  In this remarkable story, Adunni, the main character, depicts ambition fuelled with a burning desire to succeed despite all odds. Tales of this type still abound in Lagos, and they are portrayed in the media daily. Adunni is hailed as the poor girl with a rich mind, "Sherlock Holmes," who never stops asking intelligent questions, a child-bride, and a strong-willed girl who grew up fast due to the circumstance her parents put her through. However, she had the guts to pursue the life she wanted. - An education by any means necessary.  Adunni finally got her groove back after reading such an easy book, I could relate to the characters there. the harsh and despicable reality of Lagos till date. I would recommend this book to my friends and would love to see it turned into a film.

Battabox presenters Odunayo and Kayode took a  journey to Igbo Ora in Oyo state, where there are large number of twin births in Nigeria. This has earned the town the nickname Twin Capital of the World. "In every compound in Igbo Ora, you must find two to three sets of twins" 

After paying homage to the King of the land and getting his permission to explore Igbo Ora, they set out on the second day of their journey with their tour guide who takes them to some of the households to talk to twin parents and some of the twins themselves, both young and old. Watch footage after the break.



In Igbo-Ora, research has suggested that the multiple births could be related to the eating habits of the women in the region of the country. "Its the food we eat that makes us have twins," says one mother of twins But some people disagreed.. "I don't believe it, twins come from God.
