TG Omori Reveals Failed Kidney Transplant After Brother’s Donation
Award-winning cinematographer and music producer ThankGod Omori, popularly known as TG Omori, has opened up about experiencing a failed kidney transplant despite his brother’s selfless donation.
Omori shared this news on Wednesday, shortly after revealing he was going through a tough time and asking Nigerians to pray for him.
In a heartfelt message, Omori wrote, “One year after my kidney crashed, I just had a failed transplant at St Nicholas Hospital Lagos. Pray for me.”
