A Yoruba man needed a heart transplant, but prior to the surgery the
doctors needed to store his blood and needed the same blood type in
case the need arises. Because the gentleman had a rare type of blood,
it couldn't be found locally. So the call went out to a number of
countries. Finally, an Igbo man was located who had the same type
and was willing to donate his blood to the Yoruba man. After the
surgery, the Yoruba man sent the Igbo man a thank-you card for giving
his blood along with an expensive diamond and a new Rolls Royce car as a
token of his appreciation.
Unfortunately, the Yoruba man had to
go through a corrective surgery once again. His doctors called the Igbo
man who was more than happy to donate his blood again. After the
second surgery, the Yoruba man sent the Igbo man a Thank You card and a
box of Chocolates. The Igbo man was shocked to see that the Yoruba man,
this time, did not acknowledge the Igbo man's kind gesture in the same
way as he had done the first time. So he phoned the Yoruba man and
asked him why he had expressed his appreciation in not a very generous
manner. The Yoruba man replied, "You forget, I have Igbo blood in me
now!"
