Famous Nigerian actor, Kunle Remi and his wife, Tiwi, have welcomed their first child after medical challenges.

Announcing the news in post on the actor's Instagram page, the couple revealed the baby's name and gender.

Speaking about their experiences, Kunle Remi said they are sharing their journey to encourage someone out there.

“From unexpected and unsettling medical discovery to complete bed rest. From juggling demanding work schedules to hopping on flights, both locally and internationally.

“From an early arrival to the unfolding of God’s perfect timing. From waiting, countless NICU visits, and clinging to God for 11 weeks and 3 days (that is 80 days of faith).

“Our story is living proof that God is God, unfailing, unwavering, and faithful till the very end. We have been blessed with a WONDER. We have been blessed with EEMI OLUWA (the BREATH OF GOD).”
