Okiki was born in May 11 2010 without more than half of her skull. A rare medical condition called Congenital Cranial Deficiency.
All of the hospitals visited by their organisation home and abroad could not offer a cure or lacked the facilities and man power except for the John Hopkins hospital in Maryland, Baltimore USA where the director of Paediatrics Dr Ben Carson is the first doctor to handle an issue like this ever, only then it was on a conjoined twins joined at their heads (the Binder twins). Please continue...
When GIPLC became involved in Okiki's case and after due consultations, inquiries and findings as to how much it will cost to have Okiki treated, they were able to raise within the space of 72 hours the sum of $234,000 (two hundred and thirty four thousand USD) or N37,000,000 (thirty seven million naira)and deposited the complete sum to the John Hopkins Medical which was their required deposit to commence the series of surgery on Okiki. She will now leave Nigeria in the company of her parents for the USA by April 2013.
Okiki is not the first child GIPLC has sponsored overseas for Medical attention. They have for a period of six years raised over N120,000,000 (one hundred and twenty million naira) for children with debilitating medical condition. (See it here - www.giplc.org)
Okiki's is special because no NGO in the history of Nigeria has accomplished this feat, to raise the sum of N37,000,000 for a single individual!
GIPLC World Press Conference comes up at Transcop Hilton in Abuja on the 26th of March 2013.

How humane of them... Thank God for organisations like this. Wishing the baby a successful operation.
Whao.....m so impressed n may the lord God bless all the staffs of GIPLC. May they never lack favour from the members of the society n the world.
God bless this organisation and all its sponsors. Organisations like this should be celebrated
it's only God that will bless them.I have nothing more to say.The affluent ones in nigeria should borrow a leaf from this and always help when called upon.
wishing the darling baby a successful surgery.
May God continue to give them the grace to continue
Even if they treat her,she can never be normal,but i pray it will never happen.hmm what a petty.
God Bless that NGO!
Awwwwww,this really got me thinkin, may God continually bless d NGO,nd may d surgeries b successful...it's well wit ur Spirit,body nd soul Okikijesu

Linda, your english can make me shit myself. That being said;
Hope the child survives, I hate children suffering.
awww bless I pray for a successful operation for this child, how amazing as to how rapid her donation was...am still hoping for my dad's transplant because we do not have the exposure and right channel to raise the funds he can hardly dialyse nowadays as we are running out of what we have saved its really hard. please Linda do not forget to publish his write up I emailed to you. I know your blog is widely read and can help us out God bless you (daughter of the retired kidney failure engineer)
May God bless this GIPLC people ooh, they are really incredible
Wow, may God bless them. This is awesome work. Please let us know how we can donate to the organization as some us would like to be part of the good work they are doing.
God bless them more!
Wow! I'm touched. I hope to have my own NGO someday, so I can help homeless and sick children. Most of these other NGOs are just liars, looking for how to loot. I've worked in one that is owned by a very popular lady, and I was more than dissappointed by some of the lies she was telling. May God bless these people for doing what they are doing.
God bless them more!
OH MY GOD!!! the end is near..
God will show his children favour and not allow us to see evil...amen
Wow! God bless the NGO. I'm just speechless but I pray their labour of love will never be in vain, while Okikijesu will live to be a shining light. Amen!

Madam Linda, a mail was sent out to you about a Crystal Nonye Mbanugo who has cancer of the brain and needs surgery ASAP but no fund. You haven't publicized it yet y? Cos she's not Genevive or Kim? The fact is you don't get to choose who to help or not to help. And really I'm disappointed in u cos u know very well her help could come from your blog. Too bad.
wow ,,,pray God heals him succesfully
God bless him
Heyaa, God bless them, and heal the baby

Hmmm....Lord God Almighty U're UNQUESTIONABLE!
He dat sitteth in Heaven and does wat pleases him on earth; U alone are worthy of all Praises, Worship, Glory, Honour and all adorations now and forever n ever!
KABIOSI OLODUMARE! Hmmm....what a great child!
wow! Nice. God will take over the treatment and prove Himself faithful!
My dear Linda, I was really touched by this story. I am so thankful and grateful to God on behalf of OkikiJesu and her parents. I also use this opportunity to thank all the people that are involved with this NGO. As you have shown TRUE LOVE, may you and your families never lack anything.
OkikiJesu, and parents, travel well. The Lord will be with you all. Linda you are doing an amazing job. Keep it up Sis:-)
Oh this is so wonderful. God Bless GIPLC!
I pray the good Lord brings them safely. May God enrich this NGO Amen. Am a pediatric nurse at Hopkins and can say she will be in good hands.
May God bless you GIPLC and may you never lack help in ur time of need
Woooow!!!! This is what I call a milestone achievement. Thanks GIPLC. Bravo to you.
Kiki you have come to stay on earth.
Beautiful. Awesome.
Chantella.
I just hate it wen u pple condemn unnecessarily. Y nt create ur own blog for d child or beta still publicize it on d media if u rili care dt much.Mcheew
God bless GIPLC and guide the medical team at Hopkins.
Are You On Fakebook?
Wow,God bless every one involved (directly and indirectly)in d contribution. Safe trip and best of luck OkikiJesu. I know u will be a living testimony dear. Linda weldone
@ Prittchy Abj: you don't get to criticise cos you can't be too sure why linda has not put up d story. Could be from trying to confirm the authenticity or it could stem from d fact that maybe she has not gotten the name. Saying its becos the ailing lady isn't kim or genevieve is too low. Please don't be too quick to judge. Also Linda, like miss prittchy said, help for the ailing lady could and can come from you. Help her by publishing the story as soon as you can.
That said, I thank God that there are still people & organisations in nigeria that can come to peoples aid when needed. For the people running the NGO, God bless & strengthen you. And for the contributors, may you all never lack In Jesus Name.
May God almighty bless them, and may they continue to prosper in all they do in jesus name! And this adorable gift from God.....i pray God's healing be upon u, and u come back in good health in jesus name....pls linda...how do one donate to this organization

@ priitichy aby, young lady shut your mouth. Linda Ikeji owes you nothing. She reserves the right to post stories that have been authenticated or not. Genevieve or Kim, how insensitive of you,with your attitude I sure as hell wouldn't be donating to your friend..... Tooth fairy
Is well. I have a 7months baby who is been diagonised of almost same issue(hydraenecphaly).God will strengthen and bless every one that has contributed.
Tnk u God for dt NGO,baby okiki u r healed in Jesus name,AMEN!!
May the Good Lord bless u guys greatly 4 ur generosity and care. Wishin baby Okiki a successful operation ahead.
God bless
A heart felt amen! May the baby live to be a shining light
Kudos 2 dem, may d lord bless dem always
You are the one that's heartless.
This jus proves our awesome our God is.I stand in awe of you O Lord!
Wow that is remarkable, but honestly i dont know what kind of surgery they want to perform in this case, and what the quality of life will be. If she won't be living in the US, life will be hard on a day to day basis bcos she probably needs to have machines attached to her all the time. Especially since she's already 3 yrs before anything is being done, not sure how or in what condition she is in already.
God bless d NGO... Waow!
Mr nuhu fulani may God continue to bless u n open the windows of heaven.
God bless you Nuhu Kwajafa for all the work you do. I remember when you started and now you have touched so many young lives. God will certainly not forget your labour of love.
God bless them (NGO), the parents and particularly Okiki. Ben Carson, may god bless you and particularly your hands.
Amen Our prayers are with you all
God will heal her
But your dad earns 50million in 2months so why not donate to end the suffering?? Poor wanker
Replier shut up!! She obviously chose linda cuz she's popular!! .. Ewu
The spirit of God will heal u now&4eva and bless dose who pray and provide 4 ur bills.
God bless
Go apple
Good on the part if this organisation. I am impressed. Where are all those thieves that had stolen nigeria's money? Obasanjo could not fund the operation to help this precious gift from God, instead the stupid man took african politically empowered robbers to UK to launch some stupid foundation. Jona dey there dey drink ogogoro like water, in the same Abujah he did nothing, naa nollywood actors he dey promise 3 billion naira.. Make una all no worry, God is on his throne watching. He'll pay everyone back soon.
Every one that contributed to thus fund shall be blessed In Jesus Name.. Amen
Good feat by the NGO. Atleast they did what most of our Private-Jet Pastors & their fraudulent Churches will be reluctant to do, since fueling their Lavish lifestyles is more important to them than carrying out full charity work which is meant to be the main purpose be their Ministry in spreading the Gospel...Once again, May God bless the NGO & its team.
*Just as God can raise up stones to worship him if we don't, so can He send a provider when our Political & Religious Leaders continously exhibit traits of negligence*
@willadebo
Excellent job done by the NGO, may GOD continue to strengthen them...Amin
May God bless all the members of GIPL. Good to know we still have such people in our midst.
God bless them for the good work
They brought this kid to Yaw's show last year..God bless those people..
Great move...God bless tha NGO
It's Baltimore, Maryland not the other way Linda.
thanks nice and awesome..........
US is very beautiful. Lots of tourist places.
Maybe the US is naive or arrogant enough to think people will just visit because we have great places to see.
May God bless the people behide the NGO and also save the girl's life.
It is a pity that the world has not seen what GIPLC is doing in USA looting the fund meant for the upkeep of OKIKIJESU and her parents. Nuhu Fulani Kwajafa and Haruna Hua (GIPLC) are treating OKIKIJESU family like slaves in USA (the 2 of them followed OKIKI to USA). They put them in a Home, while a good Nigerian payed $10,000.00 for their rent and N10m given by the House of Rep, etc. Prayed that GIPLC will not destroy what they have built cos of greed.
Linda,you need to RE-WRITE your story on the celebrated NGO .The parents of Okikijesu are been treated like slaves here in the US.Try and get in touch with the parents of the girl and they will tell you more.

We the Nigerians should always learn from the way of life of the whites because if they think and behave like us Okikijesu would have long been forgotten,havng gone thru condemnations,negligence,segregation,deprivation and ejection from the hands of the Ibadan populace.May God 4give us all.The so-called rich people are just after themselves and their family so selfish and greedy may God 4give all of u.As for GIPLC may God continue to take u to greater heights and pay special attention to ur lives in all ramifications.amen.As for okikijesu God in his infinite powers will use the doctors mightily 4 ur healing to cause anoda great feat in the medical field cos u're d source of blessings to showcase ur parents and siblings to the whole world
