Billionaire Folorunsho Alakija is reportedly blinded after a near-air incident.
Nigeria News Nalin Nigerian billionaire businesswoman Folorunsho Alakija reportedly lost her eyesight in a frustrating situation in the case of improper air.
Sources said Alakija and her husband Modupe Alakija, chairman of Famfa Oil, were flying at the time of the incident, causing her blood pressure to rise sharply.
The report shows that a sudden increase in her blood pressure may have affected her vision and caused her to be blind.
Further gathering is that Alakija has been experiencing vision problems for a while but chose to focus on building a church rather than seeking medical treatment.
Sources quoted by Saharareporter revealed:
“She had a near-air misfortune with her husband on the boat, and her blood pressure was reportedly rising, affecting her eyes. She had been experiencing vision problems, but instead of treating the disease, she chose to build a church to help her. Now she can’t see it.”
She has been seeking medical care since then and she is reportedly receiving treatment.
However, her family or representative has not issued an official statement about her condition.
Alakija is one of Nigeria’s wealthiest women and is a well-known entrepreneur and philanthropist known for her work in the oil, fashion and real estate industries.
With further details emerging, her current health remains a subject of public concern.
