A 17 year-old Malawian boy is in great pain as he is suffering from a strange disease which doctors in the country have openly admitted failure to treat.

The patient, Mphatso Jangiya a form three student at Matandwe Community Day Secondary School is currently at Mzuzu Central Hospital waiting for well-wishers to lend a hand to him so that he can manage to go to South Africa for treatment.

In an interview, his teacher Kamuyanja Elayija told Malawi24 that Jangiya’s disease started as a gum problem since he was feeling cavity pain and his gum started swelling.

Elayija explained that the boy together with his parents have tried to visit all major hospitals in the country looking for treatment for the problem but to no avail.

He said they have just been told that the hospitals in the country cannot cure the problem and they should to go to South Africa for treatment.

“It started as teeth problem some months ago and they went to Matiya Health Centre where they were referred to Zomba Central Hospital where he was operated.”

“But this helped nothing and they proceeded to Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital in Blantyre and then referred to Kamuzu Central Hospital in Lilongwe where doctors failed and told them that they should meet doctors in South Africa,” explained Elayija.

According to Elayija, Jangiya’s gums have bulged and he is struggling to eat and to speak.

 

Currently a well-wisher in Mzuzu who denied to be mentioned has lend a hand Jangiya with MK1.3 million out of One Million, five Hundred and Ten Thousand Kwacha needed.

The Jangiya family is seeking the remaining MK210, OOO (Two hundred and Ten) from well-wishers for their trip to SA since they cannot afford to get that amount on their own because victim’s father died and his mother is financially poor.

Elayija described Jangiya as a genius in class who passed his Junior Certificate of Education examinations with flying colors.

Jangiya comes from Mmina village, Traditional Authority Mwambo in Zomba district.

  25. The desease resembles bone degeneration, though it’s rare but the solution can’t really be done here in Malawi coz they have to remove all the affected part and replace it with artificial bones and restructure his face, with our resources, he can not get such a treatment here. let’s just hold hands Malawians, we can.

  76. ‘Illness that doctors locally say is incurable” that’s how poor our doctors are that couldn’t identify the disease? Why hiding the disease but exposing the amount required for medical treatment in South Africa.?

    1. thats what we call total proffesionalism. disclosure of a patient’s illness iz done at the cosent of the patient/gurdian, court of law, and if neither of the two has done so, then the doctors cannot disclose the illness/diagnosis (medical ethics)

  77. The problem is not that doctors has failed to treat that Young boy,but the fact is we don’t have doctors in Malawi any disease can be uncured in malawi what they cure is running stomach

  80. Just last month I suffered a similar diseases. My lower gun on the left started to swell and bulge like a balloon. However, I do make Kigel powder (MVUNGUTI) and started taking daily. After 2 weeks the disease healed. I am in Lilongwe. Call/WhatsApp 0999365245. I can try to treat him free while he is waiting for his trip to RSA. I am in Area 25 A.

  92. Instead of helping needy Malawians live these who are struggling with life, the so called head of state spends millions of money by raking a delegations of over 100 to the UN General Assembly. Our priorities as a country are upside-down. Shame!!!! Dzuka Malawi Dzuka!!!!!!!’m

  94. Lord Jesus. Help us to be free from these strange diseases. We know we have lost your way of righteousness. Please Lord. Heal this young man and end up this disease. We beg in you and we trust. AMEN.

  102. Mulungu ndie mwin chisoni iye ndiamene analega kumwamba ndidziko lapasi amuchilisa mwanau@km ziwa kt kwaiwe amene umati ndiwazelu mulungu akuposa Pamenepo@sibwino zathu mvuto likamugwela kumayakhulisa kwambili mawa chili kwaiwe

  108. Malawi24 you have a problem of writing stories coherently. Look here, people are understanding this story differently.

  131. Are the figures given correct.It seems the well wisher has donated more than what he needs to go to RSA if we go by what this report is telling us!!!

    1. the money that is needed now is for transportation, to my understanding as the statement reads “But the Jangiya family are seeking K210,000 for their trip”
