He said it was a normal birth but lamented that the mum passed on due to uncontrollable bleeding 7 days after on June 5, leaving the kids for the father. The family already had one kid before the triplets were born.
In an earlier Facebook post, an appeal was sent out to Governor Gboyega Oyetola to come to the aide of the family.
The post reads in part:
"Mr. Azeez Tijani received blessing of a set of triplet 7 days ago but unfortunately, Mrs. Foluke Azeez, the mother of the new born triplet gave up yesterday when the fruits of the womb clocked 6 days on earth.. Alas! This is so sad!"
He asked those who want to help the family in any way to call: +2349091154748.
Nigerian NGO donates to triplets in Ogun
A Nigerian NGO visited the family of Kabir Owoyemi and donated the sum of N1m to his triplets.
The NGO is identified as Givers Supportive Foundation and is well-known for such acts of great kindness to members of the public.
The organisation said it got wind of the situation in the Owoyemi family through a Facebook tag and had to do something to intervene.
Apart from the monetary donation, there were other goodies including some money for the opening of bank accounts for the children.
