Nigerian rapper cum actor, Ikechukwu Onunaku, has opened up on his current health challenges which have left him bedridden.

Ikechukwu said he is suffering from a herniated disc and acute sciatica, which has paralyzed his whole right side, left him bedridden for a long time and making him use crutches.
When asked if he was still in Nigeria, Ikechukwu disclosed he was not satisfied with his treatment and decided to leave the country for better health care outside Nigeria.
He said: “Baba I get herniated disc and acute sciatica and it paralyzed my whole right side, lumbar 4 and 5. A whole me can you imagine, na bed wen I don dey since.
Baba, if you see me, I’m not the same person you knew before, the guy who does backflips left and right, to waka dey pain me. I no fit waka.”
“I pulled it on the 17th in the morning, and instead of calming down, I went to a show I was booked for, the following day, I couldn’t get out of bed. After two more days of dealing with the pain, I had to rush to Evercare Hospital around 3 a.m.
They put drips in both of my hands with painkillers, which only lasted a little bit, and I no won risk my life with Nigerian healthcare again, so I just got a ticket straight to Yankee.”
