A routine pregnancy scan turned into a jaw-dropping question for Vivian, wife of popular actor and media personality Nkubi, after a doctor allegedly suggested she should have considered another man to conceive her child.
Speaking on Pulse One-on-One, Vivian recounted how the shocking exchange unfolded during her anomaly scan appointment.
She said, “When I did my anomaly scan and handed it to the doctor, he was like, ‘Does anyone have a trait of dwarfism in your family?’ Then I said, ‘Yes. It is my husband.’”
But what happened next left her stunned.
The doctor reportedly asked, “‘Why didn’t you go to your brother-in-law or even go outside to get pregnant instead of getting pregnant for your husband, or even get a sperm donor?’ And yes, that is what a doctor told me. They are not giving equal rights in this country at all.” She concluded.
The revelation has since set social meadia abuzz, with many condemning the alleged statement as deeply offensive and discriminatory.
For Vivian, the hospital visit was more than just a consultation; it became a painful reminder of the prejudice families like hers still face.
