Wonders shall never disappear. Before I go talk anything just read this story first, then .....
The desire of a 34-year-old mason, Ziblim Nashiru, a resident of Tamale, to have a wife to spend the rest of his life with ended under bizarre circumstances, making the groom the laughing stock of his community.
Nashiru, who had his Islamic
wedding with Shafau Mohammed, a community health assistant under the National
Youth Employment Programme, last Sunday, was shocked when his bride gave birth
less than 24 hours after the marriage ceremony.
Residents of Changli, their suburb
where the Islamic ceremony took place,
are yet to come to terms with the
reality that the chosen bride for the mason was delivered of a baby boy
moments into the couple’s honeymoon.
The baby, who is currently being
nurtured in an incubator at the Tamale Teaching Hospital, Daily Guide
investigations have uncovered, was not due for delivery as doctors indicated it
was supposed to have lived in its mother’s womb for some time.
Ziblim Nashiru, who lives in Zambarama
house, has since denied responsibility for the babyand the pregnancy and
instructed his kinsmen to get the woman out of his house.
He said if he had been aware of the
pregnancy, he would not have gone ahead with the Islamic wedding.
Snippets of information gathered by
Daily Guide revealed that the two had been courting for over a year now and
decided to marry after the man proposed.
It was rumored in the community that
the lady in question was pregnant, thus prompting the man to confront her to
confirm the allegation or otherwise.
The bride vehemently denied ever being
pregnant and accused the relations of the man of trying to sabotage her marriage
which she had long dreamt of.
Sisters of the man reportedly insisted
the man take his wife to the hospital for thorough investigation into the
pregnancy but their call fell on death ears until the man was given the shock of
his life on Monday
According to some guests at the wedding
ceremony last Sunday, the bride and his groom were all smiles after the
recitation of the Koran, followed by prayers preceding the party that officially
pronounced the two, husband and wife.
Later in the evening, the woman after
supper was reported to have complained of severe abdominal pains but before she
could be rushed to the hospital, she delivered, causing fear and panic in the
entire vicinity.
Some residents dispelled reports that
the woman had given birth until they saw her being taken to the hospital for
further medical attention.
Doctors at the health facility realised
that it was premature birth and demanded that the baby be placed in an
incubator.
Meanwhile, the husband insists that the
woman look for the biological father of the baby since he did not sire the
baby.
All attempts to speak to the groom
proved futile.
