The Husband Of The Woman That Three Sets Of Twins Opens Up.

In an exclusive chat with The Nation yesterday the father and husband to the mother of three set of twins Ruth Uche opens up on why he abandoned his wife and children.

The factory worker who left his wife and children in April said life have been unbearable and miserable for him, that he left because he couldn't stand his family hungry.

In his words:
How could i watch my kids suffer ? i could not tolerate it, i didn't even have money to assist my family, i watch them suffer daily with out knowing what to do. There were nights i watch my children sleep without food. Some days i will buy garri 100  garri vand akara (bean cake) for my family because of my low income i was always debt before the end of the month.
Am a factory worker and i earn 33.000 after tax and union fees, then i have four children and a wife to take care of, which have been very difficult i couldn't stand having another set of twins that will come to this world to suffer.



Initially, i thought it would be a child , probably a son so i would two sons and three girls, but when i ,learnt it was twins again the only thing that came to my mind is to run away.
"It was not an easy decision and  i have not been happy knowing that i abandoned them. My wife is a very good woman and i love her, i love my children too, i became frustrated when i called my brother for assistance and  they didn't even answer me. i dressed up that morning band i knew i wont come back but i didn't   tell her so she wouldn't feel bad.
"Iam pained that i have not seen my wife and children for three months, sister you wont understand my situation but know that it has not been easy for  me " he lamented on phone as he refused to disclose his location.
His wife's response:
Please do not hang up the phone on me my heart,just listen to what i have to say.
"I understand that things have not been easy but you should know we have suffered alot, please come back to me and your children.
' No one will arrest you because you are still my husband i still love you, anyone who arrest you will kill me first.please talk to this aunt and also come so we can go to Alausa together.They are all good people and mean well for us,"
