A mother of three, Mariam Akinpelu, who was diagnosed with a kidney-related ailment, has cried out for financial assistance for treatment.
The 39-year-old woman said she has lost her life savings and business to the life-threatening ailment.
She said: ‘’I was diagnosed with kidney failure last December at the University Teaching Hospital Ibadan and since then I’ve started the weekly renal dialysis which costs about N90,000 every week, sometimes twice a week.
‘’My husband and the family have been rallying around for the funds so the treatment could continue. My husband’s business has run down due to this. For a month now these assistances have ceased and my condition is becoming worse, enquiries about going for a transplant stated that we’ll need around N25m for a transplant abroad.
She added: ‘’I hereby seek financial assistance from the general public to at least continue with the dialysis and treatments. Please help me to have a life, so I can live to take care of my little children, God will also be available for you all in your time of need. No amount is small to assist me, below are my husband’s account details: Account No: 3040990920. First Bank. Name: Akinpelu Oyeyinka.’’
