‘Why I Want To Donate My Kidney To Save Sonia Ekweremadu’ – Skitmaker

The prayers of Sonia Ekweremadu, daughter of former Deputy President of the Senate, Ike Ekweremadu, for a lifeline may have been answered.

Sonia Ekweremadu had trended in social media recently, requesting for help from well-meaning Nigerians for the donation of a kidney to stay alive.

This followed her being diagnosed with FSGS Nephrotic Syndrome, a rare kidney disease,.

Now, a Nigerian skit maker, 24-year-old, Annastasia Michael Olamma, has answered her prayers.

Olamma indicted her willingness to donate one of her kidneys just to prove a point that women can help women, and also to enable Sonia stay alive, so long as: one, if their kidneys match, and if her family would not be opposed to the idea.

She made the offer after Sonia Ekweremadu announced that she needed a kidney donor to stay alive.
Recall that Sonia’s parents were arrested in the United Kingdom and charged by the UK Metropolitan Police with conspiracy to facilitate the travel of another person for organ harvesting.

Writing on her facebook, Olamma said: “I (Annastasia Michael Olamma) want to donate one of my kidneys to Sonia Ekweremadu to save her life. I have made up my mind to do this to prove women can help women.

“If any of her relatives, mum, dad, and siblings cannot give out their kidneys to save their bloodline, then I will donate my own to save Sonia and I demand nothing in return. I pray it matches with her own.”

“Yes, my family members are against it. I expected that initially because when my dad got to know about it, he wasn’t cool with the idea. He was like ‘you want to go and kill yourself?’ My family, I know this thing might hurt you people but please I am begging you… I wish to save somebody’s life. Pray for me so that nothing will happen to me. Pray for me so that the whole thing will go successfully,” she has reportedly said.
