Wa do,
Happy New Month! I want to start on that ecstatic note. It
has been a wonderful year thus far. There have been many challenges but with
faith, we are more than overcomers. I just said, Good day, in Urhobo language of Delta State, Nigeria. If
my spelling is not right, any of my Edo friends should endeavor to correct me.
There are many illnesses that have similar symptoms,
unfortunately, I am not a medic, these illnesses have drugs used in curing
them. However, there are times when wrong diagnosis lead to wrong prescriptions
which ultimately lead to death. Like it is said, “doctors bury their mistakes.”
Let’s consider something from a Yoruba proverb for this week. “E fi ete sile; e n pa lapalapa” which literarily
means leprosy has been ignored while eczema is being treated. These illnesses
have whitish looks but they differ.
