As reported by the LAGOS STATE OFFICIAL WEBSITE, Mrs. Adefule-Ositelu said that many Nigerians use traditional medicine but would not admit it, adding that about 70 to 80 per cent of Nigerians consult traditional medicine practitioners for various ailments and also use herbal drinks (Agbo) as medication.

“Many people are using agbo for various ailments but are not bold enough to let others know. Traditional medicine is what our forefathers and mothers used to take care of themselves and they were fine before conventional medicine came to be. Now that the conventional medicine is here, it is unfortunate that it has changed our minds and made us lose faith in our forefathers’ style of treatment”.Jamb Result

“God had endowed us in this continent and our traditional medicine practice is the envy of the whole world today. Let’s encourage ourselves and make good use of what God has given us. We are all doing the work of the Almighty God.”

“I am proud that this facility is being opened today and I know we will open bigger traditional medicine facilities like this soonest.”

Also speaking, the Managing Director, ‘NatureCanFixYou’ Clinic, Mrs. Abisola Kadiku, said “Nature is complete in bringing wholeness to the body in a way that man has neither completely understood, explored nor discovered. Natural medicine provides for you the option to choose a medical treatment with little or no side effects.”

LAGOS STATE GOVERNMENT WEBSITE reports that the Vice President and Executive Director, Green Centre for Natural Medicine, Lagos, Nigeria, Dr. Darlington Okafor emphasised that traditional medicine has come to stay.

“We need to change our orientation about indigenous means of treatment. Other countries of the world boast of their traditional medicine and they look up to ours because what we have in Nigeria is more effective and it is accepted all over the world.”
