Dorcas called on organisations, kind-hearted individuals, and the public to come to her aid through Ghanaian social media personalities Twins Diaries.
Family's current state
When the Twins Diaries team visited the new mum and her triplets, they found them in a shabby structure, posing a threat to the mother and her babies. Patrick of Twins Diaries told Legit.ng that they want to get Dorcas and her babies a decent abode.
''They were sleeping on hard surfaces in a dusty room with no ventilation. We also saw that the mother appeared pale and unwell and required immediate medical attention.
''We've got some help, but we need more. We want to relocate the mum and her babies from the mudhouse to a better place,'' Patrick told Legit.ng.
