As violence continues in Nigeria, BBNaija’s Mike Edwards has shared a sad story of how he lost his older brother, Matthew, to the country’s poor healthcare.

He disclosed this in a post he made on his verified Instagram page today, October 24, 2020.

According to him, his older brother wouldn’t have died if Nigeria had a better healthcare support when he suffered sickle cell crisis at the age of 10.

Writing further, Mike Edwards said the fight to End SARS is the people’s cry for help after years of corruption and bad governance.
