Indeed, God came through, HE did not fail and answered their\nprayers, with their fates unshaken after waiting unto the Lord for\nthe fruit of the womb for 22 years. God did not not just give them\none baby, but three same time-two handsome boys and a beautiful girl\nto wipe away their tears. <\/strong>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The\nbeautiful children were born in a renowned hospital in Maryland,\nUnited States on January 18, 2019 but Ayefele had pleaded for\nconfidentiality by Nigerians he met in the hospital and close family\nfriends to keep the issue secretive as he would not want any harm to\ncome near the &#8216;gifted children&#8217; given by God. <\/strong>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Elated\nAyefele reportedly said recently, \u201cMy babies were actually\nborn on January 18, 2019.

I was so scared\ninitially for their lives, I didn\u2019t want anything to happen to them\nhealth-wise but I thank God that everything is perfect now, they are\ndoing very fine. <\/strong>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<strong>It\u2019s\na thing of joy and I have never experienced it before. I never\nexpected it too because when one is looking for the fruit of the\nwomb, one may get one or at least two but not three. The first time I\nheard that my wife was pregnant, I was very excited. From the moment\nwe confirmed she was pregnant, I couldn\u2019t describe my joy.

If I\u2019m carrying one, the second would also want me to\ncarry him or her. That\u2019s the most difficult part of it\u2013 carrying\nthe three of them at the same time.
