A woman (names withheld) gave birth to a strange looking
child on Monday at the General hospital Kagarko, Kagarko local
government, after several hours of labour.
Reports say the woman, an indigene of SabonIceh village,
gave birth to a baby that looked more like a monkey with
unusual ears and feet.
One of the nurses who attended to the woman said, “The
pregnant woman was rushed to the hospital at about 7:30 am,
Monday. And we immediately took her into the labour
room.”
“The woman came in through the out-patient department
(OPD) after seeing the doctor on call and I decided to rupture
her because the cervix was fully dilated. After I ruptured her,
fluid measuring about 26 litres gushed out after which she
started bleeding. All this time, the baby was still in the
womb.”
“When the bleeding persisted, I sent for the medical director
and when she came, we went into the theatre to operate on
the woman. In the process, the baby started coming out with
the legs. So, the medical director asked me to stop and allow
her to deliver the baby by herself.
Speaking further, the nurse said, “She delivered the baby
breech and when it came out, we discovered that it was an
abnormal baby. It was half human and half animal. We lost the
baby shortly after delivery.
The nurse who spoke on condition of anonymity said the baby
weighed four kilograms adding that the mother of the baby is
currently receiving treatment at the hospital.
“She lost a lot of blood so we have to give her blood,” she
said.
