For the past few days, I've been seeing feeds, tweets and news on social media about an ex student of Bowen who needs financial help to save her from a medical condition.
Her name is Lulu Egbunike, she works with Etisalat Call Centre, she's been diagnosed with recurrent Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, which is a form of cancer of the blood. She is currently receiving treatment in Nigeria but needs to be flown to India for urgent medical treatment. Statistics have shown that over 80% of patients diagnosed with this disease are cured if they receive the right treatment on time. We believe that with our collective donations, we will be giving Lulu a chance to fight this disease. She is young,bright, always full of life and smiles with so much to offer. The sum of $22, 299.14 ( N3,645,909.39 @$163.5) is needed for her medical bills and travels.
I believe with the help of the school, we (students) can all help raise a reasonable amount of the total cash needed, this is a kind of tap on the bbsf exco's shoulder to make sure the chaplains looks into this case and see if we can make a special offering in chapel for at least a week, I believe the amount raised will help Lulu out of this condition.
Excos, the move is ours now.........
