There was once an African Chief. He was very constipated. After trying all the traditional medicines (shaman, witch doctor and what have you), he sent a runner to the nearest White man town to get him some White medicine to cure him.

The runner reached the White Mans village after a days run and knocked on the White doctors door. The door opened and the doctor asked, Yes?

Not being very fluent in English, the runner said, Big Chief – No Shit, Big Chief – No Shit.

The doctor understood the problem and gave him a couple of laxative tablets and said, Take to chief. Eat immediately. Drink water.

The runner took the tablets and delivered them to the Chief. The Chief swallowed the tablets and waited for a day. Still constipated, he sent the runner back to the White Mans village, asking for a bigger dose.

The runner reached the White doctors office, knocked on the door and said, Big Chief – No Shit, Big Chief – No Shit.

This time the White doctor, a little surprised that the laxatives had not done their job, sent back 4 tablets that were twice as effective as the first ones. He told the runner, Take to Chief. Swallow immediately. Drink lots of water. Eat bananas.

The runner delivered the tablest to the Chief, who immediately swallowed them. Still constipated, the agonized Chief sent the runner back, asking for more powerful drugs.

The runner reached the White doctors office in the middle of the night, knocked on the door and said, Big Chief – No Shit, Big Chief – No Shit.

The White doctor was annoyed. So he gave the runner 1 small powerful tablet. This laxative was meant for horses and told him Take to Chief. Swallow immediately. Drink lakes of water!

Several months went by and the White doctor never heard from the runner. He was intrigued as to what had happened.

One day on a safari, he came across the runner that had taken the tablets to the Chief. He immediately stopped his vehicle and asked the runner How is your Big Chief?

The runner hesitated for a moment, then spoke, Big Shit – No Chief, Big Shit – No Chief.
