Health is not merely the absence of diseases. Our bodies and minds can as well be ill. Health is a state of mind and body that enables you to enjoy and cope effectively with the task that lies ahead of you. Good health is the greatest of all human possessions and to quote an Arabian proverb:
“He who has health, has hope and he who has hope has everything”. African herbalists are able to cure some diseases through the use of herbs.
There are traditional herbalists in every community, who are believed to be very knowledgeable. For example, the roots of sinjanno or senjen is boiled or soaked in water to treat stomach and urinary infection.
And to thank a very dynamic leader and a Pan-Africanist, Alh Dr Yahya Jammeh, who uses herbal medicine to cure HIV/AIDS, diabetes, etc, which affected the lives of many Gambians and non-Gambians.
Thank you Mr President
Merci boucoup!
