Nollywood
actress Adesua Etomi’s husband, musician Olubankole Wellington aka Banky W has
revealed how he overcame his battle with cancer before his wedding.
The EME
boss, who was just made the ambassador for Pink Oak Trust, said God and
availability of sufficient funds saw him through his battle with the killer
disease.
His words:
“Many people
know about my own battles with cancer. I’m forever grateful to God that I am
alive and well, and that I was able to fund the treatment I needed.
Unfortunately,
over 90,000 Nigerians die every year due to cancer. This is simply because they
can’t afford to fight it. Treatment is expensive and so many people die because
they’re just unable to pay for surgery, pills, chemo etc.
That has to
change, and the more of us that contribute, the better. It would be great if
one person donated N100 million. But it would be just as great, and even more
powerful, if one million people gave N100 each.”
