Woman delivers co-joined twins in Enugu

 

 

A couple based in Enugu state Nigeria have have been delivered of a set of co joined twin girls.

Speaking with SUNDAY PUNCH on Saturday, the parents of the girls, Miracle and Testimony, expressed optimism despite the condition of their twin daughters born on November 16, 2015, who are joined at the groin.
The father, Segun, 35, explained how, despite his initial reaction of trauma, his faith gave him the courage to pull through.
He said, “Naturally, you would be a little bit traumatised. That is natural. But in everything, when you know the word of God, it will strengthen you more, because it is part of life. There is nothing one can do about it. It has happened.

“When I first heard it was going to be twins, I was happy. But later they said they were joined in some way and I asked, ‘Conjoined how?’
“I thought it was the kind of thing whereby they would be separated immediately. But I later discovered that if they should try to operate immediately, we would lose the two (girls).”
Interestingly, the children are very healthy. According to their father, they are in perfect condition.
