5 Nigerian Identical Twin to Twin Marriages
Giving birth to twins is a thing of joy.
When they are identical twins the joy becomes double. But when those twins get
married to identical twins it becomes a rare phenomenon worthy of documenting. In this story, we bring you five of such phenomenon and one more in the making.
Recently
pictures and videos of identical twin brothers set to wed identical twin
sisters in Kano flooded the internet. While waiting to add this per to the list
of identical twin marriages seen so far in Nigeria, we bring you five other
identical twin to twin marriages that have made headlines in Nigeria.
Taiwo and Kehinde Oluwafunso and their wives
Perhaps the first of the phenomenon in
Nigeria would be the marriage between twin brothers, Taiwo and Kehinde Oluwafunso to their wives
Taiwo and Kehinde Oyawoye.
That marriage took place the same day at Immanuel
Baptist Church in Ilorin, Kwara state, and a twin reverend preached on their
wedding day, while on the bridal train were identical twins. Interestingly many
twins attended the event.
The Oluwafunso twins who hails from Ibadan, Oyo State, runs
the Twin Action-Aid, an NGO specifically set up to see to the welfare of twins
and they are also front liners of the national twin festival in Nigeria.
They met their wives during the annual twins’
festival and their wives were among participants from Kwara State. Interestingly, one of the male twins - Kehinde
actually saw them in his dream prior to their meeting day. He would later meet
them in reality after which they prayed over it and God confirmed the ladies as their
wives. According to Oluwafunso twins, the first day they visited the girls at their home,
they saw the girls wearing the same attire they wore in that dream.
Speaking further, they said opting for twin sisters
was a divine direction as their previous relationship was leading them apart.
The Oluwafunso brothers were born in Mushin on November, 1966. They attended Mushin Primary School and later went to Oduabore Primary School in Mushin and proceeded to Oyo State for their post-primary school. They separated for the first time when one attended the Lagos State College of Education, Ijanikin and the other went to The Polytechnic, Ibadan. But they would later come together as students at the Lagos State University.
They say their resemblance has always been a
blessing to them, adding that at times, 'we play pranks to save ourselves from
embarrassing situations or to confuse people. We deliberately played pranks
while growing up at times on our parents to escape punishment and mostly in
school. We played pranks too on girls."
On the part of their wives, they are so identical that
even their father can’t tell them apart. Both ladies work as accountants but
while one is in the office of the Lagos State Auditor General, the other works
with the Treasury Office of the Lagos State Government. Unlike their husbands, they are not
obsessive about dressing in the same attire.
As wives, the only challenge they claim to face is
the fact that individually they want their husbands to be more personal with
them, but the brothers would rather give that attention to themselves.
Another thing is, though the sisters would have
wanted to give birth to twins, but the duo says, "it’s too late to wish for that
since we are okay with the two kids each God has given us."
Okueze Twins brothers and their wives |
A more current twins
wedding which stood out in Nigeria would be that of the Okuniyi twins sisters
who married the Okueze twins brothers. Their wedding was adjudged the 251st
in the world by the officials of the Guinness Book of World Records.
The twin sisters - Folawemi Taiwo and Febisola Kehinde Okunniyi, walked down
the aisle with their husbands Chibuzor Adelakin and Chinonso Akinade Okueze on
the same day, Saturday, November 30th, 2013 at the Four-square Gospel Church,
Omole, Ikeja District Headquarters in Lagos.
While the Okuniyi
sisters are from Ondo state, the Okueze twins hail from Asaba in Delta State. Ayansola twins and their wives
Another outstanding identical twin wedding
is the wedding of twin brothers Caleb Kehinde and Joshua Tayeolu Ayansola to
twin sisters, Taiwo Eunice and Kehinde Bernice Elejofi. Interestingly, the twin
grooms also had a set of identical twin brothers Elijah and Enoch Olatunji, who
accompanied them as best men.
The
Ayansola brothers are from Modakeke in Osun State. They attended the same
primary and secondary schools and studied the same course – Physical Health
Education – for their first degree at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife and
both graduated in 2014 with First Class. The duo also got Commonwealth
scholarship for their Master’s degrees in the United Kingdom and together eyes
a career in gospel music.
They would be separated for the
first time when they went for their national youth service. One would be posted
to Katsina State, while the other landed in Anambra State.
The brothers said the union started with a
birthday message sent to one of the brothers by one of the twin sisters. Soon they got talking, and a relationship
followed.
According to the brothers, they
had always wanted to marry twin sisters as that would be the only way to
sustain their closeness as brothers. However, the search was not easy. They met
several twin sisters and were even in relationships with two set of twins which
hit the rocks.
But this setback didn’t
discourage them, rather, they prayed and fasted for 120 days for Gods
intervention. That divine intervention would come from an online chance meeting
on facebook which later resulted to a proposition by the two brothers to the
sisters and subsequently marriage.
The ladies, Taiwo Eunice and
Kehinde Bernice Elejofi, who studied Biology Education at the University of
Lagos, said they had no previous relationships before meeting the Ayansola
brothers. They added that they turned down several suitors earlier because they
felt no connections with them. But when the Ayansola twins paid them a visit in
school, they felt like kindred spirits and three days later, things began to
happen for them seamlessly. Interestingly their parents also gave their consent
and blessings.
Their parents said they expected
this to happen right from their birth adding that “While they were growing up,
we were told that the girls would be unique and different from others. All this
we kept to ourselves and as they grew older, we began to see some of these
things.
The couples are audaciously hoping to give
birth to sets of twin boys.
Sa’ad and Sa’eed Yusuf |
Yusuf twins and their wives |
Though born and raised in Jos the Yusuf twins
who are from Jigawa State commenced their education at different Islamic
schools, but would also attend the Islamic College in Jos, Plateau State,
Government College in Birnin Kudu, Jigawa State, School of Health Sciences and
Technology in Jahun, Jigawa State where they bagged a Diploma in Medical
Laboratory Technology and the Maryam Abacha American University of Niger for a
degree in Medical Laboratory Science. They later proceeded to the Federal
School of Medical Laboratory Technology in Jos for additional training. They practice
as medical laboratory scientists.
According to them, their childhood was smooth and
fun. They never used their identical look
to play any pranks on anyone.
Growing up they desired to marry twins but they even
had non – twin girlfriends let alone getting married to twins, but God made it
possible through a man called Mallam Zakariya who linked them to their twin
wives in January 2014. By August of that year, they were married and the event
happened the same day for both twins.
For the twin sisters, they also share similarities,
like schooling together at the Government Girls Secondary School, Ragogo,
Katsina State and the Yusuf Bala Usman College of Legal and General Studies,
Daura, where they studied Hausa-Islamic and graduated in 2014.
They also claimed that they are extremely happy,
proud and feel lucky to have married twins like themselves.
Usangnwan twins and their wives |
While Abigail Attah got married to her man, Itakke
Usangnwan her sister, Helen Obiofia wedded Enyieokpon Usangnwan.

School of Business, is 7 feet tall and has since become a celebrity on campus
and beyond after his photos went viral on social media. Ebenezer Mensah

on social media to him was a photo of him with his headmaster and his
assistant.
While Ghanaian musician Patapaa praised Swedru for
giving birth to the tallest man in Ghana and prayed that he is coached to be
one of the best basketball players in the world, popular sports personality,
Saddick Adams has also revealed he has received calls from three world class
football coaches who are willing to sponsor the young man abroad and to teach
him basketball all for free.
In 2018 when the lad clocked 16, Ghana’s
telecommunications giant, MTN, donated a special bed and a mono desk to him.
They made the donation following a publication by Ghana’s
leading newspaper Daily Graphic on the difficulties; Ebenezer Mensah goes
through in accessing his bed and desk.
Talking about similar difficulties he encounters at
home, Mensah said due to his height he always had to bend down before entering
their house and rooms, adding that “I can't sleep on my own bed at home because
it is too short for me, I always have to bend my legs while sleeping on the bed
or rest on the upper frame up on the bed while my legs hang off the bed”.
He is the only child of his parents and lives with
his mother at Ankyease, a suburb of Agona Swedru.

man called Charles Sogli who hails from Ziope, in the Volta Region of Ghana

region upon authentic checks.
According to Sir Polymath Agbanyo who interviewed
him on Ho 92.5 FM, Charles is said to have dropped out of school because of
unavailability of a suitable shoe size.
The extra-large slippers which he wears, was
specially made for him at the cost of around GHC75 or 13 USD. He said to have enrolled

known as “Awuche” is unfazed by his stature but rather aspires for greatness
and international recognition with his gigantic stature.Abdul Sonnet Suleyman
The 8- feet tall 27year old indigene of Nalerigu in
the East Mamprusi municipality in the North East Region of Ghana, said he was
born a short person but at age 10, he realized that he was growing
astronomically tall, prompting his parents and opinion leaders in the community
to have a second look at his growth by consulting the oracles.
Speaking with
the Editor of senaradioonline.com in an interview he said “I feel exceptional
because of my height and people always want to come closer to me and take
pictures with me”,
He added that his utmost aim is to use his unique
personality to attain an international recognition which he said would also
help attract investors or tourists into Nalerigu, thereby boosting the economic
fortunes of the community whilst also benefiting from it as a person.
Awuche as he likes to be called however said, in spite of his looks, he thanks God for how far he has brought him through a stature which he says now brings food to his table.
