Hard to believe such practices are still happening in this day and age. I only found out about twin killings a few years ago when my father in law died at the ripe old age of 97. Discussing his life with my hubby who disclosed that his twin was killed, as then it (multiple births) were seen as an abomination, but we are talking about nearly 100 years ago. |

Instead of talking, complaining or having pity, we should find a way of stopping this barbaric act. You can be part of this campaign by broadcasting this on your BBM, facebook, twitter and other social platforms until it gets the attention of the authorities and concerned organisations and individuals that could put a stop to this ungodly culture. I have put up this piece below which I am going to broadcast right away. Pls join me. 40 ABUJA TOWNS STILL KILL TWINS! Pls, rebroadcast and join in this campaign to draw the attention of Ministry of Women Affairs, Human Right Groups, Child Right Organisations, Religious Groups, NGOs and CSOs to these communities and stop this barbaric act. |

The problem with liars is that they don't know when they overlie. If your grandfather was a twin in a twin killing community, how come he was still alive at 97? Or did your community do selective killing? |
Re: 40 Abuja Towns Kill Twins! by amarush(f): 2:06pm On Mar 27, 2013 |
Alfamann: What are you ranting about!? Simples. They killed one, kept the other. No reason to lie, its a shameful/misguided practice and if u ask people/elders of a certain age they will know about it. Don't know why you are getting so worked up about this topic. |
Re: 40 Abuja Towns Kill Twins! by Alfamann: 2:18pm On Mar 27, 2013 |
amarush: Who killed one? Is is now "Africans kill one twin"? I thought it was "Africans kill twins". I am not getting worked up or anything. I am just pointing out the white lies propagated about us. |
Re: 40 Abuja Towns Kill Twins! by chucky234(m): 2:23pm On Mar 27, 2013 |
I am sure there are no electricity in those communities making it impossible for them to watch Psquare to see how successful they become as twins,civilisation is way too far from those remote communities. |
Re: 40 Abuja Towns Kill Twins! by Nobody: 2:31pm On Mar 27, 2013 |
haba, Kwali, Abaji, Gwagwalada etc are not in the bush now, how come nobody is doing something? I really do not beleive the Bassa part of that story, the Bassa children will die of poverty, diseases, hunger etc whether picked or not picked spiritualy for sacrifice! |

amarush:it's of no use arguing with that fuccking pagan! I remember my grandma told me how some twins were lucky to have escaped being killed. I mean only one of the twin would be alive because he or she was taken to another village. exactly what we watch in nollywood movies. a distant relation of mine was a twin too. immediately his mother gave birth, the news went to the village head and luckily for him, his father absconded with him being a male and left his mother with the female twin. sadly, the female twin was killed. the man should be in his 80's now. |

Killing of twins is totally wrong. However mary slessor was one lying biatch. Bleep that biatch. For her defamation, may her name be an example of criminal colonial lies. |

So your tales are based on nollywood movies. smh. Have you all noticed a pattern with all these urban legend protagonists? It is always "I was told", "my friend saw it", "it happenned to a distant relation" "oyibo wrote it in a book" etc. They never have a first hand account. |

Dibiachukwu: Killing of twins is totally wrong.and you feel you just made a point? what have you achieved in your entire miserable life on earth? call her whatever you like, that will not stop the people of calabar and Nigerians to respect her. |
Re: 40 Abuja Towns Kill Twins! by Nobody: 3:12pm On Mar 27, 2013 |
Alfamann:shut up you ignorant fool! you have no right to turn around what history has said. you keeping ranting like a wounded mice yet you haven't given any proof. fuccking pagan! |

LADY OF RAGE: and you feel you just made a point? what have you achieved in your entire miserable life on earth? call her whatever you like, that will not stop the people of calabar and Nigerians to respect her.Why did that biatch go on to put lies in their colonial books about Igbos. This is why I maintain that she is a lying biatch. You can't play with fire and expect not to get burnt. |

LADY OF RAGE: shut up you ignorant fool! you have no right to turn around what history has said. you keeping ranting like a wounded mice yet you haven't given any proof. fuccking pagan!You shut up. You have no proof apart from what the colonial criminals wrote to defame you. Guess what? They also wrote that you are a savage being. Tell me, are you a savage? Believe whatever you want, but don't try to pull any community into your mental laziness. |
Re: 40 Abuja Towns Kill Twins! by amarush(f): 3:27pm On Mar 27, 2013 |
Alfamann: My husbands father was not a "distant relative". If you want a "first hand account" I suggest you jump in a time machine and set the dial to 1900, then come back and tell us how it really went down. The generation affected by this are well into their 90's many have passed away. The generation that witnessed/perpetrated this are long gone. |
Re: 40 Abuja Towns Kill Twins! by Dibiachukwu: 3:37pm On Mar 27, 2013 |
amarush:Where is your proof? Verifiable folklore? All I hear is crap from the same people that claim to have discovered River Niger and America! |
