Abiba Oyetunji is a guy who has inspired Nigerians to raise almost N20 million for him after the actress Biola Adebayo made a heartfelt plea on her podcast, Talk to B.
During Wednesdayâs episode, Abiba shared his harrowing journey with chronic kidney disease (CKD). âI am a CKD patient,â he revealed, recounting the moment he was rushed to the hospital in an ambulance.
Struggling to understand his fate, Abiba questioned, âMe, kidney? I donât eat outside, I donât smoke, so whatâŠâ
The ailment, compounded by his sickle cell condition, has left him unable to urinate naturally. âI urinate through dialysis,â he explained, showing a tube near his shoulder.
Abiba also recounted the severe financial and personal losses he endured following his diagnosis. âArmed robbers came to the house⊠packed all our phones and everything,â he said.
His ordeal continued with the loss of his home, vehicles, and savings. âMy house gone. First car gone, second car gone, third car gone, all the savings gone,â he narrated.
