A Lecturer, Mrs Uzodike Ngozi in the Department of Business Administration, Nnamdi Azikiwe University( UNIZIK) Awka Anambra State, has been delivered of a set of seven twins (Septuplets), Two boys and Five girls on Sunday, 8 January, 2023.
Mrs Uzodike who was delivered of the septuplets at Obijackson Women and Children Hospital Okija was full of tears both that of joy and sorrow as she complained of having not been paid salary since she was employed in the Department of Business Administration of UNIZIK in December 2020.
According to the husband, Mr Celestine Uzodike an indigene of Omogho, Orumba North, LGA Anambra State, a junior aide to the Governor of Anambra State, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, he complained that his wife despite being properly engaged as a Lecturer has never earned a kobo as salary, regretting that even after she has been promoted from Assistant Lecturer to Lecturer II, they haven't found it fit to pay her salaries.
The family who was billed 19 Million Naira by the Hospital appealed to the federal government to pay the two years salary arrears owed to the new mother, and to also come to their aid.
Mrs Uzodike, who was very weak to speak after the delivery, said "all I want is for philanthropists both in Anambra State and Nigeria at large to come to our aide in other to offset the 19 million Naira hospital bill."
