Moringer leaves cure 300 diseases, Says Don.

Langtang (Plateau) – A Don, Prof. Zachariah Russom, says
Moringa leaves can cure more than 300 diseases.
Russom, who teaches at the University of Jos, said this
during a workshop for farmers in Langtang North, Plateau,
organised by the Centre for Biotechnology and Genetic
Engineering (CBGE) of the university.
He said that Nigeria was blessed with abundant agricultural
potentials and called on farmers to take the advantage to
grow more Moringa plant which he called “miracle plant”.
‘’Moringa is a wonder plant which has proved to be a cure
for more than 300 diseases in the world.
“Growing moringa plants is like growing multi vitamins at
your doorstep as science has proved that the leaves are
packed with incredible nutrition that can strengthen our
bodies and prevent many diseases.
He said the leaves contained huge quantities of protein,
vitamins C and A, and calcium.
The Chairman of Langtang North Local government, Mr
Nanmwan Godwin, represented by the council’s secretary,
Mr Richard Jateau, said the workshop was timely.
He said the workshop came at a time when Nigeria was
making frantic efforts diversify its economy owing to the
daunting challenges that the oil market was facing.
The Director of the Centre, Prof. Bashir Ajayi, said the aim
of the workshop was to expose farmers and people at the
grassroots to the usefulness of some of the plants they
were growing within their surroundings.
