Abas Akinyemi, a 48-year-old man diagnosed with End Stage Kidney Disease, is appealing for financial support to the tune of N35 million to undergo a kidney transplant.
Mr Akinyemi currently receives dialysis twice weekly and needs to continue this therapy to stay alive until he can get a kidney transplant.
According to a medical note from the General Hospital Odan, Lagos, signed by the Consultant Physician/Nephrologist, identified simply as S Alagbe, the total monthly cost for “haemodialysis and adjuvant treatment is N500,000 while the cost of kidney transplant ranges between N10 to N18 million.”
