Veteran Nigerian rapper, Eedris AbdulKareem, has successfully undergone his kidney transplant in Lagos State, Punch Metro reports.
This was disclosed in a statement signed and released by his colleague and associate, Myke Pam, on behalf of the rapper’s management, Lakreem Entertainment Inc.
Punch Metro reported that the ‘Nigeria Jaga Jaga’ crooner sought the support of Nigerians after he suffered kidney failure about two months ago and was billed for a transplant in a hospital in Lagos.
However, in a Facebook post on Monday, Pam, also thanked everyone who supported the singer during the health crisis.
The statement read: “It is with unspeakable joy and undiluted Thanksgiving that the management of Lakreem Entertainment officially releases the news of the successful kidney transplant surgery on Nigerian Hip Hop Czar and activist Eedris Abdulkareem, and his most gracious donor – his lovingly dedicated wife YT, some hours ago.
“Our unalloyed thanks and appreciation goes out to all well-meaning Nigerians, both at home and in the diaspora, and all his fans from across the globe who prayed for, cared for, reached out to and supported this wonderful couple during this health crisis. May your individual and collective wells never run dry.
“As the recuperation and healing process begins for both of them, with the best that science can offer, under the ever benevolent gaze of the Almighty God, surrounded by the love and care of family, we ask that the prayers and support be sustained as they gradually get back on their feet again.
“In conclusion, we must emphasize the fact that Nigerians are indeed the peak of the pack when the need arises. We as a People are simply awesome, all that we need is good and purposeful governance. Indeed, our God is good…all the time!”
