A Nigerian nurse has shared online the ‘unpleasant comment’ a man made after he was told his wife was about to deliver their first child.
The nurse identified as Idowu Olayinka, took to her Facebook page to disclose that the husband of the woman who was in labor was called and informed about his wife’s condition.
However, the man who was out in a drinking spot with friends asked if “he should go and die because his wife was in labor and was about to give birth to their first child”.
Expressing shock at the response of the man, the nurse wrote;
“How on earth will your wife be in labour and they called to inform you,” she wrote in a Facebook post on Wednesday.
“And the only thing you could say was ” Ehn ehn , should I go and d!e cos she is in labour? She should born wetin she wan born na”.
“Women we deserve better o. This man was out there with his friends drinking o. His first child!!! Hmmm. It is well.
“The lady was just crying. After the delivery was successful The lady put a call to her mum that she’s done with the marriage.
“She said there was a time when her husband locked her out cos she came back home late from the shop while pregnant.
“Her siblings had to call us not to allow the husband to take the baby away. Her brother came to Ijebu very early in the morning.
“I’m glad she has a very supportive family. Her brother keeps telling the lady that they’re ready to support her decisions.
