Rose Mbetse-Lubisi, 31, from Ireagh in Bushbuckridge, successfully delivered triplets at the Matikwana Hospital.

At birth the babies, two boys and a girl, weighed 1, 3; 1,6 and 1,7kg, respectively.

Mpumalanga health department spokesperson Mpho Gabashane said the children were doing well on their own, feeding well and not in incubators.

But their unemployed mother, who has no formal professional qualifications, said she needed help to bring the tiny tots up.

She said the father of the babies was also unemployed but occasionally worked as a enumerator on a short-term basis.

"I would like to appeal to Good Samaritans out there to assist. Anything that will bring a smile to their faces will be appreciated," she said.

The couple was previously blessed with twins, both girls, who are now 6 years old.

"We stay in a two bedroom house with some basic facilities. There is no running water or other amenities," Mbetse-Lubisi says.

Health and social development MEC Dikeledi Mahlangu yesterday congratulated the family with the newborn babies. She also praised the health team that delivered the babies.

Pls remember that she didnt plan to have twins or triplets, if it was not for twins she wud hv had only 2 kids, so the family was blessed with multiple semens and its not her fault, God blessed her and those kids were brought to the world for a reason, i know that one day they will be doctors , nurses and maybe engineeres if they dont let porverty describe them, Gud luck Mama and God bless u more.
