Nigerian Woman Who Gave Birth At 36,000ft Aboard British Airways Plane
A plane flying from Nigeria to London had to make an emergency landing on a Spanish island when a woman gave birth in business class.
Ujunwa Eneh Ozeh, who turned 31 today, went into labour at 36,000 feet while flying from her home town of Abuja, Nigeria's capital, to London Heathrow, despite only being 26 weeks pregnant.
The pilot of the British Airways flight was forced to make an emergency landing in Palme de Mallorce, in the Balearic Islands, where the mother and baby, who has been called Michael, were rushed to the island's Son Espases hospital.
While Mrs Ozeh will be discharged on Monday, Michael is currently in the intensive care unit and will remain in hospital until August, around his original due date, so he can develop properly.
Mrs Ozeh said: 'I don't have any other option than to stay here on the island. My baby needs me to just hang in there for him until it is safe for him to come home with me.'
The mother-of-two was travelling with her one-year-old daughter Nnedinma and was planning to catch a connecting flight from London to Washington, USA, where she was taking the little girl for vacation.
Nnedinma was born in the United States but Mrs Ozeh is insistent she was not retuning the country to have Micheal.
She said: 'I was going for the summer, Michael was not due until August, there is no way I would be able to stay in the United States until August. I had a return ticket to Nigeria booked for May 28, so I intended to stay for a few weeks and then go home.'
When her water broke, fellow passengers alerted the cabin crew who put out a call for doctors over the intercom. A female doctor, currently unidentified, was on board and able to oversee the birth with the help of flight crew, who are trained in birthing procedures
Under BA regulations, pregnant women can fly on their planes until the end of their 36th week, or 32nd week if carrying more than one baby.
Once the emergency was dealt with, the plane continued on to the UK, arriving only thirty minutes late.
A spokesman for British Airways said: 'Our cabin crew, who are trained in birthing procedures, assisted with the delivery of a baby on board our flight from Abuja.
'The Captain diverted the aircraft to Palma so that mum and baby could be taken to hospital.
'We are in touch and will continue to provide any support and help we can.
'We wish the mother and her little one all the very best.'

Kerry: U.S. will help in search for Nigerian girls kidnapped by militants last month
Secretary of State John F. Kerry in Addis Ababa pledged U.S. help Saturday in finding and returning hundreds of Nigerian girls abducted by militants more than two weeks ago.
“The kidnapping of hundreds of children by Boko Haram is an unconscionable crime,” Kerry said. “We will do everything possible to support the Nigerian government to return these young women to their homes and hold the perpetrators to justice.”
Nigerian authorities said more than 250 girls are still missing after the mass abduction of teenagers from schools on April 14.
Villagers and relatives of some of the abductees said some girls had been sold into forced marriages with their kidnappers, thought to be members of the militant Islamic movement known as Boko Haram.
“We are working to strengthen Nigeria’s institutions and its military to combat Boko Haram’s campaign of terror and violence,” Kerry said during a speech on U.S. policy and objectives in Africa.
“I’ve seen this scourge of terror across the planet, and so have you,” Kerry said. “They don’t offer anything,” he said of movements such as Boko Haram. “They just tell people, ‘You have to behave the way we tell you to.’ Our responsibility, and the world’s responsibility, is to stand up to that kind of nihilism.”
Kerry did not specify what kind of help the United States could provide, but the abductions gave new urgency to efforts to boost the Nigerian government’s ability to counter the rebels.
A senior State Department official traveling with Kerry said later that Kerry was referring to security, communications and intelligence help for the overall fight against Boko Haram. The United States is not yet directly involved in the search for the missing girls, the official said.
“We don’t see this as just being a security problem,” said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the evolving strategy. “There are broader issues here that . . . relate to how the government works with people in these communities.”
A team of U.S. officials from several agencies will travel to Nigeria in the coming week for consultations, the official said.

Genevieve Nnaji Clocks 35 / Pleads for Rescue of Missing Schoolgirls #bringbackourgirls
Nollywood actress, Genevieve Nnaji turns 35 today May 3. The Actress rather than celebrating herself, is still grieving over the missing school girls who were kidnapped from Borno state. The Actress aspeaks on the issue of the missing girls in her birthday message.
Message below:
“I’ve always been of the belief that less words and more action speaks greater volumes. But in this case of no foreseen action, I believe some talking is in order. The abduction of these young girls goes against everything that we as Africans fought for, for so many years. What we as Nigerians have been faced with and have been fighting over these past years.

“Not to mention what we women and mothers still fight against till this very day. Kidnapping, abduction, slavery, child bride and the complete disrespect and disregard for human life and rights is ..in my opinion, every wrong that seems to be getting away here. Reports say that our babies are being shipped off to neighboring countries, distributed and married off.
“How could this be when we have appointed men to protect us? Why are we called giants if we can’t trample over ants? Enough of these setbacks!! There are way too many distractions for this Nation to achieve its true potential. It is time to respond and to act!!
