A sickle cell patient, Catherine Onofua seeks Nigerians support to raise N10million for kidney transplant.

Three years ago, Onofua, who is also a single mother of two children was diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD).

Being a petty trader, she could not afford the weekly dialysis and blood transfusions required to keep her alive. With the help of her immediate family, she was able to undergo several dialysis and blood transfusions at the General Hospital, Odan, till they ran out of funds.

Her Church, Catholic Church of Annunciation, Ajah, through the society of St. Vincent De Paul took up the support by funding the dialysis and blood transfusions whilst trying to raise N10million for kidney transplant for Catherine.
