Nigerian twin brothers defy odds, land jobs at NNPC

Identical twins Hussaini and Hassan Malami have both secured jobs with the Nigerian National Petroleum Company as part of its Tigers Class of 2026, according to Punch Newspapers.

Hassan initially hesitated to apply, wrongly believing NNPC only hired one person per family, and had leaned toward the Nigerian Air Force instead. He applied after encouragement from Hussaini, and both took separate recruitment tests in Sokoto and Kaduna before receiving employment letters the same day.

Hussaini joined NNPC Exploration & Production, while Hassan joined NNPC Gas Infrastructure Company.
