KINGwax: its not cotton wool bros. Its locally made wick. Made from residues of palm oil processing: its called ogusho!!!you may be right about that as in my own area/village back then (late 80s/early 90s) we use cotton wool, so i cant say if others use "oguso", but am pretty sure wool is commonly used. |
