Nigerian conjoined twins delivered at a Lagos hospital on the 8th of May 2017, have undergone a successful surgery in Bangalore, India, according to reports.

 

Obinna and Amarachi Ugwuoke, who already had two children, were shocked on seeing their twin babies, James and John, shortly after delivery - they were fused at the stomach.

The twins were subsequently flown to India, where they were successfully separated, after a marathon operation that involved 22 specialists.
