His wife had given birth to a newborn baby, and they were in church for the thanksgiving/dedication. While dancing to the altar (as is customary in most Nigerian churches), he held the newborn and danced with much energy. He started gently before entering the 'zone' and began dancing with all his might and energy, using the baby as a dancing prop.

This seemed dangerous for the baby as he seemed to have forgotten himself momentarily in his happy moment. Luckily, some attentive women rushed at him to caution him and take away the baby as it could be detrimental to the child.
