Conjoined twins Maria and Consolata Mwakikuti, who were
joined at the abdomen, have died in a hospital in Tanzania.
The twins had been admitted to hospital due to a chronic
heart condition. They had become minor celebrities in the east African nation
where the media have closely followed their path through high school and
arrival at university. They were born in 1996. The twins were abandoned by
their mother after the death of their father, and later taken in by a Catholic
mission.
