Two sets of identical twins have officially tied the knot in a rare double wedding ceremony in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State. The unusual union brought together twin sisters from the host community and twin brothers from Abia State, officially exchanging marital vows.
The brides, Roselyn and Joycelyn Bernard, hail from the Nung Efa community in Obio Offot, Uyo, while the grooms, Victor and Vincent Obasi, are natives of Isiala Ngwa North Local Government Area in Abia State. Formalising the union, Joycelyn officially married Victor, while her twin sister, Roselyn, exchanged vows with Vincent.
The couples hosted their traditional marriage rites on October 10 at St Mary’s Primary School in Obio Offot, Uyo, gathering a massive crowd, friends, relatives and onlookers. Prior to the traditional rites, the siblings concluded their white wedding at the Peculiar Citizens Assembly.
According to media reports, the double wedding captivated the public due to the striking physical resemblance shared by both sets of siblings.
In a similar occurrence in June 2026, twin brothers Taiwo and Kehinde Oguntoye married twin sisters Taiwo and Kehinde Adediran in a joint wedding ceremony in Ibadan, Oyo State.
