TG Omori battles kidney failure, undergoes transplant after consuming fake drinks at nightclubs

Nigerian music video director ThankGod Omori Jesam, known professionally as TG Omori or Boy Director, is battling kidney failure after consuming fake drinks at nightclubs last December, which led to a recent kidney transplant.

On Tuesday, Omori revealed via his X handle that he underwent a kidney transplant on Monday. “Yesterday, my only brother gave me one of his kidneys so I could live again,” he wrote.

However, he later disclosed on Wednesday that the kidney transplant, performed at St. Nicholas Hospital in Lagos on Tuesday, was unsuccessful.
