Oluomachi Nwoye, a 24-year-old final-year student at Michael Okpara University of Agriculture (MOUAU) in Abia state, gave birth to quintuplets at the Federal Medical Centre Umuahia.
The quintuplets, who were born at 9:15 p.m. on Monday, October 3, are said to be the first set of quintuplets to be delivered at the medical center.
According to the Vanguard, the two boys are receiving special care at the hospital’s “in-born unit.”
Mrs. Priscilla Nwojo, Oluomachi’s mother, appealed to the government and well-meaning Nigerians to come to the family’s aid, saying she is delighted by the gift of quintuplets to her daughter and believes such unique blessings often come with their own challenges.
It’s difficult for her to care for one baby, let alone five.

“I thank God for this unique gift.” I work as a trader. My husband is a tailor, and I deal in pap. We will be grateful if the government can assist us because it is difficult to care for one (baby), let alone five. But in everything, we give thanks to God.” She stated.
According to reports, the father of the quintuplets had yet to arrive at the hospital as of Tuesday afternoon, October 5.
