A medical doctor has elicited reactions over her post about the loss of parents and how it affects their young kids.
Ada Ujaligwa, a married mother-of-five, wrote on Facebook: “Let no children lose any parent before they reach successful adulthood but if one parent must kpai (d!e) when the child is still small, let it be the father and not the mother. Mothers ensure children are well taken care of way more than fathers.”
Her post angered many, as they pointed out that she has grown sons who are medical doctors and they asked her if she would be OK with her sons dy!ng.
She has now deleted the offensive post.
In a follow-up post, she wrote: “Children who lose their fathers early but their mothers stayed alive to raise them often fare far better in life than children who lose their mothers early but their father stayed alive to raise them. Most fathers are unable to raise children alone.”
She added: “God pls keep every parent alive and well for their children Amen. A father is super important and a mother is super important. But can you tell me why, children who lost their mothers early suffer in this life way more than children who lost their fathers early?”
