It is a season of rejoicing in the home of Nollywood actor Browny Igboegwu and his wife as they finally welcomed a beautiful baby girl after 10 years of marriage.
The actor took to his official Instagram page to share the good news with lovely photos of when his wife was still pregnant.
According to him, it was God who did it and not the work of man.

“This took 10 years to come who can battle with the Lord, I say nobody,” he said.
Narrating his experience as a man who had to wait on God and stand by his wife during their challenging period, Browny said that he got all manner of advice.
The film star said he was advised to get another wife as age was no longer on his wife’s side. He was also advised to get another woman pregnant, asking how long he would wait for.
“Get another wife time no dey, age is no longer on her side, find a girl and give belle at least time no dey, Browny hmm you dey try for how long you go wait, oya adopt baby first as you dey wait, all these Asaba girls who knows what she has done that she can’t conceive,” he said.
He said that he was even taunted with his situation that when he acquires a new thing, people look past it to ask him for his child.
“Is it by buying new car? Let him born, you no go understand because you never born. Don’t worry when you born you will understand. I love this couple you will never know they don’t have a child, God help them even if it’s one. Your children must be up to four now it’s been long you got married.”
Actor Browny said that people mocked his pain but he always took it to God in prayers and he gave him a reason to return praises to him.
