No surprise there. Twins plenty for Nigeria

Stop your fallacy of hasty generalization. Yoruba people have been celebrating twins before the white men came. We don't kill twins, we celebrate them.
So Yoruba is not Nigeria?? If they were better they would have gone down south to calabar to give reasons why twins should be celebrated

It's a farce brother it's a farce, this is what Yoruba used their media power to make u blive.
This is not a shocking thing to have such number of twins from A STATE.
the number could even be more if the same thing is held in delta or Calarbar or IMO or anywhere. undecided.

"YORUBA people have more set of twins if CAPITA FARCE" quote me anywhere.

Na everything be competition for una side...lol

MarySlessor did nothing in Yorubaland. She’s not recognized here for anything. You can check with Calabar people. In Yorubaland twins have special status and almost worshipped.

Oga go back and read your history. Stop twisting history. The event even happened before the amalgamation of the southern and northern protectorate (there was no entity called Nigeria). Next time just say; "Mary Slessor stopped the killings of twins in Calabar". Yoruba people never practiced such barbaric acts.

U simply lack understanding,
Show me where I said its a competition.
I just told him it could be anywhere.
Humans are the same everywhere.
There is nothing in YORUBAS that makes them different from other humans to have more twins than others, I repeat again ITS A FARCE

"When the zygote undergoes division to form embryo,it splits into two. Due to this two zygote with same genetic make up are formed which develops into two babies"

No one said they are different from other humans. Ppl just notice that the birth of twin is on the high side in Igboora (not even the entire Yoruba land). Many researchers use to go there to find out why it is. Reason some concluded its because of the type of food they eat...Meanwhile not all twin babies are formed by the division of one zygote.

OK let even go by ur claim that isn't not all YORUBAS it's igboora side.
And also said that it's due to the food they eat so what food do they eat that other yorubas don't eat.

Dude it's a farce

I was there and I participated in the festival
Are U from that area and which area are U from . Pako ,Iberekodo,Idofin or Igbole. I was born and bread there. I attended their prestigious high school called Igboora high school. My dad was also a twin. We actually have two set of twins in my compound. The bottom line is that ilasa and Amala they claimed to be one of the reasons for the twins is not so. I think it is primarily generic.

World stats indicates they have the highest number of twins in the world. I guess like someone said up there, might be traced to type of food. Ewedu, yam etc. Just postulations. Not confirmed yet.

Dude it's a farce

It's not just among igboora people. It's the whole of oyo state, Kwara and osun state. There's a high twinning rate among igbomina people too. They are found in Kwara and Osun state. Go to any school in these states, I'm sure Ull find a lot of twins there. In my hometown in osun there's no household without twins. My mum is a twin. My grandma had 3 sets. My dad also has twins in his family.
I personally think it's hereditary. But my grandma believed it was because they used to worship a twin goddess back in the day. I don't believe in wooden gods but people usually get what they worship/want/confess/desire, so maybe dt was the reason it manifested.

Lol! But why is it paining u this much? Something dt is in medical textbooks all over the world. It was ur colonial masters dt came up wt the statistics o, not Yoruba people. And no, twins are not so prevalent anywhere else in the world.

You can even take a sample of the nairaland population. I'm sure majority of the twins ull find here will be from d Yoruba tribe.
