Reports reaching The Eagle Online indicate that popular Nigerian artiste cum producer, Babatunde Okungbowa better known as OJB Jezreel, is presently at the Lagos State General Hospital on admission due to relapse of his kidney ailment. Recall OJB, made headlines in 2013 when he suffered kidney failure and needed the public to help him raise N16 million so that he could do a transplant in India.
It was his first wife among his three wives that donated her kidney to him.
Now there are fears that the ailment has resurfaced.
The medical experts who attended to OJB at the Lagos Hospital were said to be shocked at the sudden relapse despite last year’s successful kidney transplant.
They chided him for not going back to India for post-surgery check-ups as specified by the team of Indian doctors in the medical report given to him.
One of his wives, Korede, who was called to comment on the latest development declined to talk on the issue.
According to Korede, I don’t want to say anything about it unless he talks about it himself because he has warned me not to say anything about the issue.
OJB was said to be doing fine and was even planning to re-launch his music career until the latest development.
