Media personality needs N15 million for kidney transplant

The show host is currently being evaluated alongside his donor by doctors in the United States of America.

Linda Ikeji's Blog (LIB) reported that getting the amount has reached a point of great necessity as his present health condition has started to deteriorate.

Based on this, his representatives have set up an appeal to the public in a bid to help him get financial assistance. A bank account and a gofundme page has been created in favour of this.

According to LIB, the initial sum he was meant to render as payment exceeded the N15 million mark, but thanks to the goodwill of the health organization where he is receiving treatment in the United States of America, the money was reduced to the current amount.

At the moment, he and his donor are at the stage of evaluation while his doctors make the necessary arrangement for the kidney transplant.

Emmanuel Ugolee who is a highly respected media personality revealed that he has been dealing with a chronic kidney disease for a period of five years. Earlier attempts to raise a sum of N50 million for his previous treatment yielded a positive result, encouraging a message of appreciation from him.

He is now counting on the kind support of well meaning Nigerians both in the country and abroad to see him through what is anticipated to be the final push to help him get better.
