Published on December 20, 2019, Bungoma twins Stacy and Shirley have made headlines once again for achieving identical grades in the 2019 KCSE exams.
The twins, both 18 years old, scored an A minus grade from St. Brigids Girls High School in Trans Nzoia.
Stacy, indexed at number 74, and her younger twin Shirley, placed as index number 75, have been indistinguishable since birth.
Four years ago, they both scored 408 marks in the KCPE examinations, a feat that has been repeated in the 2019 KCSE exams.
Speaking to Citizen TV, Shirley expressed her joy, saying, "I am so happy…my desire is to be a dentist…." Her sister has similar aspirations.
Their parents were overjoyed with their daughter's achievement, with their mother saying, "Initially they had different career dreams but now they hope their desire to take the same course will be realized once the placement exercise is done….."
