MAYOWAAK: I am aware that many of us were fed with stories of pregnancies trapped in women for 3 years by witches and wizards. Perhaps I expected too much by assuming we have outgrown such stories. It seems my assumption is incorrect. Now, a foetus is said to be at term after completing 37 weeks in the uterus of its mother. Some are born before this 37 weeks. These are the premature babies(provided they have attained the age of viability - this varies depending on how sophisticated Neonatal care is in that society. Age of viability in America and Britain is 24 completed weeks of gestation. Someone once mentioned that it is about 20 weeks in Australia(I'm not sure). Age of viability in Nigeria is 28 weeks. These premature babies stand a good chance of survival with proper neonatal care. As there are babies who 'make haste' to leave the womb - the premature ones I just talked about - so are there those who stay beyond their due date. The longer they remain in the womb, the higher the risks of placenta insufficiency (that effectively starves them of nutrients and oxygen), infections and demise. This risks get considerably high by 4 weeks post-date such that even the most optimistic obstetrician would induce labour or deliver the baby by Caesarian section. So, when a clown comes around to tell us she was pregnant for 25 months. We have every right to get angry for attempting to insult our sensibilities. Before even the 11th month, the foetus would have died, become macerated, and caused grave complications like overwhelming sepsis, diseminated intravascular coagulopathy etc in the mother. Without serious intervention, even the mother would be no more. Don't swallow all I have said cos I am no authority in this field. Verify with the aim of finding faults. I am a learner too. But certain things are stupid even to an apprentice.

otipoju: some six years ago, what you said would have made perfect sense. But now I know better. Some phenomena are inexcplicable and defy natural laws. This is africa where the phonomena that defy scientific logic do happen. I was writing a term paper in 300 level and had cause to go somewhere in Owenna in Ondo. State. I witnessed a corn seed planted in the morning and attain maturity by evening. Make we leave story abegm. Stay happy.

adconline:
Why is it that scientific logic does not apply to our "beliefs" and "delusions", yet we unknowingly embrace science everyday?
This is another Adeboye story driving on empty tank from Onitsha to Ore.

SELFWORTH:

Obviously an unbeliever or scientific analyser.

There are many events in the bible that does not follow any scientific logic but we believe them because we believe in God That is why God is God.

If you don't believe in something or you cannot prove something, that does not mean it never happened .

God is God whether you believe it or not . Keep testing all your scientific analysis to prove that God exists. When you arrive at your conclusion ,please do let us know.

coogar: the nigerian health system is a disgrace......
what were the doctors waiting for after 36 weeks was completed? giant of africa my foot!!! too many educated people in the country and yet no common sense. a woman was pregnant for 25 months and the doctors didnt think of splitting that belly apart and saving the baby after she's due? no wonder an official said half a million expectant mothers die in nigeria annually!

SELFWORTH: Anyone who claims to know it all on human biology is just deceiving himself. God will turn all your knowledge into foolishness when He performs miracles .
No one can understand the mystery of God. Unless you are VERY close to the story , you cannot say either way its true or false.
I say they have nothing to gain by lying publicly except encourage Gods wrath.
I am not God and neither is anyone commenting on here so avoid judging as if you are the creator and not the created.
The couple are happy. God is happy with His creation.
That's all that matters.

abitex577:

You maybe an expert in medicine but your knowledge in medicine is very limited. My sister had her baby over 24 months of pregnancy. These things that are written of are real and do happen. If you you have not seen doesn't mean they dont happen, what else can one say? I was in Benin City as a student when I came in contact first hand at mission road with a man who was brought out to the public to expose the evil he was perpertrating to the unborn child of his 8 months pregnant wife. While they are asleep every mid night, the man confessed taking the child in his wife womb to the coven of there meeting and while the wife noticed her flat tommy, she took to her heels and when he returned back in the morning and could find the wife he had to carry the 8 months pregnancy. What I'm I saying, there is alot of evil happening around and not documented. I pray heaven to open your eyes to the evil upon the face of the earth.

My problem with you be say you dey lie with impunity
