Former TV host Emma Ugolee, shared the message below to his contacts on all social media platforms. Please read and be moved to action.
Mandela did not set out to be a hero nor did he have a knack for public admiration or recognition. He simply responded to his circumstances with his set of values and vision.
I am not trying to make a name for myself, I cannot help but commence this struggle for the millions who need me to. By virtue of my circumstances, the game chose me.
I have petitioned the minister of health & the law makers of the house of assembly to consider & ultimately pass a bill on the subsidising of the cost of dialysis.
Why should it cost almost half a million a month to stay alive with kidney disease In Nigeria when it is almost free in poorer countries like Sudan & Namibia? Absolutely free in Ivory Coast.
Senators and the likes we have approached seem interested and willing to push. I will knock as loud, as hard and as long as it takes to get this bill off the bucket list.
But picture this being done without you,now that's a laugh. So please, we need signatures only. 30seconds after you follow the link below and you're done. Target is 500thousand signatures. You need to have seen my new 13year old friend gasping for air needing dialysis but having to wait in his mother's arms for his father to confirm the money was on the way before he got on the machine. Broke my heart.
Please just sign. I beg of you and tell a friend. - Emma Ugolee

Wow this is great. Signed.
I support them on this, what of people who can't afford dialysis?
Of course...signed.
Maybe we'll start with kidney disease. The real problem, however, is that the entire health sector is in in dire need of dialysis! Yes. Take a tour of any public hospital in Nigeria, patients are compelled to pay for any and every service, from tests to treatment. The emergency wards/ facilities are in total distress and accident victims are mainly treated or left to their fate in the cars that bring them to the facilities. Drugs? Only in the countless pharmacies that dot the hospital environment. Where do we start? By the last count, I do not even know the name of the minister of health... It is that bad.

What happened to his marriage? I thought his wife was supposed to give him one of her kidney? Opportunist. ..smh
This Emmanuel sha. His spirit is just unbelievable. I lost an inlaw to this thing and cant believe that anybody who goes through what she went through can have time to think about anybody else. See how it is looking like he is the 1st Nigerian to be suffering kidney failure. Your attitude to your condition in this life is everything. I have signed and so has my late sister's inlaws mother. God Bless him. I hope the government listens to this
