Thirty-nine-year old lawyer, Bukola Obafemi, has called on well-meaning Nigerians to help her raise N4m to enable her to undergo a kidney transplant. She has been diagnosed with kidney failure by doctors at the University College Hospital, Ibadan, Oyo State.
According to a medical report, the ailing lawyer needs a kidney transplant to stay alive.
Obafemi, while soliciting the assistance of Nigerians, said she had not got the money to enable her to carry out the operations. She said, “Your intervention and support will go a long way in easing my pains and keeping me alive. Please save me.”
Her sister, Mrs. Iyabode Salako, who spoke to our correspondent, said the family had exhausted all it had in trying to save the ailing lawyer’s life. She said, “The family has spent so much and we have nothing left. Each week, we spend, at least N150,000 to take care of dialysis sessions, tests and other hospital expenses.
“But we have been told to do a kidney transplant or she may die. We are appealing to all, to do everything within their power to help the youngster to live.”
