Ogun State Government has extended support to Mrs Mufiat Olateju, a housewife in Abeokuta who recently delivered a set of quadruplets at the Federal Medical Centre, Abeokuta.

The Commissioner for Women Affairs and Social Development, chief  Adijat Adeleye, led the management team of the ministry on a visit to the hospital to convey the government’s goodwill and congratulate the family.

The delegation was received by the Chief Medical Director of the hospital, Dr Titilola Ibiyemi, who welcomed the team and appreciated the state government for the gesture.

Chief Adeleye assured the family of the state government’s moral and financial support to help cater for the needs of the newborn babies and their mother.

She also commended the management and medical team of the hospital for their professionalism in ensuring a safe delivery and reaffirmed government’s commitment to improving the welfare of mothers and children across the state.

Mrs Mufiat Olateju, who had five children before the delivery, gave birth to the quadruplets last week at the Federal Medical Centre, Abeokuta, bringing her total number of children to nine.
