Sickle Cell struggles in Nigeria
The unfortunate battle amongst sickle cell patients, drug companies and the government is continously unfolding in countries like Nigeria. There is an urgent demand for the unavailable sickle cell drug, Nicosan (See article on Nicosan battle).

What is happening in Nigeria is a big mess and there are real people suffering from this and that’s the real story here. How low of a humanbeing you have to be to allow this type of treatment to go on without any sympathy for those who are innocently caught in the crossfire. These people, my brothers & sisters who are in arms with me in this war has more than enough to worry about are the victims I’in this, redtape political bureaucracy bull. To the banks who liquadated this company & to the government of Nigeria who took away there liscense put your collective heads together and get to the bottom of the matter &come up with a solution so the suffering can stop. I also have Sickle Cell Anemia Disease here in America & I have hardships of my own to deal with but I have access to a better system then in Nigeria & its still hard, so I know that I wouldn’t know what to do if I didn’t have it, I would go nuts! I hope this problem will be resolved in short order. Once again Im riding with you sitting shotgun, your brother in arms.
