Hospital were said to have referred them to Central Hospital Warri. At Central Hospital Warri, they were purportedly referred due to lack of space.

Consequently, the confused father of the triplets decided to take the babies to a private hospital. At the private hospital, they were asked to pay #150,000 before attending to them.

The couple who were further confused for lack of money to pay the whooping deposit later decided to take their babies home.

As at the time of filing this report, the triplets are at danger list of death except something urgent is done.

In a chat with journalists, the father of the triplets, Best Godwin Asaba decried the deplorable financial state of the family and appealed to the Delta State Government, Corporate bodies, politicians, churches, Non-Governmental Organization, and well-meaning individuals to come to the aid of the family so as to save the lives of the children.
