He added that this was his wife’s ninth delivery.
He added that medical personnel at the hospital were giving the mother and her newborns special attention to ensure their wellbeing.
Meanwhile, the Kano State Government has announced that it will take full responsibility for the healthcare of the mother and her quintuplets.

He added that the government remained committed to supporting vulnerable families to ensure access to quality healthcare across the state.
Earlier this month, GISTSMATE MEDIA reported that Aa Ogun State housewife and mother of five children, Mrs Mufiat Olateju, delivered a set of quadruplets at the Federal Medical Centre, Abeokuta, Ogun State, on Wednesday.
Olateju, while speaking to newsmen at the hospital on Thursday, begged the state government and well-meaning individuals to support her family in caring for the newborn babies, adding that they were yet to pay the medical bills.
She explained that the birth of the four children came as a surprise to the family, as earlier medical scans did not reveal that she was carrying such a large number of babies. READ MOREÂ
