Dubai crown prince, Hamdan bin Mohammed has paid the hospital bill of a Nigerian family that was stranded in the country.
It was reported earlier thatย Tijani and Suliyah Abdulkareem who welcomed their quadruplets at the Latifa Hospital for Women and Children on July 1,ย had no medical insurance and were indebted to the tune of $120,000.
They incurred the medical bill after their babies (two boys and two girls) were placed on ventilators at the neonatal intensive care unit after being born prematurely.
Expressing gratitude to Hamdan bin Mohammed for coming to their aid,ย Abdulkareem said two of the children will be named after him while one of the girls will be named after the hospital.
โItโs just a huge favour, and we are still in shock because we didnโt even know how to get the money. I had been sleepless wondering how to pay the bill.”
The 32-year-old chef also thanked the Nigerian community and everyone who assisted his family pay for two months rent for a bigger place to accommodate the quadruplets.
