Ms Cisse’s pregnancy became a subject of fascination in Mali – even when it was thought she was only carrying septuplets, Reuters news agency reports.
After a two-week stay in a hospital in Mali’s capital, Bamako, the decision was made to move Ms Cisse to Morocco on 30 March, Dr Siby said.
After five weeks at the Moroccan clinic, on Tuesday, the minister said.
