Nigeria Police seek support for officer whose wife gave birth to triplets

Police in Enugu State on Monday sought the support of public-spirited individuals, groups, and organisations for the family of a police corporal whose wife was delivered of a set of triplets on March 21.

Helen, the wife of Corporal Kingsley Nnamani, serving in the Nsukka Urban Division of the Nigeria Police Force, successfully delivered three baby boys.

The new arrivals brought the couple’s number of children to four, as they had a two-year-old daughter before the new arrivals.

Leading the campaign for support, the state commissioner of police, Kanayo Uzuegbu, noted that the delivery marked a recurring and amazing phenomenon in the police command in Enugu State.

The wife of a police sergeant similarly delivered a set of triplets in May 2023 at the police clinic in Enugu.

“This leaves no doubt that police officers, men and women in Enugu State are fertile,’’ said the police spokesman in Enugu State, DSP Daniel Ndukwe, who quoted Mr Uzuegbu as saying.

The police commissioner described the children as good omen for the police and Enugu State in general.

He urged people of goodwill to support the corporal and his family.
