UPDATE On Ghana's Conjoined Twins: Swedish couple to adopt conjoined twins



The Social Welfare Department has finally settled on a Swedish couple to adopt the conjoined twins born at the Cape Coast Metropolitan Hospital a fortnight ago.
This follows a formal agreement signed by the family of the conjoined twins on Wednesday to leave the children in the sole custody of government.
The mother of the babies, 16, and her family rejected them upon upon birth. The babies who share the same heart have two stomachs, two hands and legs.
Joy News’ Richard Kojo Nyarko, reporting from the Central region indicated that the Swedish couple will be in Ghana soon to conclude the adoption processes and take full responsibility for the babies.
According to the Central regional head of the Social Welfare, Kate Abban, the mother of the twins has surrendered every right to the children to government.
“…Fortunately, we’ve got somebody from Sweden who has shown interest in the children, she will come to Ghana for the necessary documents to be done and then she will send the children outside [Ghana],” Kate added.
