It’s one year today that me and my lovely and ever dependable better half, Yetunde Sekinat, went under the knife at St. Nicholas Hospital Lagos, as I battled to save my life from kidney failure with my amiable wife stepping in as my life saving donor.

So, in my honoured tradition as a loyal, compassionate, appreciative and steadfast person, I want to use this opportunity to thank and appreciate everyone who played a role, no matter how infinitesimal, remote or unseen during my protracted health ordeal!

And for the numerous prayers, intercessions, moral and financial assistance and support extended to me, I and my family will be forever grateful.

To my life saver and better half, Olori Abdul, and my lovely children I Own Everything!
