Zaria woman delivers baby with 4 hands, 3 legs
A mother of three, Malama Hawwa’u Jamilu has given birth to a set of twins, with one of them having four hands and three legs.
The 24-year-old, delivered the twins on Sunday, 25th February, 2018, in Zaria, Kaduna State.
Hawwa’u’s excitement put many to shock, as she wasn’t perturbed about the physique of her baby.
She regarded it as part of the might of Allah.
Both of the newborns are female.
“Of course, one would have loved to deliver the babies without any deformity. But since Allah in His infinite mercy had decided to create the twins like this, what can I do? This is why you see me relaxed, and I love them both,” she said.
“I love my daughter and I know that she is human, despite her physical challenge,” Hawwa’u said, adding that she has given birth three times before now, making the twins her fourth delivery during her six years of marriage.
Hawwa’u stressed that she doesn’t attend ante-natal sessions, saying that she delivered her other children at home, same as the twins.
A doctor at the Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital (ABUTH), Dr. Umar Abdul’aziz, said the extra leg and hands can be removed and the little girl can have a normal life.
