A Nigerian lady shared a touching story on social media about a very pregnant lady who unexpectedly gave birth on the streets of Oshodi.
In her post on X (formerly Twitter), she described how the woman, not realizing it was time, suddenly couldn’t move.
Nearby women quickly came together, using their wrappers to create a protective circle and help the woman deliver her baby.
After the baby arrived, a vendor from a large store nearby offered her assistance.
She took the new mother into her shop so the father could collect important things for their baby.
The poster expressed her emotions: “You guys, a woman gave birth in Oshodi. She didn’t know it was time. She said she couldn’t move anymore, and women rallied around to create a circle and delivered the baby. The shouting and jubilation were overwhelming. My heart was so full.”
She continued, “They immediately dressed her in new clothes, and the woman who owns a big baby store carried her inside so the father could get what the child needed. Other women followed them. It was so awesome.”
As this moving story went viral online, many people rushed to the comments to express their feelings and opinions.

@thefionalee_MD: “This is so beautiful to read. When my mother gave birth to the last child I went to market to buy food stuff and all the women were asking about her cos we’re regular customers. At each stall I went to, once I told them she had given birth, whatever I bought, they would package.”
@Rufaimonsurahj: “This has been the womanhood culture for a long time. I once witnessed the sight of something like this too and till date my heart blooms in pride and joy. I’d be so jealous if I wasn’t female.”
