Dialysis is about 100k plus per session, sometimes you need 3 sessions in a week, minimum wage is 70k. Knowing this fact brought me tears in the hospital cause no hope for the common man.
Recall that Omori, who underwent a failed kidney transplant in 2024, had previously revealed that his brother donated a kidney to save him back then.

Your President has been thoughtful about it. That’s why 80% dialysis subsidies is implemented.
This is where the phrase “bigman big sickness; poor man small sickness” comes from before a poor man gets to the level of needing dialysis they would’ve already died. Very sad reality of not being rich in Nigeria 🥲.
he reason I fight for good governance is me seeing that you can actually get this for free in the country I live. A young Nigerian guy was doing this for almost 4years until he had his kidney replaced and all this was done for free, like he did not pay a dime. If that young man was living in Nigeria, he would have been gone and buried.
n 2017, I was planning to write exams to start my residency in Nigeria. A friend asked me ‘even as a doctor, if you or any of your family members have kidney failure or cancer, can you get treatment without begging?’ That’s when I decided to japa.
