'Right now, my two kidneys are gone'' – Ailing producer, OJB Jezreel speaks out
Popular producer, OJB Jezreel
recently granted an interview to
the Encomium, a soft sell
magazine revealing that he has
about eight weeks left to get his
operation done.
OJB, who is suffering from a
kidney condition is soliciting for money to enable him travel
out of the country for a kidney transplant which is expected to
save his life.
Read excerpts from the Encomium magazine interview below:
“When early diagnosis was done, it was just a case of
renal failure. Right now, my two kidneys are gone. We
are running dialysis at the moment. It started two years
ago, but gradually depreciated. Most people tend to
attribute kidney problem to drinking and smoking. I
was told it doesn’t have anything to do with that,
because as much as I drink and smoke then, it was
casual drinking. Maybe they offer you a bottle of drink
and all that but not like I drink 15 bottles a day. I have
a friend who has gone through this and he never drank
or smoked.
“The whole process of the treatment from pre-process,
transplanting process and post-transplanting will cost
about $100, 000. In two years I have spent up to
N5million which I have been trying to maintain myself.
That is why it has been kept secret.”
“God willing, I have like eight to ten weeks more to get
the transplant done. It’s strange, I still walk around a
little. I can’t eat much though. I trust God and
Nigerians for their financial support”
