NewsOnline Nigeria reports that Nigerian billionaire businesswoman, Folorunsho Alakija, has reportedly lost her sight following a distressing near air mishap.
According to sources, Alakija, alongside her husband, Modupe Alakija, Chairman of Famfa Oil, was onboard a flight when the incident occurred, leading to a sharp increase in her blood pressure.
Reports indicate that the sudden rise in her blood pressure may have affected her eyesight, causing her to go blind.
It was further gathered that Alakija had been experiencing vision issues for some time but had chosen to focus on establishing a church instead of seeking medical treatment.
A source quoted by SaharaReporters revealed:
“She had a near air mishap with her husband on board, and her blood pressure reportedly shot up, affecting her eyes. She has been having eyesight issues, but instead of treating the illness, she chose to start a church to help her. Now she can’t see.”
Medical attention has since been sought, and she is reportedly undergoing treatment.
However, no official statement has been released by her family or representatives regarding her condition.
Alakija, one of Nigeria’s richest women, is a prominent entrepreneur and philanthropist known for her work in the oil, fashion, and real estate industries.
Her current health status remains a subject of public concern as further details emerge.
