Controversy is presently raging through
Mushin area of Lagos State Nigeria following
the birth of a baby boy born holding a mini
Holy Quran.
This baby boy was delivered at a white
garment church in Mushin, Lagos State.
While some dispute the claim, others say it is
possible. A large crowd gathered at 1, Sonde
Street, Ijeshatedo, Lagos home of the boy’s
parents yesterday, as news of the birth
spread rapidly.
Mother’s Comment On Baby Boy Born With
Quran In Lagos State, Nigeria
The baby mother, Mrs. Kikelomo Ilori, 32, a
Cosmetologist by profession told reporters
she delivered him on Monday after she had
carried the pregnancy for about 10 months.
The single mother claimed she was
abandoned by her husband who denied
responsibility for the pregnancy and
encouraged her to abort it.
“When I refused to abort the pregnancy, he
deserted me, saying ‘that is your own
problem’.” Mrs. Ilori expressed surprise at the
birth of the boy. She added that the nurse
who delivered her of the baby was physically
challenged, but went about it commendably.
“When my baby was delivered holding a
Quran in his hand, the nurse said the Quran
should be thrown away. But I insisted my
mother must see it before any action could be
taken,” Kikelomo, who is a Christian, further
explained.
Corroborating the story, Senior Rev. Victoria
Yetunde Dada said during the pregnancy,
Kikelomo was always coming to her for
prayers and counselling.
“I advised her not to abort the pregnancy
because she might die in the process. Again, I
told her the foetus was sent by God and will
be great,” Apostle Mother Dada told our
correspondent. Controversy has continued to
trail the seemingly spurious claim.
Doctor’s Reaction To Baby Born With Quran In
Lagos
Reacting, Medical Director of Bodet Hospital,
Ikeja, Lagos, Dr. Bode Tawak said scientifically,
it was not possible for a baby to be born
holding a Quran.
“How big is the baby’s hand to hold the
Quran? How big is the Quran? How did the
Quran get into her mother’s womb? I don’t
know how a Quran can get into a womb. But
there are things you can’t explain,” Dr. Tawak
responded. He said while the incident cannot
be explained medically, in Nigeria many
mysterious things happen. A Kaduna-based
medical practitioner, Dr. Munir Yusuf said
from a medical point of view, it was not
possible, but added that depending on the
size of the Quran, it was possible
metaphysically.
He explained that if the Quran is small enough
to pass through the diameter of the vagina,
with the child, it is possible. In the same vein,
a herbal medicine practitioner, Chief Dr. Bola
Adegunloye believes nothing is impossible,
but said too much importance must not be
placed on the incident.
