Nigerian musician, Innocent Onyebuchi, professionally known as Daddy Fresh, has said that he has sold all his properties in a bid to take care of his failing health.
The singer said he was battling liver, kidney and vision issues.
He said he had operated on one of his eyes and could no longer see with it.
Daddy Fresh made this known to prominent Nollywood actor and filmmaker, Kunle Afod, who visited him in the hospital.
Looking weak, he could not even recognise Afod.
He initially called the actor: “Oba.”
He then replied: “It’s Afod, Kunle Afod.”
Daddy Fresh then brightened up and said: “Na lie.
“How you take know say I dey here?
“You’re the last person I could think of.
“I was wondering if I was hallucinating again.
“Before now, there were times I looked for you, but didn’t know how to get you.

“If I stand up here now, I go fall, except somebody hold me.
“See my face, my knees, wounds because of falling, like a child that is learning how to walk.”
