Text by Patrick Akpese.

"Many myths were told to unravel the believe surrounding the existence of creatures like this in some parts of our world; Africa. I was told once I desire to know: they are spirits, to some they're abomination.
In the world today they are just one of the many gifts of nature.
Twins are not abomination neither are they objects for sacrifice as the it was case in the days of our ancestors.
In our world today many wish they could have twins in their homes. Their fortunes cannot be undermined.

They are humans like anyone else, they're not children of a lesser god. As beautiful as the fruit, so are they the fruit of a beautiful womb."
