Ondo mystery disease: Pesticides suspected, says WHO

The community people may think that what is happening to them is spiritually related but the World Health Organization holds a different theory. They say pesticide poisoning is the probable cause of the strange ailment that has hit two communities in Ondo state leading to 14 deaths.

Head of Public Relations/Social Media for the World Health Organization and the UN Organization for public health took to twitter to announce the new findings as WHO continues its research on the strange disease.

A faction categorically told us the cause of the strange illness and another faction is still giving us probability. The WHO guys should be careful not to incur the wrath of the said deity

From experience, when pple don't know the cause of sth and are too lazy to find out, they blame it on sth spiritual.

In as much there is nothing like spiritual issues in science or health without strong scientific back up, I still suggest the acclaimed story from the chief Priest shouldn't be thrown into thin air.
