Nigerian twin boys, recipients of US scholarships, have chosen to stay with their dedicated stepfather instead of reuniting with their biological father [/b]who unexpectedly reappeared.
The story emerged from tweets by @Ifeade_Lu on Twitter.
As per Ifeade_Lu, the boys’ stepfather, a friend of hers, married their mother when they were young.
He embraced the role of a father figure, providing them unwavering love, support, and guidance.
The stepfather's dedication to the twins was evident in his commitment to their upbringing and education, treating them as his own.
However, their tale took an unexpected twist when both twins received full scholarships to Barry University in Florida, USA.
The biological father seized this chance to reconnect with his sons, hoping to mend the estranged relationship.
Yet, the twins' response to reconnection was remarkable.
The post reads,
“A friend of mine got married to a single mother who already had two children, and together they also had their own kids. He treated her children as his own and gave them a loving upbringing.
“Recently, twin boys received a full scholarship to Barry University, the biological father unexpectedly appeared and tried to insert himself into their lives.
“The children firmly stated that he couldn't just show up now, as their stepfather had been loving and present in their lives from the start. He had never missed a day and had taught them the importance of love and respect.
“I am incredibly proud of my friend for taking on the responsibility of caring for children who weren't his own. I'm proud of him. And I'm proud of the boys for not being ungrateful.”
