A pregnant woman was on Sunday safely delivered of a baby boy while on a United Airlines flight (UA 977) from Ghana to the US.
The good news was shared via instagram by Ghanaian Broadcaster, Nancy Adobea Anane, who was on board the airplane. She said that a Ghanaian doctor, Dr Ansah-Addo helped to deliver the baby.
"The baby who was due late February decided to arrive 34,000 ft above sea level.
"Dr. Ansah-Addo a Ghanaian practicing in the USA made himself available when the pilot called for assistance of medical personnel on board. With assistance from the whole United crew, a bouncy baby boy was delivered 2 hours to landing.
"The flight was met on arrival by paramedics upon landing at the Washington Dulles international airport. The baby and his mother GG are currently under medical care.", Nancy said.
The nature of this new arrival has however sparked up reactions from social media users. While some are congratulating the mother for a safe delivery, others are concerned about what nationality would the child bear. Here is a screenshot of some of their comments.
