WORLD AIDS DAY!!!
This post and today is dedicated to all HIV infected people, living or dead. keep your head up and live your life and remember GOD LOVES YOU!
Like some of u myt knw, 2day is WORLD AIDS DAY,over 40 million people are living with HIV throughout the world and that number escalates daily. Currently, ignorance and prejudice are fuelling the spread of this disease. Aids is more than sickness, its more than death,it destroys the society!!!
STATS:
PPLE living with HIV in Nigeria: 2,900,000
Women living with HIV in Nigeria:1,240,000
chldren infected with HIV:240,000
It is so sad that with this amount of people infected , the Government spends an estimate of =N=4 per person, how ridiculous ehn? The rest is funded by Non Govermental Organisations and other international organisations.
It's obviously not only in Nigeria, it is worldwide, AFRICA has 12million AIDS ORPHANS, Around 6,000 Young people are infected everyday. thats 5 pple every minute, so by the time u finish this post, 5 YOUNG pple are already victims.

RED HOT A tribute to FELA goin on.
You can also start by buying the red ribbon from MAC STORES, VIRGIN MEGASTORES AND LEVIS stores. You can even have a fundraiser party and send all the proceeds to any HIV ORGANISATION in Naija or anywia in the world.
Like FEMI KUTI dey yearn, AIDS NO DEY SHOW 4 FACE, SO ZIP UP or WRAP UP...lol, abstain or use a condom, but remember it only reduces your chances. In Naija, HIV is transmitted mainly through sex....80%, 10% blood transfussion and the remaining 10% is by others eg mother to child, injections......GOD HELP US!
That woman was damn right, the emotional aspect of it kills faster than the disease itself, find out in the above websites how u can live with infected people....
