•Father and mother with the
quadruplets
Nigerians have contributed over N7.3 million to the family of Sodiq Olayode, whose wife, Abiodun, recently gave birth to a set of quadruplets.
The man had gone viral on X (formerly Twitter) after his colleague shared his story about his wife giving birth to quadruplets because the couple wanted to ‘add one more child’, reports The Nation.
Sharing the story on X, a user (JamesofGod @jamysax) wrote: “A colleague of mine who had two kids already said he should do and add one more. Guess how many his wife gave birth to? 4 at once”
He further shared a screenshot of what he said was one of Olayode’s WhatsApp posts about the number of diapers used in a short period.
The post read: “105 pieces of diapers in 6 days. Haaa, mo gbe mo daran. E shanu mi eyin quadruplet yi.”
James’ post on X gained the attention of readers, with some highlighting the challenges of raising young children.
In an interview with Feelrightnewstv on Facebook, Sodiq stated that they had been blessed with a daughter before the arrival of the quadruplets (two boys and two girls).
He added that the quadruplets were born at eight months because the pregnancy was becoming “life-threatening.”
Sharing details, James stated that as of 1.08 p.m., Olayode had received N7,313,958 million and some individuals had offered to give him baby items and diapers.
James said: “I reached out to them yesterday for their permission to post their picture and that of the children, as well as his account details.”
