Popular Nigerian music producer and singer, Babatunde Okungbowa
(OJB) whom good Samaritans raised money for a few years for a successful kidney implant, is back to the hospital bed.
International magazine says he is on admission at the General
Hospital, Lagos following a relapse of his kidney ailment.
A source at the hospital who spoke to the magazine said
“The medical experts who attended to OJB at the Lagos Hospital were
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”.
When contacted, his third wife, Korede said
“I don’t want to say anything about it unless he talks about it himself.
Have you called him? Because I have not seen the story and he has even
warned me about it. So please I don’t want to have anything to do with
it unless he talks about it himself. He warned me and I have to respect
and obey my husband” she said
His first wife, Mabel donated one of her kidneys to him last year and he
was believed to be doing well until this recent development.
