Thank you. If I have the means of procuring the drugs and distribute it freely, I will do. I have a friend who happens to be a police officer and a nurse. He works in a police hospital. In 2005, he and other officers were going to sudan for foreign mission so they were given the oral vaccine. The satchet contain 3 tablets which you have to take one every other day. Pregnant women and children below 8 years must not take it. He gave me three satchets and I took one and followed the dosage. The other two satchets were dumped somewhere. Later when he came bacb I asked him for more but he said, it was not made available and I have forgotten the name on it. But I have never had typhoid fever in my life even when neighbours and family members had it. It is even cheaper than treating typhoid fever.

Thanks for the update, if you can still get in touch with your friend, the name of the drug you were given would seal the deal for us.

I just spoke to him now. He said the drug was imported into the country then by the wife of former Inspector General if Police (Tafa Balogun). And you see, the price if the vaccine is cheaper than to cure the sickness.
As it stands now, I don't think you can get it in Nigeria. Check the link below
