Bobo Leennox:

"This painting deals whith the aspect of HIV and AIDS in Cameroon and Africa. Infant mortatlity, infected mothers breast feed, social aspects involving youths, youngsters and students, promiuscutiy, adulter and funication, the tabu of using condoms. The community and province where I come from, is the  provience which has the highest number of HIV/ AIDS infected persons. I have children at the center who lost their parents  to HIV and who are infected themselfs, no time to buy Retrovarival drugs and so on. So the painting in all is to promote ABC, that is  ABSTINENCE, BEING FAITHFUL and CONDOMS. "
