so much joy to the family.
Around 7pm on the afromentioned date,
their joy turned sadness when they
discover that their babies are joined from
the stomach and chest down.
The twin babies have 3 legs joined together
with one intestine, a liver and a kidney.
The Conjoined twins have been transfered
to Abuja National Hospital from Luna
Hospital in Gwarinpa where they were
delivered.
Their mother is still in the hospital
recovering from Caesarean section.
According to their father, the Ultrasound
sound scan didn’t reveal any
abnormalities.
“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.” – Mr Bassey said
Only God knows the fate of these innocent
conjoined twins.
