The wife of Zamfara State Governor, Hajiya Huriya Lawal, has promised to pay the medical bill of a woman who delivered triplets in Gusau.

Senior Special Assistant on Media and Communication to the governor’s wife, Hajjiya Zahara’u Musa, disclosed this in a statement to journalists in Gusau on Friday.

“The first lady has directed the referral of the triplets and their mother to the Federal Medical Centre, Gusau, for effective medical care,” she said.

According to her, the triplets’ mother stated her complaint when the governor’s wife visited King Fahad Women and Children Hospital in Gusau.

“On receipt of the complaint, the governor’s wife directed their relocation to the FMC Gusau, for proper upkeep and medication,” he said.

She, however, lamented that two of the triplets died, adding that the governor’s wife directed proper care of the surviving child, now under the Intensive Care Unit.

Ms Musa said her principal donated items such as toiletries, diapers, pampers and milk to the mother.

The triplets were delivered at King Fahd Abdulaziz Women and Children Hospital, Samaru, Gusau, on January 31.
