======STORY BEGINS====<\/h3>\n

There was once a family. They had lived through many generations, and were rich, strong, God fearing people.<\/p>\n

But one day, one of their offspring brought disgrace to the family. <\/strong><\/p>\n

His name was Leinad.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Leinad thought he was clever, but often did things that showed he was not very smart.<\/p>\n

On that fateful day, armed robbers broke into the house where he lived with his family, and demanded for two million naira.<\/p>\n

But they were fair with him, and gave him two options.<\/p>\n

They told him to choose between being injected with a syringe containing HIV infected blood, or giving them the two million naira.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will be back in five days time\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, said the men of the underworld.<\/p>\n

After five days they came back asking him if he had made his decision.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cYes. I want to give you the money\u201d<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere is it\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, said the men of the under world.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is in my room\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, he replied.<\/p>\n

\u201cThen bring it out now!\u201d<\/em><\/strong> they said.<\/p>\n

Leinad went to his room, but instead of getting the money, he wore a condom on his manhood, then went back downstairs, and said:<\/p>\n

\u201cI want the syringe, I want the syringe man!\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

So, they tried to inject him in the buttocks with the syringe.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, on my hand\u201d<\/em><\/strong> he said.<\/p>\n

They injected him and left saying \u201cYou did this to yourself!\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

But Leinad laughed saying: <\/strong>\u201cThose fools they don\u2019t know that I am wearing a condom\u201d<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Two years later he died of HIV.<\/p>\n
