The Ekurede-Itsekiri community in Warri South Local Government Area of Delta State recently became a center of attraction following the birth of quintuplets, three boys and two girls.
The couple, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Agagbe, said they had waited for the arrival of their own children for many years before God blessed them with Michael, Miracle, Mercy, Mavis, and Marvellous.
Meanwhile, the divine gift has been attracting personalities, including the wife of the state Governor, Deaconess Tobore Oborevwori.
Deaconess Oborevwori, accompanied by her ‘You Matter Charity Foundation’ team, paid a surprise visit to the family of the quintuplets and presented a cash gift to the children.

Deaconess Oborevwori prayed for God to grant the family divine wisdom to raise the children and presented a symbolic key to a new shop to the mother of the quintuplets.
Some residents of Ekurede-Itsekiri expressed satisfaction with the governor’s wife’s visit, stating that the birth of the five children was the first of its kind in the community. They pledged to continue supporting the administration of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori.
