Renowned video director TG Omori has taken to social media to share a deeply personal and painful experience with his followers. In a late-night post on X, the popular director revealed that he recently underwent a kidney transplant after his only brother donated one of his kidneys to save his life.
Yesterday my only brother gave me one of his kidney so I could live again.

The news sparked a wave of reactions across Nigeria. While many offered heartfelt prayers and well-wishes, others criticized Omori, suggesting his smoking habit might have contributed to his kidney issues.
In a separate Instagram story, Omori posted a photo from his hospital bed, wearing an oxygen mask, with the poignant caption, "Keep my spirit alive."
On August 28th, Omori returned to X to provide an update on his health, writing, "One year after my kidney crashed, I just had a failed transplant at St. Nicholas Lagos. Pray for me."

This revelation hints that Omori has been battling kidney problems for over a year. A closer look at his X profile reveals a post from December 19th, 2023, where he mentioned that fake drinks had left him hospitalized for most of that year.
Our thoughts and prayers are with TG Omori and his family during this challenging time.
Went into this theater 3times, wasn’t just destined to die today.
