The conjoined twins were delivered at about 7 pm on July 2, 2013
at LUNA Hospital in Gwarinpa, Abuja. The babies are joined from the stomach and
chest down. They have three legs joined together, one liver, one kidney and one
intestine.”
Ironically, the scan that was conducted didn’t reveal that it
was conjoined twins.
The 32-year-old resident of the Federal Capital Territory,
Abuja, who is from Itu Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, and his
30-year-old wife, are currently at a loss.
He said, “The scan was done but we were not informed that it was
conjoined twins. When we were told that the babies were twins, we were all
happy. For now, my wife is still in the hospital, although not fully recovered.
But she is responding to treatment.”
