A shocking revelation has emerged from social media that has left many in disbelief. A Nigerian woman, who recently gave birth abroad, found herself in a perplexing situation when she learned that her father and mother-in-law, both invited to assist with traditional postnatal care known as omugwo, have entered into a romantic relationship.

The post described the situation, stating, “Her father came to do omugwo because her mother is late, and the husband arranged a visa for his own mother too. Everything was fine at first. But after two months, they began an affair and kept it a secret.”
