And it wasn’t only baby Jonah’s parents who were stunned, so were the midwives. Continue
“The midwife looked at me and looked back down at Jonah and then at me again and couldn’t believe it. The doctors confirmed it was extremely rare."Catherine.Her husband Richard Howarth, 34, was equally astonished.
“When I first set eyes on my baby boy Jonah, it was a feeling of pure delight and relief that he was healthy and strong. His complexion was very pale due to the umbilical cord being wrapped around his neck when he was being delivered.
“After a few hours his colour came to his cheeks. Catherine and I noticed his complexion was very similar to mine and were surprised it was as light. The midwives and doctors told us he’ll most likely remain this colour.”Doctors have said Jonah is not an albino.
“We have been told that I must have been carrying a recessive gene. My parents were from Nigeria and, for as far back as anyone can remember, my family have all been black. But at some point there must have been a white gene in my family that has remained dormant for years and years – until now. The doctors said they had researched the chances of this happening and discovered that it was very, very rare. They had only found two similar cases, both in America, that had been reported in recent times.” Catherine saidCatherine and Richard say they plan to have more children but have been told the chances of them also being born white are highly unlikely.

Wow! The father's gene is very strong. Stronger than a Nigerian hair.lol
~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA LUMIA
Is not the first time will have similar case sometimes ago in Germany,,,,,,,, undisputed God
i also pray to have such.but not that white.
That's a good one,dorminant gene
there was a case of a completely white couples giving birth to a black baby and it was theirs! no cheating, no nothing!! he was theirs. A curious case of Uncle Rukus's revitiligo
Cnt stop staring @ d baby. He's so cute!
the child actually looks like his mum,its just his skin.
Strong gene the husband has got. I was thinking she was married to a black man when I first saw the headline. U would have had some explainations to do Madam. Congrats
happy for dem. wat a cute baby♥
Thank God u husband is white, else....hmm.
it makes no sense d man is white and so the baby.
Wow that's incredible !!!
O di ok.
I'm out. ***CATCH ME IF U CAN***
what a cut baby and he looks like the mum, pls farther give us our own
the baby is so cute
Cute boy!!! Y'all should focus on training the boy rather than trying to make him a Guiness star... There was an issue of a parent dt gave birth to twins- one was black while the other was white.... Now that is wht I call "bizarre".#cheEzyjayne
... Hmm, interesting. Anyways congrats to the mother. Hmm perhaps more behind the scene..
Aweosome.........
This would have been more thrilling if both parent were black...abegi! *eyes rolling*
D baby looks like his mum
OK!!
#Fizz
I cn c d black blood in d boy joor
Yeah...It's the only logical explanation. The lady is carrying a recessive gene for her child's complexion. All the same,congratulations to her and her family...
Hmmmm...Strange!
I've seen several mixed race kids lookin mooooree black than dia white dad's or mom. How cum dat isn't rare?? Abeggy
Cute boy.
Why are they so surprised ? Her husband is white so it is normal, he will still change because he is biracial, i say so because my kids were born like that too.
See how happy and overwhelmed they look. If na oyibo born blackly, na dustbin him for end. WHITE POWER! Lol ~BADOO OF COVENTRY
GOD IS GREAT. MAY HE BLESS U AND UR BEAUTIFUL FAMILY.
Wetin una dey make noise for? Is the baby's father not a white man? If him no resemble him papa, na me him for resemble?! Mtschew.
Dis tin no be news na. Why are they astonished, when the baby's father is white.
Take a good look at the husband. Clearly he is an Albino. Yes, Oyibo people also have Albinos and that's why the father's Genotype is dominant in the baby. Looking at the big picture, if one goes back to Shem, Ham and Japeth, maybe this is how God brought about the variations in looks and Peoples of different Colours. I said Peoples and don't correct me, aight. God is Mysterious and whoever questions him is cursed. Anyway, back to the topic. Let's hope the other children they have who might not be as "White" go to school and learn how genetics and variation work. It would be painful if they don't and start wondering if their different looking sibling is not really their full sibling. The wonders of the world. God bless the child and all of your children Libers!
Well,scientifically its possible for a black woman to have a completely white baby if eggs and sperm from caucasian donors are implanted in her.(surrogacy).Could have been the case here but might not be willing to say it publicly.You never know.
My son was also mixed, but he has my big Nigerian nose and brownish skin; everyone were surprised cause of his nose. They thought he will have the mom long nose. So I think it's all about how strong your genes are.
BUT THE MAN NA WHITE NA... SO NO BE NEW THING JARE
woww. One of a kind.
Cute baby.

Awww such a cute baby, i want to av a baby tooo so adorable.
Why name a child Jonah? Jonah olorun iya!
The baby's black genes are apparent to me.
I have seen a case like this, as long as the father is a full white, the baby can also be a complete white. It really doesn't matter. I have seen a mutual friend whose mother is an igbo woman, while the father is a German, and this lady i am talking about is a full blooded white lady. So it really doesn't matter
Pls is the father not white how is dat a story biko
At first I thought the husband was black until I saw his pic.there dis black couple that gave birth to a white baby
Face of lib
All these ibo and riverside people that were fucking slave masters and giving birth to bastard kids for their husbands. Later they will come and give us story that ibos are naturally light skinned. But historical pictures show them black like night.lmao.

Gbam I agree with u bro.
That's strange.
OFCOURSE... THE BABY'S FATHER IS WHITE, SO ALSO THE BABY...
IS NOT A SURPRISING OCCURRENCE... WHERE IT IS, IS WHEN THE FATHER IS BLACK AND THE MOTHER IS BLACK
Maybe na dem African Americant Combo. Na dem b d ones wey dey birth pikin wey black pass them black parent, maybe due to too much mixture of blood. Im good gan be cos dem wan establish dem own race. Imagine
He is so cute!..he looks like the mum.
Kindly visit my health blog on www.yemmybarge.blogspot.com.
yes ooo, i love this
The baby has been ruled out as being an Albino so maybe a dormant gene came rearing its head. Doesn't really matter. The baby is healthy.
Thank you ojare. With all this invitro going on some women can now know that colour doesn't matter when it comes to choosing a surrogate, just the genetic combo of the egg and spermatozoa. Are you in the Medical field? Let's hookup, lol
Well, thank God he has the Nigerian nose! He will wake up everyday and smell the reality of life. Make sure he becomes a Dr. Preferably a Gynaecologist. This is his future. You hera
What's causing the surprise? The father is white na.
Mumu+Mumu.:: Dummy. Didn't you read the story well ?
Wait oo, I still don't get.. but the father is white na! What was she expecting before, a dudu osun??? Hian! The matter tire me ooo. Btw the baby is cute.
That child has black nose and mouth and with time his color will change and the hair will be afro.
Cute baby with negroid features of thick lips and flat nose. New species of Homo sapiens on the block?
What the hell are they saying,..it has always been the male gene dominant on female...the baby could've been mixed if d moma was white n pops black..I have friends with white dad...they completely white
Ur gappy u gave him pinnochios nose? Chei! M just kidding sir

To me its not surprising @ all, buh d baby is cute sha
I hv always wanted to read that German story again but ...... The r not telling us any thing about them again
It is new, the problem is that most of you don't know the different between, white, albino and half-cast, folks like you will call the likes of osase, beyonce, rihannah,nelly, kim et cetera. white man..this is Uk.. Irish used to be pure white, america red, china,japan,korea,orange, buh now things have mixed up..even most UK folks don't born pure white any longer, due to mixture of gene..so my dear LIB reader it is rare and new...thank me lerraaa
Son of Solomon
Look at Mariah Carey. Her father is black, would anyone know?
CUTE PRECIOUS BABY
Lol!!!
DO A DNA TO TELL IF THERE IS CONFUSION SHIKENA
Abeg she was right, dominant gene(just a mistake with the r). You my dear, got it wrong.
Yea, d baby is cute. It may be d incredible one in a million as d doctor said. As far as i'm concerned, d Dad is white and so is d baby. Case closed.
this shit ain common. some juju or voodoo jinx may be involved albeit d lad sure gat the moms cheeks n eyes must say
....The boy was played a tape of what's happening in all the continents of the world, then asked to choose a complexion before coming to planet earth.
