I am kelechi Onwe from Ebonyi StateMy twins got missing in the compound where I live.I gave birth on 11th day of September only for them to disappear on the 30th of October.
I suspect my neighbour in the compound for the disappearance of my kids.
1It didn’t happen in the hospital but in the compound where I live because I had already delivered and returned to the house.
I suspect my neighbour because she stays with me in the yard.I came into the compound a week before she moved in
On a Thursday I had taken them to take injection because they were not feeling fine.
That night, I didn’t sleep and they too.I strapped one on my back and carried the other in my hands. I was walking round the compound almost the entire night.
Inside, they were crying, I took them to the backyard.1About 6am, I put them down to use the toilet.

As I came back where they laid, I wanted to lie down beside them. I shifted the first, he turned, but when I tried shifting the younger, he didn’t move. I was saying what is this?I quickly lifted him and ran towards the house of one traditional healer in the neighborhood; the man was able to restore him.
I bathed them and when I finished bathing them I decided to sleep a little.
This was around 2pm Later after splitting firewood I realised I had started bleeding.I took some herbs for it but my tummy was still disturbing.I told that neighbor of mine that I was still having stomach Upset

She advised me to go get stout and drink that it would help to clear the things disturbing my tummy.I brought out money and gave my younger sister to go buy a bottle of Stout for me but the woman protested.
She said instead of wasting time, I should take the one she had in her house,so I agreed.
After I took the small stout, I vomited what was inside my stomach.I was feeling uncomfortable and told my younger sister to please put water for me to cool my body.
To lie down to rest, my first twin Chimaobi woke up. I called my younger sister again to come and carry him while I lie with the younger one.
When I woke up, I didn’t see any of my twin babies.Even my phone I couldn’t find. I wanted to go inside, the door had been locked.I had to jump the fence to get outside as the only option, only to see my sister coming.I asked her where she was coming from.
She said neighbour had sent her on an errand to get Egusi soup for her wherever she may find it.
I asked her about the children, she said neighbor took them from her so she could go and get the soup she had requested.
When I asked her whether she sighed at the neighbour, she said she saw her in a keke with the children and that she had even thought I was inside the keke as well .
That was how I started running Helter skelter. I couldn’t get myself, later running back to the native doctor to explain to him what had befallen me.
Editor’s note:As at the time of filing this report, neither the woman nor the twins had been sighted.
