Twins appear to be unusually abundant in Nigeria's southwestern city of Igbo-Ora. Nearly every family here has twins or other multiple births, says local chief Jimoh Titiloye. For the past 12 years, the community has organized an annual festival to celebrate twins. This year's event, held in October, included more than 1,000 pairs of twins and drew participants from as far away as France, organizers said. There is no proven scientific explanation for the high rate of twins in Igbo-Ora, a city of at least 200,000 people 135 kilometers (83 miles) south of Nigeria's largest city, Lagos. But many in Igbo-Ora believe it can be traced to women's diets. Alake Olawunmi, a mother of twins, attributes it to a local delicacy called amala which is made from yam flour. John Ofem, a gynecologist based in the capital, Abuja, says it very well could be “that there are things they eat there that have a high level of certain hormones that now result in what we call multiple ovulation.” While that could explain the higher-than-normal rate of fraternal twins in Igbo-Ora, the city also has a significant number of identical twins. Those result instead from a single fertilized egg that divides into two — not because of hyperovulation. Taiwo Ojeniyi, a Nigerian student, said he attended the festival with his twin brother “to celebrate the uniqueness” of multiple births. “We cherish twins while in some parts of the world, they condemn twins,” he said. “It is a blessing from God.” This article was provided by The Associated Press.

Nikki is a visionary, a truth teller; and a fierce, fiery advocate for ending the stigma around mental health issues. Her passion comes from her own experiences living with a serious mental illness and being a suicide survivor. She turned her pain into promise, sharing her journey in her musical “GET OUT ALIVE.” She talks with Jeanne about what it will take to change the stigma; why self-care is so important and why it goes way beyond pampering; why the word “should” is so harmful; how we need to be authentic enough to stop covering up our mental health issues; and why fearless authenticity means refusing to perform for love or acceptance. About Nikki: She is a performer, writer, and visual artist who has been fusing mental health activism into her performance art since 2016. She has been honored with an Ambassador of the Year Award by NAMI, the largest grassroots mental health organization in the country. With her musical about depression “GET OUT ALIVE,” Nikki made history as the first Black female playwright to be produced by American Music Theatre Project and the first AMTP work to debut at Steppenwolf Theatre in Chicago. The show has its New York debut in October for the NAMT's 34th Annual Festival of New Musicals. Nikki also adapted the musical to film during the pandemic, leading to invitations from nine film festivals and three awards. Her mental health docuseries “Happy Songs About Unhappy Things” is also currently in production.
