“Don’t Spray Perfume On Arm Pit, Private Part” – Shehu Sani

By Adesina Soyooye

Shehu Sani, a former Senator, activist, and an active commentator on current issues, is neither a Medical Doctor nor does he work at the National Agency For Food And Drug Administration Control, NAFDAC but he  has a serious health warning for those in the habit of spraying perfume on their armpit or private parts.

A number of people, in order to avoid any embarrassing odour/smell, are in the habit of spraying perfumes on those parts. But Senator Sani advises: Don’t do it. Stop it. The habit causes cancer.

In a post, Sunday, on his Facebook page, Senator Sani revealed that a young man he knew, and identified as Salisu, who regularly sprayed perfume in those areas developed Cancer and died.

Sani: “Don’t spray perfume in your armpit or private parts. If you are in the habit of doing that, learn from this. A young man called Salisu used to do so, and suddenly it triggered a strange form of cancer in those areas. The spots got rotten and his health deteriorated. He is now dead”.

Senator Sani did not, however, say if Salisu’s doctors said his type of Cancer was caused by the constant spraying of perfume in those areas. He, also, admitted to having no scientific proof, but said he shared Salisu’s story as a warning.  He added: “Just a piece of advice.”
