Otedola
Offers To Pay Chukwu's Hospital Bills.
Femi
Otedola, billionaire businessman, has offered to foot the medical bills of
Christian Chukwu, former Super Eagles’ coach. One of Nigeria’s most influential
footballers in history who captained the national team to their first Africa
Cup of Nations title in 1980, Chuckwu is suffering from prostate cancer which
has affected his leg.
He
reportedly needs an additional $50,000 for the prostate operation.
Norbert
Okonkwo, media officer of Enugu Rangers, told TheCable that the Enugu state
government donated N1.5 million for the leg surgery. In the first two days, a
GoFundMe appeal raised $4,305 of the $50,000 needed for further treatment.
Speaking
to TheCable on phone, Otedola said he would foot the entire cost of the
operation as a “token of support to a great Nigerian who served his country to
the best of his ability”.
Otedola
previously settled the medical bills of the veteran actor, Victor Olaotan, who was
at risk of double amputation following a ghastly car accident in 2016.
