LIB exclusive: Vast of Bracket diagnosed with cancer of the blood

Such a sad story to report but it will definitely end well in Jesus name...Amen. Nwanchukwu Ozioko, popularly known as Vast from the popular singing group, Bracket, has been diagnosed with Lymphoma, a type of cancer of the blood. (Please Google it)

The singer was diagnosed in February this year after suffering serious body pains, headaches, non stop coughing, loss of weight and weakness while in Paris for a show. He flew to London where a test conducted determined he had cancer. Vast has been receiving treatment at the Wellington Hospital in the UK since February and I hear he's responding very well to treatment. He has undergone 4 cycles of chemotherapy with each cycle costing about N1.4million. He will do a few more before returning to Nigeria next month.

The sad part I hear from sources close to the singer is that he actually went to a hospital in Nigeria late last year when he started losing weight and feeling weak. They conducted a test on him but it took them forever to come back with the test result. Over three months actually. By then the cancer had spread to his liver. But thankfully he's getting better and will return home soon. Please say a prayer for him. More photos after the cut...

That is really very sad. I wish him a speedy recovery. GEJ & d members of his 'oligarch' should do something concrete about our healthcare system-i understand that the government can't do everything, but at least they can create an enabling environment for those in the healthcare sector to dispense proper, prompt & affordable healthcare to the mass populace.

Our medical system has failed us and is continually failing us. Every fever, "ah malaria" next on top of their agenda "na typhoid." then they treat people with heart attack for malaria even (my experience).
If its Hodgkin's lymphoma which is more common then the prognosis is not so bad depending on the stage. Chemotherapy usually controls Hodgkin's.

Nigerian doctors just keep acting like they never went through medical school,and please let no one come on here and tell me how they don't have standard equipment in hospitals in Nigeria because if you take a good history from the patient,and a good physical exam,you will almost always make a right diagnosis. God help Nigeria.
