and Gambian President announces 'cure' for sickle cell, stroke

Dakar, Senegal - Gambian President Yahya Jammeh says he has found a 'cure' for sickle cell anemia, stroke and a host of other diseases, PANA reported from here Wednesday. According to sources in Banjul, the Gambian capital, Jammeh made the announcement while celebrating the fourth anniversary of what he and his supporters called a medical 'breakthrough'.

The President of the West African nation had, in 2007, announced finding the cure for HIV/AIDS, infertility and about 99 other diseases using herbal concoctions.

Announcing his latest discovery, the Gambian leader said out of 11 patients suffering from sickle cell, nine were cured of the disease after one month, while the remaining two took longer to be healed.

Jammeh also said he had treated some eight patients suffering from stroke, and that they were now going about their normal businesses.

From time to time, the Gambian President retreats to his native village of Kanilai, located some 120 kilometres South-east of Banjul, where he runs a traditional medicine clinic.

Critics have continued to challenge the effectiveness of such treatment, with some calling for scientific proof of the efficacy of his concoctions.
