BY Umukpedi Emmanuel
AS Deltans join the rest of the world to crossover to 2013, a New Year baby with six other boys were delivered at the Warri Central Hospital.
The baby boy who weighed 3.4kg was safely delivered at 1.32am to the family of Pastor Enoch and Mrs. Healing Odibo, who reside in Warri. They hail from Ekiugbo in Ughelli South Local Government.
The wife of the State Governor, Deaconess Roli Nere Uduaghan who was at the hospital yesterday to celebrate with the children and mothers gave them gift items, words of advice and prayers for the bundle of joy from God.
While presenting gift items to the new year baby and other babies, she thanked God for their safe delivery and prayed that God will protect them.
She said that 2013 is for only those that are in God’s boat and believe in Him will survive. She thereby enjoined everyone to pray for God’s grace to live right so that the storm that will come will not consume them.
According to Mrs. Uduaghan, “This time as many that have Jesus in their boat will not sink.”
She used the occasion to advice all parents to always pay attention to their children, pointing that God has gracefully given them the children. She counselled parents not to abondon their children in pursuit of work or business.
While speaking to Journalists, the 26-year old mother of the new year baby, Mrs. Healing Odibo, a trader, thanked God for making her to deliver safely like the Hebrew woman.
She thanked the state governor for the free maternal health care she enjoyed at the hospital having had her antenatal clinic and delivery free of charge.
Her husband, Pastor Enoch Odibo said he felt great and full of joy having the new baby of the year. He thanked the state governor and asked God to guide and strengthen him on account of his kind desposition towards women in the state.
Also speaking, Dr. Ikechukwu Nwaeze, who was among the medical team that delivered the baby, said they were able to monitor and deliver the babies safely.
The Zonal Medical Director, Dr. Kingsley Agholor who took the Governor’s wife round the ward said the delivery of the six children were successful.
