A man whose wife is pregnant should have nothing less than N5M in his account - Nigerian doctor says

A Nigerian doctor, Ada Ujaligwa has advised
married men whose wives are pregnant, to have
at least N5m in preparation for the birth.

She also advised married women seeking to get
pregnant to have at least N1m.

"As a married woman who wants to get pregnant,
let there be at least 1M in your savings account
that you will not touch. As a married man whose
wife is pregnant, have nothing less than 5M in
your savings account in preparation for the birth,"

she wrote.


"How can you be so dependent on your husband
financially that if he refuses to pay for your
Caesarian section you will be stranded. How can you leave yourself at his mercy. From before you even get pregnant, hold the money for any kind of delivery gidigbam,"she added.

Madam, it's too early to begin pushing rubbish posts like this. Go and look for work to do and stop looking to hang yourself on one unfortunate man.

The 5M part no make sense but I don't understand why person go dey think of children when e no get shishi

Ok

Abeg, who dash this one Dr.?

Cos, I don't understand which part of her brain she is reasoning from.

Everything Money; Money... Na only Money dey her head. Na why some people even dey ask make NAFDAC open Fake drug market wen dem close.

So her Papa keep NGN2M for savings account before her Mama get her belle shey?

Well, some people don't know that though Money answers all things but Money is not Everything.

Good to have but if e no dey nkor, local man or woman no go born again, as the issues dey come them dey face one by one.

Those in villages nkor, how much dey there akant Cs amount for town nor be same for every where

What a very warped opinion!

Did your parents keep 5 Million Naira when you were about to be delivered? That means poor Village people and other less privileged should stop having babies.

Sigh!

Nonsense.

Lol

For this Tinubulation abi

So if I don't have N5m, I no fit give woman belle?

This is a new one.

Nairaland, don't you guys have anything reasonable to post anymore?

Arant nonsense

May God help us!

Minimum wage sef is 70k, 1yr Na less than 1.2m, so person on minimum wage no fit impregnate wife be dat.
The weyrey fit be polybag wife sef before the bright side of life shine on her and her husband

Okay

That means people collecting salary should not marry
Because 90%
Of them don’t have up to 5m in the bank

No be small Thing ooooo

Explanation is needed about the #5m please.

Will the baby start schooling right from the delivery room?

True. That's around 3,300USD,which isn't bad with the economic size of Nigeria. In the US, depending on hospital, you could spend a min of 10kUSD on birthing. Unfortunately, our leaders have mortgaged this country and those who are supposed to be stoning them for destroying their lives and denying them all these benefits are the ones fighting over them on the social media . After destroying Nigeria, they choose overseas hospitals for medical treatment. E no concern them, if you live or not.

You don't even have to spend all the 5m. Insurance should take a chunk of it off your finances and if unemployment, the government should been able to assist in a way. May Pa Jakande's soul continue to RIP.i wish he was allowed to do 8 years. Lagos today would have been the eye of Africa on robust and affordable Healthcare with his programme. There's nothing in our hospotals today despite the huge revenues being generated. Private hospitals that used to evy our general hispptals have all taken over in Lagos. These are the places where you can find modern equipment and enjoy proper care but they're super expensive. The suffering masses can't afford it.

Hmmm.. True though, especially if na CS your wife use deliver and na private hospital.

Hmmm. E no easy.
