The wife of a member of the Adamawa State House of Assembly, Lumsambani Dilli, has delivered triplets after 24 years of marriage.

“Both the mother and the babies are all hale and hearty,” said the new father on Wednesday in a statement.

“I can’t express the pure happiness of having a baby,” the excited lawmaker, who represents Demsa Local Government Area, said.

“The lord is good as today Mr. and Mrs. Lumsambani Mijah Dilli are blessed with triplets after 24 years of marriage without bearing a child, glory be to God,” she said.
