Following the successful kidney transplant between Nigerian Hip Hop artiste, Eedris Abdulkareem and his wife, Yetunde, both parties are now recuperating.

This was revealed in a statement released on behalf of Eedris and his management — Lakreem Entertainment Inc. and signed by Myke Pamon.

Eedris thanked all well-meaning Nigerians, both at home and in the diaspora who prayed and reached out to the couple during their health crisis.

“It is with unspeakable joy and undiluted thanksgiving that the management of Lakreem Entertainment officially releases the news of the successful kidney transplant surgery on Nigerian Hip Hop Czar and activist Eedris Abdulkareem, and his most gracious donor – his lovingly dedicated wife YT, some hours ago, the statement reads.

“Our unalloyed thanks and appreciation go out to all well-meaning Nigerians, both at home and in the diaspora, and all his fans from across the globe who prayed for, cared for, reached out to and supported this wonderful couple during this health crisis. May your individual and collective wells never run dry.

“As the recuperation and healing process begins for both of them, with the best that science can offer, under the ever benevolent gaze of the Almighty God, surrounded by the love and care of family, we ask that the prayers and support be sustained as they gradually get back on their feet again.

“In conclusion, we must emphasise the fact that Nigerians are indeed at the peak of the pack when the need arises. We as a People are simply awesome; all that we need is good and purposeful governance. Indeed, our God is good…all the time! God bless us all”

It would be recalled that in July, the rapper announced he has been diagnosed with kidney failure in Lagos, Nigeria.

According to his management, the date for the transplant surgery was fixed at the end of July, noting that all arrangements and tests have been concluded, including certifying the compatibility status of the gracious donor, his wife, Yetunde.
