Graphic photos have shown the baby born with a gigantic tumor on its head, leaving medical personnel in shock in Ogoja, Cross Rivers state.
Local reports show that the baby, who was born in the middle of the night, had a tumour the size of a football and is almost twice the size of the baby’s head.
Louisa Ushie, the nurse who assisted in the delivery shared the story on Facebook, saying that she almost ran away when she saw the head of the baby coming out. Thankfully, both baby and mother are alive and doing fine.
Louisa Ushie wrote: “My night duty this time was an awful experience. #Thisisinfant2live.
