“I Am AS Genotype, Fiancee Is Also AS”: Man Says They Fasted, Prayed for 1 Month & God Promised Them AA Kids
A young Nigerian man has shared how he and his fiancee who are both AS genotype decided to go ahead and marry.
The man revealed that their pastor advised them to pray and fast for one month, and they had the conviction God will give them AA children.
Many Nigerians who reacted to his post felt strongly against him going ahead with a union that could put their kids’ health at risk.
A Nigerian man with the Twitter handle @ucmchika has gone online to speak about how he and his fiancee are both AS.
His tweet was in response to a pharmacist’s post on the platform who spoke about the need for prospecting couples to do genotype, blood group, hepatitis B&C, fertility tests among others.
According to him, the only stumbling block in their path to getting marriage is their parents who would not approve of the union.

“On rare occasions couples with such genotype scales through. The probability of having an AA is high and also the probability of having an SS is high too.”

Truth is, you might have a child with the AA genotype but you might also have a child with the SS genotype. However, it’s a scary gamble that would be incredibly selfish to make. Sometimes we hear what we want. Please don’t do this to yourself, your partner and future children.

This is just like putting your hands in a fire and expecting it not to burn you. Don’t bring kids into this world to suffer please
