Answer: Hello Rafiu 

Without the knowledge of your wifes medical and obstetrics history it is hard to say why an operation  cesarean section has been advised However when it is advised by your doctor a CS is usually a safer option for the mother and the baby than a vaginal delivery My advise is that you speak to the doctor who can allay your fears by explaining the exact reasons for a CS 

Some indications for a planned CS include but are not limited to the following 
1 When your babybabies are in an abnormal position or if the mother carrying more than one baby a CS is often the safest way to deliver them without dangerous complications 
2 If theres a problem with the mothers placenta If the placenta is covering all or part of the opening of the mothers cervix a CS is highly recommended for delivery
3 In cases of prolapsed umbilical cord that is when a part of umbilical cord slips through your cervix before of your baby is another indication for a CS 
4 If the physical health of the mother is a concern conditions such as a heart or brain disorders might make the doctor request a CS
5 If theres a mechanical obstruction obstructing the birth canal or if your baby has a really large size or head 
6 A previous CS although not absolute is also an indication for a CS  

As you can see there are multiple reasons for a CS this is not all and a doctor has to ensure that all of these do not lead to dangerous outcomes for your wife or child during delivery 

Please note that any attempt to forcefully go against such advice of a doctor is dangerous and can lead to unfavourable outcomes such as rupture of the womb leading to its complete removal or death 

If still uncomfortable with the doctors request you can seek another opinion with a specialist obstetrician 

I wish you all the best with the delivery
