Mr
Elemigbuwa Tosin, is a native doctor from Ondo state who claims that he
can cure victims struck by the Ebola virus. He made this known during
an interview with national daily. He said the description and symptoms
of Ebola match the rare sickness he treated in the past. Though he does
not call it Ebola, he calls it “Aisan Ode” in Ondo State’s native Ikale
dialect. He also added that it is a striking sign of a deity related to
the waters called ‘Obaluaye’. He said it was highly contagious and
almost incurable.
Elemigbewa, who is currently in Lagos with some of his relief medicine for the Ebola vicitims, says that the government should not underestimate Traditonal healers and that he should be given a chance to prove that he can cure the sickness at least with one patient. He advised doctors against the use of syringe in treating the disease as it worsens the sickness.
