A kidney transplant patient, Sarah Akoji from Ankpa Local Government Area of Kogi State, has found compassion in seven Nigerians who have volunteered to donate their kidneys to her.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Sarah was diagnosed of kidney problem and needed a transplant, as announced on the popular Brekete family radio programme.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ahmed Isa, anchor of the programme popularly called ordinary president, revealed Sarah\u2019s situation to his guests.<\/span><\/p>\n

He also revealed to guests that the patient was funded with N500,000 on Tuesday for dialysis which she did last in November 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n

On Tuesday, the presenter solicited for volunteers to donate a kidney to Sarah.<\/span><\/p>\n

The following day, Wednesday, the volunteers came up offering their kidneys in compassion for Sarah.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the volunteers, Andrew Yakuba is an indigene of Borno State whose parents were slaughtered by terrorist group Boko Haram in a Borno farm.<\/span><\/p>\n

Narrating his story, Yakubu said: \u201cMy parents are all dead. They died in the farm during a Boko Haram attack in 2012. That was what brought me to Abuja and I\u2019m staying here in an Internally Displaced People (IDP) camp”<\/span><\/p>\n

The other volunteers are Philip Waya, a Pastor, Felix Telimo, Olutosin Adedayo, Abbas Mohammed, Emmanuel Eze and Joy Ameh.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A kidney transplant
