Video: Conjoined twins unveiled at National Hospital Abuja after successful separation
The Federal Ministry of Health, on Tuesday, unveiled a set of conjoined twins after a successful operation separating them.
The twins, Goodness and Mercy and their parents, were presented to newsmen at the National Hospital, Abuja.
They were born at the Federal Medical Centre, Keffi, Nasarawa State on August 13, 2018, but were transferred to Abuja as a result of their condition.
Consequently, they were kept at the hospital for 16 months, after which the operation to separate them was carried out in November 2019.
Since then, they remained in the hospital where they were being monitored to ensure that they were stable.
Their parents were full of appreciation to the management of the hospital for saving the lives of their children.
Responding, father of the twins, Michael Edeh, expressed appreciation to the government, staff and management of National Hospital, as well as family and friends for the support that saved his girls.
