Their 7-year-old son, Oluwatombo, is in dire need of neuro
surgery at a specialist hospital in India.
His mother, Stella, a petty trader, said Oluwatombo was one-year-
old when it was discovered he had malignant tumour of the ear
accompanied by migraine.
She said: “We just noticed that he had severe pains in his left ear as
a result of swollen eardrum, which has been dangling and could not
be exposed.
Mrs. Ifedayo, who accompanied her son to The Nation office in
Akure, said the family sought treatment at the Obafemi Awolowo
University Teaching Hospital (OAUTH), Ile-Ife.
She said: “He was operated upon but thereafter his condition
became critical .
We moved to another hospital in Lagos from where we were
referred to a specialist hospital in India.”
A letter through the Centre for Rehabilitation of Exceptional
Persons (CREP) said the treatment would cost from $13000 to
$18000, excluding ticket fare, feeding, accommodation and
other expenses.
According to the letter, the final bill would be decided on
physical examination.
