A middle aged woman (who pleaded anonymity) has confessed to mixing her blood with zobo drink which she sells to the public.
Confiance News gathered from Sly news report.
The confession which has caused much stir revealed the woman after being confirmed positive for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) apparently wanted other innocent citizens to contract the virus through her Zobo drink.
Zobo, Confiance News culled from Wikipedia- a free open content, online encyclopedia, is the word in the Hausa language for the edible plant Hibiscus sabdariffa, as well as the drink made from its petals.
She made this revelation during a radio programme on Wazobia FM, MarketRunz; when the presenters of the shows asked Nigerians to call in and state something bad they have done that they are not proud of.
The lady who has Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) said she does not have the money to treat herself and she decided to add her blood to the zobo drink she’s selling because she does not want to die alone.
She said: “I went to the hospital six months ago and I was told
I had HIV.
“I don’t have money for treatment so I decided that I would not die alone. I started mixing my blood with the zobo
“I make to sell and I sell to many people.
When asked on how she does it, she said: “I extract my blood with a syringe and mix it in the zobo. I was a nurse before but when I was confirmed HIV positive, I had to stop.
“I’m not happy with what I have done but I am happy that I will not die alone. I have been doing it for six months now and I pray God will forgive me,” she said.
