Cynthia, the wife of Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, the Big Brother Naija reality show host has revealed she wants a boy as her third child.
Recall that Cynthia and Ebuka got married in February 2016, and the union has been blessed with two girls, Jeweluchi and Irubinachi.
Speaking in an interview on Mum’s Next Door podcast, Cynthia Obi-Uchendu expressed her desire to have a male child.
When asked if she still wants to have another baby, she said;
“Yes, I definitely want one more child. I have 2 girls now so my prayers will be to have a boy.”
Responding to the host who asked if Ebuka also wants another child, she replied:
“It is my decision. Not Ebuka’s decision.
“My husband actually wanted just one child because he wants to be able to give the child the best.
“He said school fees, everything is so expensive so one is fine. But now, he is obsessed with our children and I’m sure if we have the third he will equally be obsessed.”
