- A Nigerian herbal doctor has claimed to have discovered a cure for HIV.

A Nigerian herbal doctor has drawn widespread attention online after boldly announcing that he has found a cure for HIV—and promising to pay ₦20 million if it doesn’t work.
The statement was made in a series of posts by @TheRoyalHerbs on X (formerly known as Twitter), where he confidently promoted his supposed remedy.
The conversation picked up momentum when X user @the_beardedsina quoted one of the herbal doctor’s posts, asking if he could try the alleged cure for free.
In response, the herbal doctor replied, “Sure, in as much you can sign agreement with my lawyer to pay ₦10 Naira after treatment ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻.”
@the_beardedsina then challenged the offer, suggesting a new deal: “Let’s do this. I pay you ₦2 million naira for your drug. If it doesn’t cure HIV as you said, you pay me ₦20 million…since it’s your word against your word. Deal… Are you in?”
The herbal doctor came back with a counteroffer: “You pay me ₦10M if it works, I pay you ₦20M if it doesn’t! Deal?”
The extraordinary claim and high-stakes agreement quickly went viral, sparking intense reactions from users online. While some were skeptical, others were curious about the outcome, flooding the comments with a mix of support, doubt, and demands for evidence.

@Fakutiju_Sola: “If you can cure HIV you would have turned a billionaire by now or let me ask can you cure kidney disease too? That way you could make 100m in few weeks.”
@ayokauna_xx: “Not trusting you blindly but I’ll believe you over “medical practitioners” in this scenario. Those people will never allow the virus to be killed off by something so cheap as herbs, they created that shii and still make money over “controlled” treatments…. I’ll never like em.”
@_kdmaverick: “So em no reach the people wey you go treat for free?.. una go dey treat big men wey go later give una benefits come dey talk say na free treatment.”
@Bayunsi: “See as my country people dey play with hiv like say na malaria fever.”
@mavxin: “This has to be some level o delusion of grandeur , whose life are you gonna use to play that game ? Are you going to use viral load or CD4 count to monitor your fake treatment?”
