What is it with you? Have you never played any prank on your friends before?
Respect yourself...

Lol, you even want to beat up some people, Babe you sef dey vex oooo

Calm down small and collect a few bashings, that should more than compensate for the angst people feel about the cruel joke. Meanwhile stop hitting back.

sad what people have time to do. People have decide to be jobless. Now, by the time the actual prevention method is Out, people will say taaah, 'Na Lie' that is when it'll Hit Hard because of things like this. OAN;: this thread will go really wide. Should be fun.
S/N: that's if this isn't a way to just generate traffick for this forum.

OP, I don't care what people say to you, if indeed you originated this rumour, I say YOU ARE A GENIUS. YES, a genius for exposing the pervading ignorance and illiteracy among even the educated elites in Nigeria. Until we learn the importance in verification, we will continue to endure and enjoy the merry round in the company of a clattering chatterboxes taking our brains to lunch! Ride on young lady, am impressed!!!!!!!!!

With how dangerous the virus is, I don't expect someone to start making a joke out of it, you made a joke of it, you didn't make a simple joke, you made an expensive one, and you know how people are reluctant over the cure.

If salt has nothing to do with cure, that means you have misled so many people.

If you received any message about salt in warm water preventing
Ebola and you believed and spread that message, here are some
small 'tips' for you:
1. Kindly go to your university, polytechnic or
college of education and return your degree certificate
2. Also please ensure you refund ALL the fees your parents paid for you.
3. And if you've not been to any school, don't bother to waste
your time, money and resources because it won't make any
difference.

DRealGeesam1: My confession and apology

Dear nairalanders and everyone who have heard of the ebola Prevention "News", My name is Adesewa, I am coming out clean because what started has a joke has escalated into the unprecedented.
How it started
Yesterday i was with friend in her hostel, we were talking about this Ebola out break, when one of my friends, Funke (she introduced me to nairaland) brought the idea of Us playing a prank on our friends. The first suggestion was to tell people that aloe very could cure Ebola, but we thought it would sound too ridiculous so we forgot about it.

Later that even an idea came to me (i now regret that i did it).
I decided to send a BBM broadcast message to my friends, telling them that the Ministry of Health has asked everyone to bathe with salt and warm water and drink some of it.
I sent the message 7:08pm yesterday

Later this midnight i started getting calls and messages that i should drink salt water and bath with it.

All efforts to tell people that i was the one who started the joke failed. Only my friends who i mentioned earlier believed me. Even my mum could me this morning, i did not know what to tell her.

I am using this medium to beg you all to warn and tell everyone, before they drink salt and damage their health.

Please dont be hash on me. I know this has gone out of hand. I never knew it will be this serious. Some have even added to the original message i sent.
young lady! you see what you've caused, I think you should be arrested for character assasination.

Thank God you didn't ask people to bath with pepper water because even so, some will still go ahead and do it even though it sounds illogical.
