Paula and Peter Imafidon are special twins who have broken three records. They are the youngest children to pass an A-level math exam, the youngest students to pass A-level maths paper, defeating the previous students who were home schooled and youngest ever twins to achieve this level in mathematics anywhere in the worldwide.

The twin pair achieved a grade-D in the AS-level maths, while appearing with candidates twice their age. "The children enjoy learning and see maths and science as a challenge and game rather than hard work," Sky News quoted a spokesman for the Imafidon family, Kizzi Nkwocha, as saying.

Asked about their future ambition, little Paul wants to become a "successful" prime minister and Paula wants to be a maths teacher. The twins are a part of a family of five siblings, who are all gifted academically. AGENCIES
