A gentleman in Ghana simply identified as Godfred from Dansoman has recounted an emotional experience he had with his wife after the birth of 'his daughter'.
Calling into a program on Joy 99.7 FM, Godfred said when the woman was pregnant, he made a lot of sacrifices to be there for both her and the unborn baby.
"I took her [my wife] to the labour ward, she even delivered into my hands, I named the child and everything," he narrated on the show."
