black Nigerian Couple Gives Birthto White Baby by Nobody: 9:49pm On Feb 15, 2013
When Angela Ihegboro first saw her
newborn daughter, she was
“speechless.”
“She’s a miracle baby,” the 35-year-old
mother said yesterday. “But still, what
on earth happened here?”
What happened is that baby Nmachi is
a blue-eyed, blond-haired white baby
born to two black Nigerian immigrant
parents at a London hospital.
“The first thing I said was, ‘What the
flip?’ ” said the father, Ben Ihegboro.
“We both just sat there after the birth
staring at her for ages — not saying
anything.”
He quickly sought to dispel any
speculation.
“Of course she is mine. My wife is true
to me,” the 44-year-old customer-
service adviser said. “Even if she hadn’t
been, the baby still wouldn’t look like
that.”
Genetics experts don’t believe in
miracles, but they didn’t have any
simple answers to the mystery of baby
Nmachi. Instead, they offered three
theories:
* She’s the result of a gene mutation
unique to her. If that is the case,
Nmachi would pass the gene to her
children — and they, too, would likely
be white.
* She’s the product of long-dormant
white genes, passed on to her by her
parents, that might have been carried
by their predecessors for generations
without surfacing until now.
* While doctors have said Nmachi is not
an outright albino, or lacking in all
pigment, they added that the child may
have some kind of mutated version of
the genetic condition — and that her
skin could darken over time.

shocked shocked shocked shocked grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin Away match. Bros take heart. So much for 21st century feminine liberation apologist. A DNA testing less than $30 would serve as a silver bullet. But again even if she played away match the baby cannot completely look white.

Maybe he does not want to go thru all the trouble knowing the child is not his, that's why he accepted the baby just like that.

Come to think of it, I wonder why the genetic experts did not analyse away match to be one of the causes?

the baby is completely blue eyed white which slims the chances of away match. But it's still possibly if the whiteee has got strong dominating genes

Or did the doctors give her someone else's baby by mistake?
Re: black Nigerian Couple Gives Birthto White Baby by Nobody: 10:07am On Feb 16, 2013
Don't you guys think that before geneticists will give those 3 probable causes they must have been absolutely sure she didn't play away match?

are u sure the baby isn't an albino?
