On Wednesday, a woman reportedly suffering from mental illness gave birth to a baby girl by the roadside in Suleja, Niger State. The delivery happened in full view of the public, with only two kind-hearted individuals stepping forward to assist the woman in her distress.

Their efforts were successful, and the woman delivered a healthy baby girl. Following the birth, they took the mother and her newborn to the General Hospital in Suleja for medical care.

Asa expressed his joy and gratitude on social media, writing: “What a day in my life 🙏

“At Last, it was successful 🙏… God is indeed Wonderful 🙏….. What a beautiful baby girl… We later took her to General Hospital Suleja for further Treatment….
