kefee has chance of survival--Doctor

Nigerian Branama crooner, Kefee is really in a critical condition and from information gathered, the six months pregnant singer has been diagnosed as having pre-eclampsia – pregnancy induced high blood pressure. This was noticed after She had embarked on a 14-hour flight to Chicago for an event but went into coma, forcing the plane to land in Los Angeles so that she could be urgently attended to. This is what a medical doctor in Nigeria, Dr Adeyefa, shedding more light on Kefee’s condition, says "Kefee is in a precarious situation because of the six months pregnancy. If the foetus had been nine months, the doctors would have removed the baby and saved the mother and child. "As it is now, not only will the baby not survive because the carrier is in coma, Kefee may also lose her life from further complications. The chances of the mother surviving is narrow, while the kid has a narrower chance. I urge Nigerians to pray for her, that's all she needs.

She therefore urged all Nigerians to remain prayerful and committed to building a better society for our children. We all prayed together and I promised to be visiting her every month.
