Popular comic actor Bamidele Tope Saint, widely known as Okemesi, is in a coma following complications from medication administered at a hospital.
Fellow actor Jeff Owolewa disclosed the situation on Instagram, explaining that Okemesi was readmitted after experiencing adverse reactions to drugs.
He said Okemesi was discharged just last week but his condition deteriorated which necessitated a return to medical care.
Owolewa added that several hospitals initially turned him away before he was admitted back to the private facility that first treated him.
He said, “The actor is currently on oxygen support, with reports indicating that his breathing is gradually improving.”
Okemesi had recently moved into a new apartment provided by the public, following a fundraising appeal to assist him with his illness and previous struggles with homelessness.
Narrating the current situation, Jeff said, “Guys, Okemesi has been hospitalised again. He was sleeping all through Saturday and Sunday without having much appetite for food due to complications from the drugs that were given to him from the hospital when he was discharged last week.
“I rushed to his house very early on Monday to take him to hospital. He was rejected in different hospitals including a government hospital in Igodo, the doctor refused to attend to him saying there’s no bed space. I have to take him back to the first private hospital that started his treatment. So they admitted him, and stabilised him.
Jeff concluded by urging Nigerians to pray for Okemesi’s recovery and is appealing for financial assistance to cover his treatment costs.
“His breathing is improving. So, he has been in coma since Monday morning. They have placed him on oxygen. We’re all praying that he gets back on track”, he added.
