I Started The Saltwater Ebola Cure Rumor I
Truely Am Sorry – by Adesewa (DRealGeesam1 –
nairaland username)
My confession and apology
Dear nairalanders and everyone who have
heard of the ebola Prevention "News", My
name is Adesewa , I am coming out clean
because what started has a joke has
escalated into the unprecedented.
How it started
Yesterday i was with friend in her hostel, we
were talking about this Ebola out break, when
one of my friends, Funke (she introduced me
to nairaland) brought the idea of Us playing a
prank on our friends.
The first suggestion
was to tell people that aloe very could cure
Ebola, but we thought it would sound too
ridiculous so we forgot about it.
Later that even an idea came to me (i now
regret that i did it).
I decided to send a BBM broadcast message
to my friends, telling them that the Ministry
of Health has asked everyone to bathe with
salt and warm water and drink some of it.
I sent the message 7:08pm yesterday
Later this midnight i started getting calls and
messages that i should drink salt water and
bath with it.
All efforts to tell people that i was the one
who started the joke failed. Only my friends
who i mentioned earlier believed me. Even my
mum could me this morning, i did not know
what to tell her.
I am using this medium to beg you all to
warn and tell everyone, before they drink salt
and damage their health.
Please dont be hash on me. I know this has
gone out of hand. I never knew it will be this
serious. Some have even added to the
original message i sent.
According to her, She's a student of Federal
University of Technology, Akure. .See her reply to
a post directed to her on nairaland above...
