The world is set to honor the Nigerian medical doctors credited to have separated the Conjoined twins at the National Hospital, Abuja in November 2020. The festival, which is the World Twins Festival is scheduled to hold between October 3-9, in the ancient town of Igba-Ora, Oyo State. The Festival is tagged "Twinning for Medical Breakthrough".

It should be recalled that the group of medical doctors was a 78-member team, led by a Pediatrician, Dr. Emmanuel Ameh. The Siamese twins separated borne by a cesarean section (surgery) in, August 2018. They were conjoined at the chest and abdomen. The surgery which took 13-hours was performed on November 14, 2020. It was delayed two years after their birth to avoid complications that may arise due to their fragility.

Dr. Ameh who led the team said Plastic surgeons were also included in the team as they were necessary to repair the areas that were torn and also create artificial skin to cover up those that were at risk of getting infected.

The twins were the first to be separated in the National Hospital and the Hospital's spokesman, Dr. Tayo Haastrup could not but express his impression:

"We are just happy and proud that the team that worked on this surgery were all Nigerians doctors. It was done in Nigeria and the parents didn't have to go outside the country," he said.

The Medical Director of the hospital, Dr. Jah Momoh also said the Surgical procedure was performed for free as the family could not afford to pay. In his words:

"My attention was drawn to their inability to pay for such an expensive medical procedure so we assessed their status and classified them as indigent. We funded their care and major surgeries that separated them. We also ensured that the lack of funds did not stop the beautiful twins from enjoying their lives independently, "he said.

Indeed, this team of doctors deserve to be honored!

One of the Nigerian Big Brother 2021 roommates, White Money has asked his roommate and best friend Miss Queen to let him have some fun in the house after the party on Saturday night as this may be the last time they will attend the show together. He stressed that since it is impossible to predict the outcome of Sunday's eviction, it can be good to have fun one last time.

Recall that White told Big Brother at his diary meeting last week that he was already happy with his time on the national reality show. Nevertheless, if it turns out that he is leaving at that time, he must thank the organizers.

During their conversation, Queen asked how many glasses White had drunk during the party and asked for attention. But Mazi insisted that she let him enjoy life, because tomorrow is pregnant, no one knows what she will produce. They smiled and went straight to the kitchen.

What do you think about today's eviction? Do you think White Money can be evicted today? Use the comment section below to share your opinion with us.
