Gowon doesn't have HIV. He is on the board of Friends Africa. If you're enlightened enough you would know this. Do your research. He came to grace the occassion
See M.I like short turkey
Gown killed more people that aids has killed during the 30 months civil war. He is an aids messenger. Oya go on with other nigerians
People are fighting for a good cause even at an old age and others are critising because they are been given a free platform to air views of which they will remain anonymous for life!!!
General Gowon, I dove my hat for you. Keep up the good work.
Good to know that such players and celebrities are in support of zero tolerance to discrimination of people living with HIV!! Thumbs up Friends Africa!
