Finally Musician Alariwo Opens Up On How He & His Wife Had Health Issues [Details Inside]

Crossover singer, Alariwo of Africa, real name Rotimi Martins, has been in the news lately for the wrong reasons. The singer and show host was reported to be bedridden with a disease known as Varicocele, which is described in medical terms as an enlargement of veins inside the scrotum. Alariwo however made an appearance over the weekend at the 2015 AFRIMA Awards dispelling reports of his ‘bedridden’ condition. In this interview with Naijapals, Alariwo said ‘People have been speculating about my health lately. Some reports even said I was bedridden. This is not true. I was not bedridden and I have never been. But it is true that I am about to undergo surgery. I am still trying to find the right place to have it done. I have to choose either India, Germany, Israel, England or America. I have been taking some drugs to slow down the pain in my scrotum until I am ready to undergo surgery. All I just need is enough funds to travel abroad and treat it’. ‘I have been going through a lot, these past weeks. My wife has been in the hospital for over one month. She has been down with acute pulmonary embolism. It has been very tough, but God has taken control. The doctors at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital said only a few people could survive the ailment. I am happy that she is one of them. But her treatment has cost me quite a lot of money. I spent an average of N54,000 everyday for about 19 days. Apart from this, I was buying a drug called Clexin at N37,000 for her every week. She received a total of about 96 injections altogether on her shoulder during the period that she was undergoing treatment. And all that while, I didn’t leave her bedside. I was with her in the hospital.’...

Please don't go to India for any treatment, their health facilities aren't better than that of Nigeria.
Nigerian doctors are more better than Indian doctors, you can go to other Countries you mentioned
if you have the money.

Thank God for saving your wife. And thank God you have money to pay, if not all those medical staff will behave as if ur wife doesn't exist. LUTH is a very dangerous hospital for low income people cos their negligence is too much except u have money.
