A cancer patient, Safiyanu Ishaka, is appealing to good Samaritans within and outside the country to help him pay for his cancer surgery.
Safiyanu, a resident of Yelwa in the Shendam Local Government Area of Plateau State, said he had been battling cancer for years but had no money for treatment.
According to Safiyanu, he is also battling kidney stones, which requires money for the treatment to prevent potential kidney failure.

Safiyanu was earlier admitted to Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital in Zaria, Shika, where he was diagnosed with cancer, until he was discharged to raise ₦900,000 for treatment.
He said, “While waiting to raise ₦900,000 for the cancer surgery, I was rushed to Shendam General Hospital, where I was also diagnosed with kidney stones. I was told the medication is expensive. I have been battling these problems for some years.”
Safiyanu, who is currently at home, said he is expected to raise about ₦2m for the treatment but had to leave the hospital due to financial constraints.
“I am soliciting financial assistance from spirited individuals, corporate bodies, and groups. The treatment has exhausted all my resources. Now, I have been asked to pay almost ₦2,000,000 for surgery, which I cannot afford.
“I am appealing to good Samaritans to help me get out of this problem. I can be reached through 07063549711,” he added.
