Meet The Nigeria’s Powerful Traditional Stroke Doctor

In every part of Africa, always someone cures people of diseases that defile the medical science.  While the list of these traditional healers is endless, there are healers who are exceptionally good in what they do.  In the bustling city of Lagos is a traditional stroke doctor called Baba Imole.  People from different parts of the city including neighbouring cities come to see him with different medical issues.

Baba Imole got this trade as a gift he earned from his father who took him in as an apprentice since he was 10 years old. He believes he is the world’s number one doctor because of his success story.  He has tons of patients who wait for him to attend to them. Kids suffering from polio are not left out on his list.

Those who are suffering from witchcraft are liberated when they come to him. While Baba Imole is an underground traditional doctor, his skills in treating stroke has made him a legend among the locals. Stroke is a deadly disease that affects the arteries leading to and within the brain. A stroke occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain is either blocked by a clot or bursts (or ruptures). Strokes are brain attacks. They occur when the blood supply to the brain becomes blocked. A stroke is a medical emergency that needs immediate medical attention.

In Africa, some sufferers of stroke may not have the money to get a quick treatment before they are rendered useless by the disease. Baba Imole suddenly becomes a semi-god who helps these people have their lives back within a short time.
