Humble Pie! – Adewale Sobowale

I think it’s high time Nigeria ate the humble pie. Of course, apologies to other African nations is a given, considering the gra gra we used to make in those days.

Gone are the days when we ridiculously called ourselves the giants of Africa. They are gone because even unborn babies can see if indeed we were giants, then we must be the biblical Goliath.

What do we have to show for our senseless mano a mano?

Anyway, is it too much for us to send a delegation to Madagascar to check out what herbal medicine the nation is using to combat COVID 19? It has been confirmed that due to the use of a herbal tea made from artemesia and other local herbs, Madagascar is yet to record any death from the virus.

According to reports, the nation has had 158 cases out of which 101 have recovered as at May 5.

We should have been one of the first set of nations to seek knowledge from Madagascar. But then, if we had done so, would help still be coming from the world bodies?
