White man fake theory....Nigerians medical problems triple when we start neglecting our herbs.

Decolonel:
They should be very careful with that flower before they mistakenly pluck the one that will shut down their kidney. These unknown flowers can be very dangerous

The red acalypha flower. It's in the family of hibiscus. It's not edible but it's boiled and the water used to bath infants with skin problems known as Infant Dermatitis or Eczema.
Igbo nra
Yoruba Ela

Used it for my first son then and under 1 week it disappeared leaving a smooth skin. Even pediatrician s recommend it.

OP shocked, omg, what have you done to yourself? That's called the leaf of Babel. Legend has it that anywhere the leaf is planted, the leprechauns of Olympus and the gnomes of Scandinavia would come and pluck the leaves. Here's the most interesting part: for every time they pluck, the height of whoever planted it will reduce by 1mm. Check yourself, are you shorter than before? cheesy

Hilarious
