Man, 33, absconds as wife gives birth to triplet

ABEOKUTA— A 33 year old auto-mobile mechanic, Yemi Oyeniyi,  has absconded after  his wife Esther delivered triplets in Abeokuta.

Vanguard gathered that  Oyeniyi became uncomfortable four  months ago shortly after the result of  scan showed that his wife was carrying three babies.

Vanguard also gathered that the couple had two children before the triplets.

According to sources,  the woman was delivered of the babies who were all females last Monday and that their naming ceremony was organised by the family’s church members.

Speaking,  the mother of the triplets at Ogun State Hospital, Ijaye, Abeokuta, yesterday, Esther said  her husband started behaving strangely  when he got the result of the scan on June 3, 2012.

Esther Oyeniyi, 27, who is a teacher at a private nursey and primary school in Abeokuta,  said her husband’s behaviour before her delivery became  worrisome to her making her to relocate to a  church at Okeyidi, also in Abeokuta.

Narrating her ordeal, she said  she was brought  to  the State Hospital, Ijaiye, Abeokuta by church authorities  for admission on October 19,2012 and later  put to bed on October 29,2012.

The mother of the triplets lamented that, since Oyeniyi left their Okeyidi matrimonial home, his mobile phone had been switched off.

She  said her husband’s  family members reside in Iganna town of Oyo State.

According to her, the church organised the naming ceremony, as neither the run away husband nor any member of his family was  available.
