Kenyan Man Seeks Help from Well-Wishers as Wife Gives Birth to Five Babies

A Kenyan man from Kisii County has appealed for help from well-wishers after his wife gave birth to five babies.

Douglas Nyaoko’s wife delivered the quintuplets at Kisii Teaching and Referral Hospital on Friday through a successful Cesarean Section.

The five babies—four girls and a boy—are currently in the baby incubator in a stable condition as the first-time mother recovers.

Speaking to the media at the healthy facility, Nyaoko said they expecting four babies based on an ultrasound carried out during the antenatal clinics.

The newest father in town says he was shocked when he learned that his spouse gave birth to the five babies. 

Nyaoko, who has no formal employment, fears the babies could be a burden to him and has pleaded with well-wishers to assist the family to raise them.
