A 13 year old teenager from Gungun Rimi community of Tafawa Balewa local government area of Bauchi State, Musa Muhammad Kabir needs the sum of N1.5 million for spinal cord surgery to survive .

Musa’s father is a health attendant at Gwashe Dispensary in Tafawa Balewa Local Government Area of Bauchi state with no financial capacity to foot his son’s medical bill.

The mother, Jamila Muhammad Kabir told journalists , that her son Musa fell from a mango tree and sustained life threatening injuries that require emergency medical interventions to save him from being permanently paralyzed or sudden death.

Jamila said medical doctors diagnosed her son with spinal cord injuries.

She lamented that son’s recovery seemed bleak with the huge medical  bills piling to save his life.

Musa is currently bedridden at the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Teaching Hospital (ATBUTH)

 Bauchi waiting for a would be kind-hearted individuals or organization for interventions to enable him to access the surgery he is supposed to undergo.

Malama Jamila Kabir added that it took the compassionate support from some kind individuals including medical workers to enable them to conduct some tests, X-ray, have some medical equipment and to access some drugs.

Jamila Kabir regretted that for the past six weeks they have been on admission, her husband (Musa’s father) could not show up because he could not afford the financial obligations.

She therefore appealed to the Tafawa Balewa local government council, Bauchi state government, Senator representing Bauchi-South Senatorial District, Shehu Umar Buba, other spirited individuals and organisations to come to their rescue.

According to her, as a poor family, they struggle to feed and take care of the ailing Musa and they have exhausted everything. She seldomly said they are left with no option than to seek assistance from government, spirited individuals and organizations.

The thirteen year old Musa who is supposed to be in JSS II, with tears flowing down his chins, said his present condition had hindered him from continuing with his studies while his mates are there attending classes.

On seeing Musa, patients whose conditions are of minor health challenges could feel healed as the saying goes “where greater malady prevails the lesser ones are scarce felt”.
