      May her soul rest in peace. Almost 70 percent of south africans have HIV. Its very common in SA. Funny enuf they don't fear it like nigerians do.

      So sad she had to pass away now. May her gentle soul rest in peace. This should act as a warning to us all, we should play safe because HIV/AIDS is lurking around most corners in the world.
