Brotherly Love: Comedian De Don Donates Kidney To Save Brother’s Life

De-Don


Blood, they say, is thicker than water; and this statement has been proven true again as one of Nigeria’s popular comedians and OAP, Okeremute Iruvwe, also known as De Don, did the unthinkable by donating one of his kidneys to save his brother’s life. We hear that the Delta State born comedian carried out appreciable act at a hospital in India where his brother, Morris Iruvwe, had initially undergone a kidney transplant in 2009 and now required another due to the collapse of the new kidney.
“Morris’ first kidney transplant was in 2009 and it was donated by one of his sisters and since the operation, he has had to travel to India every now and then for check up until 2012, when he could no longer do so due to financial constraints. This year, the kidney finally packed up, which now required another transplant and De Don was the only sibling willing to donate his,” a close source concluded.

A trail of trash and ashes: Amanda Bynes 'booted from Ritz-Carlton hotel after ripping out smoke alarm and discarding food and garbage...

A trail of trash and ashes: Amanda Bynes 'booted from Ritz-Carlton hotel after ripping out smoke alarm and discarding food and garbage around her room'


New images have been released of Amanda Bynes' New York hotel room  - covered in cigarette ash, half consumed soda bottles and endless beauty products.
The 27-year-old actress had racked up a bill of $9,000 for a nine-day stint at a Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Manhattan -- one of her many housing spots after she was arrested for tossing a marijuana pipe out of the window of her Midtown apartment on May 23.
According to TMZ Amanda was asked to leave the hotel last Thursday because guests had complained about her smoking and drug use and also for being rude to hotel staff.
Trashed: Amanda Bynes was reportedly kicked out of a Ritz-Carlton hotel in New York City last week after employees found piles of garbage and ashes inside the room

Pictures taken before the housekeeping staff could take control of the situation showed an unmade bed with countless extra pillows, clothing tags and receipts on the floor and over a dozen Diet Coke bottles with small amounts of soda still remaining.
Amanda's bathroom counter was covered in expensive beauty products, including hair removal creme, muscle pain relievers and scar treatment -- along with a slew of opened complimentary toiletry kits.
Her smoke detector had also been torn off the ceiling and instead placed on a night stand, illegible notes scribbled on a pad of paper beside it.
By Monday she had reached her parents' home in Thousand Oaks, California, reportedly telling them that she bypassed the airport completely and took a taxi for her cross country trip.
The cab journey is just one case of financial extravagance from the starlet - who is said to have burned through $1.4m of her $4m fortune in just a few months.
The papers state that Amanda withdrew $100,000 on June 4, then the same amount on July 2.
She has also written checks for a total of $63,000 during the same period.

Later that day she was found to have set a small fire in front of a property just a few doors down, inadvertently dousing her dog in gasoline during the bizarre incident.
While her dog was fortunately uninjured, Amanda was taken to a psychiatric centre in Ventura County, California under a 5150 hold -- the same placed on Britney Spears during her meltdown in 2008.
'When any person, as a result of mental disorder, is a danger to others, or to himself or herself, or gravely disabled,' the medical code states.

As a result, her parents have filed for conservatorship to help her regain her footing, claiming that the Easy A actress suffers from schizophrenia.
According to reports, Bynes can act normally for up to ten hours at a time, but then becomes irrational and incoherent.
If the judge rules in their favour, TMZ claim the star's parents will petition to make the temporary conservatorship permanent, which would lead the judge to set a date for a fresh hearing and appoint Amanda a lawyer.

A photo has also emerged showing the former Hairspray star hiding under a white sheet as she is wheeled between buildings by staff at the centre in Ventura, California.
Bynes has also been allocated her own room at the centre, after she allegedly began berating her room mate.
However despite her strange behaviour, Bynes has reportedly tested negative for all illegal drugs except marijuana.

The papers also state that  Amanda has become 'extremely paranoid about being watched,' and covers smoke alarms with towels and tapes windows shut to prevent herself being photographed.
Her parents also claim that she has 'profound issues with her body image' and is 'obsessed with the fact that she (and others) are ugly,' according to TMZ.

With the former Hairspray star receiving treatment, friends have started to come forward to offer more details about her recent troubles.
These include the allegation by her close friend Ana Rivera that Amanda's last dog died due to her neglect.
'Her last Pomeranian... she left just wander away and it fell off the cliffs in Hollywood Hills,' Rivera told Radar. 'She told me about it and started crying when talking about it.' 
Concerned: Bynes' parents Lynn and Rick are seen leaving the medical center where she is believed to be hospitalized on a 5150 psychiatric hold
