Gambian President Yahya Jammeh claims he has cured 68 patients who had HIV/AIDS in varying degrees with his secret concoction of boiled herbs...
In 2007, he first announced that he had found a natural remedy to cure AIDS, stirring anger among Western medical experts who claimed he was giving false hope to the sick.
The World Health Organisation and the United Nations are yet to endorse his HIV?AIDS cure saying his treatment is alarming mainly because patients are required to cease their anti-retroviral drugs which makes them more prone to infection.
According to Reuters reports, the president who made claims to have recently cured the seventh batch of HIV/AIDS patients undergoing his herbal treatment said: "Who am I to expect that everybody would praise me. Just as the Prophet Mohammed prevailed and established Islam (…) I also prevailed to cure HIV/AIDS to the point that 68 are being discharged today," he said.
