Eedris Abdulkareem, a rapper from Nigeria, received a kidney transplant yesterday.
The artist was recently diagnosed with renal failure and has since started receiving dialysis.
According to prior reports, the rapper’s wife Yetunde is planning to give one of her kidneys to him.
Last week, Abdulkareem said that he had approved the creation of a GoFundMe after being persuaded by his admirers and friends.
“However, based on the requests I have been receiving on the need for GoFundMe activities, I want to assure everyone that the activity is now on. Just click on my Instagram website for the gofundme link. I am feeling better, strong and agile in body and soul, while awaiting the doctors summons for the surgery procedures scheduled for anytime from now. Prayers, faith and staunch belief in God’s awesome works drives me.”
In comparison to its goal of £48,000, the fundraising campaign has so far raised £4,329 (N2.2 million) from 167 donors.
Eedris, a seasoned rapper, was a part of the hip-hop crew “The Remedies” from 1997 until their dissolution in 2002.
As a solo musician, the rapper has established a solid name for himself in the music industry.
