There are many good and unique tales from Igbo-Ora, a historical city in Oyo state. The most important tale is that the town is known for the birth of twins and is said to be the town with the highest number of twins in Nigeria and one of the few ones in the world, also referred to as the twin capital of the world.

On October 8, Igbo-Ora marked the World Twins Festival aimed at promoting the cultural heritage of the community.

Seyi Makinde, governor of the state, was in attendance as twins from the community trooped out to grace the annual event.

Below are photos from the festival:
