“I wish to inform you that I was recently diagnosed with fifth-stage renal failure, also known as an end-stage renal disease (kidney failure) occasioned by unmitigated high blood pressure at Lagoon Hospital, Bourdillion Street, Ikoyi, Lagos.
“It is recommended that my only chance to stay alive is that I must undergo hemodialysis twice a week until I can raise the sum of N25 million for a kidney transplant.
“On my own, I have spent about N3.5 million for the one week I spent at the hospital as mentioned earlier.
“The cost of keeping alive is way beyond my means right now. I, therefore, seek your help dear brothers and sisters to surmount this terrible illness.” Oti said donations can be made to the following account details: Account No: 2016631487, Bank: UBA PLC, Name: CHIKE OTI, Phone No: 07065246927
