Stop this "mental laziness" please.

If you dont know something (and we all have a lot of things we dont know!), GOOGLE is your best friend!
It is FREE and nobody will even know you dont know, inter-alia! grin wink

Only if that does not succeed should you ask others.

Anyway, click the link below and read-up (l would have copy-and-paste it here for you but l dont want to encourage laziness!)

Cheers and have a good day.

And this disease is caused by ACUTE MALNUTRITION.
Now, before malnutrition can get to an acute level, the victim must have been eating Tuwon Shinkafa with same type of soup (Miya), once a day for a consecutive period of 3 months.

This is Acute Poverty in an SOS level.
And the best doctors are leaving the North.
The worst of all...
Boko boys have rejected the unpopular amnesty.
This is "oforchineke" (unfortunate)

adejoro75: 95% of the diseases in Nigeria are in Northern regions. The more they kill innocent citizens in the name of religion, the more nature and fate pay them back in kind with all sorts of pestilence: VVF, guinea worm, TB,eye infections, Polio, leprosy and now, flesh-eating bacteria.


U re very very stupid nd selfish.

Cancrum oris or gangrenous stomatitis. Popularly known as NOMA, caused by bacteria affecting mostly the face and teeth.
Prevelent in the north, commoner among children, associated with malnutrition,poor hygiene/sanitary condition, immunosuppresion and low socioeconomic status.
Most often the defect created are not reversible. Though it can be treated.

Objectivity has continue to delude us in this part of the world, we always trade blames and deviate from important issues and chase trivial ones. Please people use your heads to think, the way we think makes us to seriously lag behind on the planet. Disease can find its way anywhere and this person has made an effort to create awareness lets just support the effort.

It should be Nomadic disease prevalent in the North of Nigeria and we need more virulent strains ASAP to reduce those maniacal almajiris.

The same loving God that sent his son on suicide mission.
So a loving God sends diseases to people....

When doctors cure them, are they working against God?
God is merciful. If he wasn't, you'd be dead meat by now.
