Renowned music video director TG Omori, known for his work with artists like Wizkid, Burna Boy, and Olamide, has revealed a significant health challenge. In a heartfelt message, Omori shared that he recently experienced a failed kidney transplant at St. Nicholas Hospital, Lagos, a year after his initial kidney failure diagnosis.
Omori, who has been a prominent figure in the music industry since 2018, has directed numerous high-profile music videos and won accolades such as the City People Entertainment Award for Video Director of the Year. Despite his success, he now faces a prolonged battle with kidney disease, requiring ongoing dialysis treatment.
Dialysis in Nigeria costs approximately 80,000 Naira per session, amounting to roughly 1.5 to 2 million Naira per month, a financial burden that extends beyond the cost of the treatment itself, including medication and other related expenses. This contrasts sharply with the costs of private dialysis abroad, which can be as high as Ł300 per session in the UK.
Omori’s situation underscores the severe financial and emotional strain of managing kidney failure. Supporters and fans are urged to keep him in their thoughts and prayers as he continues his treatment. The road ahead is expected to be challenging, and the need for additional financial support and well-wishes remains critical.
In light of this, those affected by kidney disease or with loved ones in similar situations are encouraged to seek medical advice and consider preventive measures to mitigate the risk of kidney failure.
