As the world marks World Sickle Cell Day, observed annually on 19 June, Nigerian singer Adekunle Gold (AG Baby), has launched ‘5 Star Care’ through his charity, the Adekunle Gold Foundation (AGF)
Sickle cell disease is a hereditary disorder that affects red blood cells, causing them to adopt a sickle shape. This abnormal shape obstructs blood flow and results in pain, fatigue, and other health complications.
Adekunle Gold, who’s a survivor of the disease, has been open about his journey with sickle cell anaemia, which he documented in his hit song ‘5 Star’ released on 15 July 2022.
He announced that 5 Star Care will provide free, comprehensive health insurance to 1,000 individuals with the condition.
According to him, beneficiaries will receive routine medical care, emergency treatment, and long-term support to ease the financial strain of managing sickle cell disease and enhance access to quality healthcare.
