When the king catches cancer, or when cancer catches the king, the land is in mourning. Perhaps it was the prostate that saved the king, saved the monarchy, and saved the land. But the sheer number of herbs which Nigerians peddle and drink for prostate treatment is indicative of their attitude to orthodox treatment. Scary as it is to have a national leader who has cancer, the greatest problem is when the king himself is a form of cancer to the state. If the king has cancer, the king can be saved, the king should be saved, and the land can be saved.
