Igboegwu stated that he had to turn deaf ears to some of the "advice" and wait on God.

“The ones with pure intentions expressed their love for us while encouraging us to keep going strong that God will bless us with a child. All these and so many others were the words from people’s mouth, you can imagine how I felt in all these while hearing all these from both people who feel my pain and those who mock me.

“I silently took it to God in prayer and today, my wife and I have reason to say thank you lord.”

“All I have to say is thank you, Lord. I have no prayer points anymore,” he added.
