The young man who is into mining promised one of his kidneys to the patient who lost his kidneys at Jimeta clinic. Muhammad Sani told me he got to know the news through NTA newsline and on Facebook which we kept posting. On seeing the news the young man travelled all the way from Kaduna to Yola, his mission is to donate his kidney to the patient whose news he learnt through media only.I nearly shade tears when I discussed with the young Sani.He is presently lodging in a hotel and ready to travel with the patient tomorrow to Kano and donate his kidney if it matches to that of the patient.
