An 18 year old mother of triplets in Gulu District is stranded with children as their father disappeared.
Barbara Acayo has failed to trace the father of her premature babies after he allegedly switched off his known mobile phone upon giving birth 2 weeks ago at Gulu Regional Referral Hospital.
A 20-year-old man identified as David Odong, a resident of Lacoo anga, village Lukome Perish, Bungatira sub-county Gulu District is reported to have abandoned his 18 years old wife who gave birth to premature babies.
Barbara Acayo is now left helpless at Gulu Regional Referral hospital after giving birth to her premature triplets on 6th March 2021.
It's reported that Acayo suffered some malaria which is believed to have forced her to give birth to premature babies.
The premature triplets are currently being kept in an incubator at the neonatal unit at Gulu Regional Referral hospital until they gain some weights.
