Threads of this importance should be allowed to bask in the grace of the frontpage but it seems most Nigerians are not concious about health or any related topic. Nice on by the way, keep them coming. My favorite fruit is Mango and it was no surprise to me when it made your list. The English word for Udara/Agbalumo is Cherry. I might be wrong though. 2 Likes |
