Pls does anybody know d English, Igbo & Hausa name for ds seed? Somebody saw it with a farmer in d village.

it's called "abere" in Yoruba.

it's very bitter. very medicinal.

it's a cash crop (sort of). it fruits after 2years.

it's used to treat diabetes, jedi-jedi or pile.

Do we hv any other uses of it in other part if Nigeria?


Hmmmmmmm. That's what I use for Diarrhoea/stooling/running stomach.

It's highly effective and I strongly believe that it will equally stop the stooling in Cholera patients.

I make sure it's ALWAYS at home already grounded into powdered form.

peel and dice 4 sizeable bitter kola into small pieces, boil water and soak bitter kola pieces in a small sterilized glass jar for 3 days. Sieve out the water with clean cloth, pour into an eye drop container and use for seven days morning and night.

N/B: in the morning there will be white discharge from your eyes, don't panic. Your eyes will be red constantly for the days if you are consistent afterwards it'll become normal. Also avoid being in the sun when the eye drop had been applied and don't look at LCD screen and also your phone for at least 30mins once the eye drop is used. I hope this helps.
