ACROSS Nigeria, self-styled healers continue to promote herbal ‘cures’ for HIV, charging desperate patients hefty sums for unverified treatments. The ICIR digs into the HIV healing drugs scams promoted on social media.
Despite scientific consensus that no known cure for HIV virus exists, these individuals flood social media and messaging platforms with promises of total healing. The ICIR uncovers a troubling pattern; once payments are made, the supposed healers disappear, leaving behind stories of deception, financial loss, and renewed despair among people living with the virus.
In the course of this investigation, The ICIR reporter stumbled on a sponsored Facebook advertisements claiming to cure HIV. The claim stood out, given that HIV has no known cure but can only be managed through the consistent use of antiretroviral (ARV) drugs.
Posted on a Facebook page, the advert called ‘Ancient Herbal Secrets’, featured a graphic message urging users to “ditch ARVs” in favour of a supposed herbal cure called ‘K28 Xleya’, said to be produced by a company called H & H.
The post reads: “For years, people were told HIV can only be managed by taking ARV daily. But now, Nature has given us K28 Xleya which removes HIV viruses from your body completely. It is the breakthrough solution that has helped thousands of people get totally free from HIV.”
