A Third year medical student, Olaoluwa Oluwamuyiwa,
(Dr Lulu) who is down with renal failure has appealed to Nigerians to
help save his life.
Born on February 16, 1988, 28-year old Oluwamuyiwa
hails from Ondo State from a small family of four, comprising his
parents, himself and his younger sister.
Dr Lulu, as he is fondly called, began to
experience difficulties in pursuit of his childhood dream to become a
medical doctor in 2000 when his father lost his job. Shortly after,
he had a ghastly accident that made him unconscious for several months.
He has been unable to fully use his legs well till date.
Undeterred by the challenge, Dr Lulu travelled to
Ukraine to study medicine, but had to abandon the study owing to
financial difficulty.
He came back to Nigeria. But refusing to give up on
his dream, he went to China after some years to study medicine again.
He is currently in his third year.
However, Dr Lulu now faces a major challenge as he
is suffering from renal failure. He is currently undergoing dialysis
pending the time he will be able to raise the N7m required
for kidney transplant.
His family has appealed for assistance from good
spirited Nigerians and corporate organizations to help raise the funds.
He undergoes three dialysis sessions every week at the cost
of N60,000, with his friends and family helping him run around to raise
the fees to ensure he lives.
