Ailing Ifeanyi Raphael
A 27-year-old graduate with a First Class degree in Business Administration from Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, formerly Anambra State University, Igbariam Chukuezechukwu Ifeanyi Raphael, is urgently pleading for N45 million for a kidney transplant.
He had been diagnosed with kidney failure and already spent N18 million on tests and dialysis.
With both kidneys now failing, a transplant is his only option.
According to his medical report, Ezechukwu, a native of Umuchi, Ekwulobia in Aguata Local Council of Anambra State, needs immediate transplantation to save his life.
Ezechukwu, while speaking from his residence at 14, Ezendu Street, off Mercedes Avenue, Nkpor-Agu, Idemili North Local Council, is appealing for help from the public to assist him in this critical time.
His mother, Nwakaego Stella Ezechukwu, shared the family’s financial struggles, having already exhausted resources on medical expenses for her late husband.
With the urgent need for a kidney transplant within a month, the family is reaching out to well-meaning individuals, as well as the charitable organisations, for assistance.
The estimated cost for the transplant is N45 million. For those willing to help, the family can be contacted on telephone number 08068282639, and donations can also be made to their Access Bank account number: 0074363228 under the name Stella Nwakaego Ezechukwu. (The Guardian)
