The Kogi Central PDP senatorial candidate in the last general election, Barr. Natasha H Akpoti-Uduaghan and her husband, Chief Emmanuel Oritsejolomi Uduaghan on Sunday dedicated their son, Prince Reign Emmanuel.
While sharing her traumatic experience during the child’s delivery, Mrs. Uduaghan who appreciated God for saving her life said she was given six pints of blood and thought she was going to die and recalled how she told her husband to take care of their son if she didn’t make it from the theatre.
She said, “About two months ago, I survived a ghastly motor accident, I had a fractured and some stitches on my face, but today we are gathered to celebrate the dedication of our son, Prince Reign Emmanuel Toritsemotse Otuoze Uduaghan who turns one next week Wednesday.
