Amazing and interesting piece baba. I once read about the history of Igbo Ora (the twin capital of the world) and I was wowed.
Meanwhile, the story of the woman giving birth to twins that are 11months apart is nothing short of amazing and fascinating.
I've also read about twins from different fathers, now that's weird.

The twin from different fathers is explainable if the woman has two uteri. Fertilisation can take place at different times in the two uteri by sperms from different persons because each uterus has its own cervix.
I would even have difficulties to imagine them as twins as they won't look the same due to the age difference.
Exactly my thoughts too. Should we just call them siblings? :)
I would!
