Kehinde Ugbede-Egbeyemi, a 48-year-old woman battling kidney disease, is appealing to Nigerians for financial assistance totaling N20 million for a kidney transplant.

Since 2018, shortly after her marriage, Ugbede-Egbeyemi has been dealing with kidney failure. She has sold all her possessions to raise funds for the transplant, as the weekly dialysis has drained her finances.

She recounted her struggle, stating, "The disease started two months after I got married in February 2018, and it has cost me over N40 million so far. I first paid N10 million in 2018 for the transplant, but because there was no donor, we could not carry out the procedure."

Her medical report from Zenith Medical and Kidney Centre, Abuja, dated February 2018, revealed that she was managed with a twice-weekly haemodialysis schedule, among other treatments, and that a kidney transplant was the best treatment option.

The hospital estimated the overall cost of the transplant to be about N22 million, and she is appealing for donations to her FCMB account: 4250620013, Egbeyemi Kehinde Oluwatoyin. She can also be reached at 08035903948.
