It was thought that presenting health issues which people usually shy away from, such as issues relating to HIV and AIDS in feature. stories primarily meant to provide its audience with entertainment could go a long way to educate these audiences with the underlining relevant information on HIV. A feature story was produced to that effect and grounded theory was developed as a result of the qualitative methodology used and the inductions that were made from the responses provided by the five respondents used, two of which are persons living with HIV.
