Ronke Ojo Oshodi Oke Battles Kidney Disease, Loses Half Body Weight

Fans of veteran Yoruba actress Ronke Ojo, also known as Oshodi Oke, have expressed concern for her health as she has reportedly lost half her body weight. The actress revealed in a viral video that surfaced in December 2022 that she was diagnosed with kidney failure. She added that a certain pastor healed her using holy water.

According to the actress, she did dialysis at St. Nicholas hospital for a while before she came across the pastor who gave her holy water. The pastor reportedly said that God gave him the instruction to give her the holy water to cure her illness.

Oshodi Oke further revealed that she had been admitted to St. Nicholas hospital in Lagos before then and was receiving drip for nine days. It got to a point where her veins were no longer visible, and they had to pass the fluid tubes through her upper thigh.

The grateful actress also revealed that her doctor didn’t do the dialysis anymore because there was no need for it as God had healed her through the holy water.

The actress’s health condition has become a growing concern for her fans around the world. They have taken to social media to express their support and well-wishes for her. Some have also called on the Nigerian government and private healthcare institutions to provide better healthcare for citizens, especially those with life-threatening illnesses like kidney failure.
