According to Chidiogo, she says she and her husband will become parents in August. Taking to her Instagram page, Chidiogo, shared a dark photo, which showed her baby bump. 

The couple got married two years ago in Agulu, Anambra State and at the scenic Bark Lake Leadership Centre in Canada. 

She wrote:

“In the coming week(s), in the month of August, motherhood takes on a powerful meaning for me as I’ll be birthing in more ways than one. For one, there is the birth of a child, for another, there is the birth of my mother’s story. Each has been incubated inside of me, held in love and deep trust.

⠀

“Both have been a most divine journey of listening, of introspection, of showing up through fear, through tears, through the ebbs and flows, saying yes to it all.

⠀

“Next week, I get to share at least one of the births with you — that of the book — a four-year journey of listening to and penning Dora’s Story in a book titled – ‘I Am Because We Are: An African Mother’s Fight for the Soul of a Nation’.

I cannot wait to share in and with you all that is to come.”
