The Rivers state governor, Rotimi Amaechi has come to the aid of
ailing music producer, Okungbowa Jezreel Babatunde aka OJB who is
currently battling with kidney problem.
The governor has promised to support OJB with fifteen million naira (N15M) needed for the kidney transplant.
This was disclosed by the head of the OJB fund raising, NoMoreloss
via his twitter handle. “Officials of the government reached out to us
this evening, (Wednesday, June 3) promising to donate a $100,000. The
presentation, they say, will be made on Friday (June 5). We are indeed
grateful to the Governor and the people of Rivers State. Now we can
finally have that surgical procedure.”
An extremely excited NoMoreloss said, “We also appreciate the kind
hearts of Nigerians who have made donations and those that supported us
with prayers. We had a place in mind initially, but recently, there have
been several suggestions from other people. We would be having a
meeting by this weekend with all the concerned parties to decide which
of the options is best. The donor is a family member, but for some
reason, we do not wish to disclose the identity. All that matters is for
him to have a successful operation.”
He also added that “I guess it is no longer SaveOJB abi? So now I think it should be celebrateOJB hmmm?”
