Mosquitoes no dey kill african man.

they boost of their immunity and continue the discussion on how mungo park cross Niger river and discover Nigeria but was not able to overcome mosquito's bite.
My only problem with mosquito is not their bite, but that noise they make and stop you from sleeping, he said, trying to mock the vulnerability of the white man to mosquito's bite. We are neghbours with this mosquitos since our environment support their growth and our blood has been immune to their disease, baba rebecca said, trying to explain the relationship between african man and the mosquitoes.

This is the myth of an African man of his immunity to mosquito bite which is founded upon ignorance.

It was not long after he boosted of his immunity, that mama Rebecca called from the inner room, papa Rebecca, come inside, he went to the room and saw Rebecca lying ill which he presumed to be malaria, na because of this small sickness na him you dey interrupt my discussion with my friends?(is it beacause of this mino sickness that you interrupt my chat with my friend?)he yelled at mama Rebecca and suggest she sings a lullaby to her to lure her to sleep Since its just a malaria sickness and cannot harm her.

he went back to the sitting room and continue chatting with his friends and told them that his daughter was suffering from malaria which he knows that after sleeping, she will be okey by morning.

By morning, Rebecca was vomiting and was rushed to the hospital because her father thought it was a different sickness, other than malaria. She was latter diagnosed of severe malaria. The doctor advice them to always clean their environment, use treated mosquitoes net and insecticide to ward off the mosquotoes.

Malaria is the most killer and neglected disease in africa
