N250,000 may not be a challenge to some Nigerians, who have the means, but that is the exact amount standing between a young female school girl, Taiwo Ogunkunle and her health.
Taiwo Ogunkunle
She requires that for plastic surgery after being diagnosed. The 13-year old student of a Junior Secondary School of Akintola Community High School, Adamasingba in Ibadan has been bed ridden at the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan since February 14, this year after sustaining an injury when she fell on her way from the school.
To her parents, Peter Ogunkunle (a carpenter) and Temitayo Ogunkunle (a weaver) of Abebi area of Adamasingba, raising the amount is like squeezing water from the rock and this has made them to be running from pillar to post. It was gathered that Taiwo had a slight fall with an un-noticeable wound which she did not even report to her mother and which later turned out to be a disease diagnosed as Chronic Osteomylitis at the UCH. In the hospital card marked 1271700 , Taiwo is awaiting decortications and flap cover surgery. Perhaps, the treatment could have been done before now, but, her parents were helpless as they could not raise the money.
God go help her
