Dr Ibrahim Wada, the medical doctor that supervised the
process and her birth on February 11, 1998 at Nisa Premier Hospital, Abuja
during the occasion of an award of to Miss Kupchi said: “When I
was out of this country, I knew there were people who wanted babies. I made the
decision to come back to Nigeria to help people. It happened on February 11,
1998 when this historic event occurred in this hospital.”
Miss Kupchi who just secured admission to study medicine at a
Hungarian University remarked that she would strive at breaking all barriers
and become a medical doctor who would be cut out to help families who finds it
difficult to procreate through the traditional means.
She added that by the reason of her birth misconstrued perceptions
of IVF
were set right while stating that more children have been given birth to
using this procedure.
In her words: “I barely made it beyond the cut off mark.
God helped me. I am going to try my best and make everyone proud. I am studying
medicine because I want to be a doctor. I want to study it because I want God
to use me to help families who suffer what my parents went through.”
Her father stating their ordeal said, “We had 13 years of marriage without a child
and we went through the orthodox method without any success. But along the
line, my sister-in-law told me that there was one Dr Wada that had been helping
couples. That is how we came.”
