September 24, (THEWILL) – Writer and former editor of defunct Hints Magazine, Kayode Ajala, is thankful, not only to God for surviving a kidney ailment that saw him undergoing a successful kidney transplant surgery, but also to Dele Momodu, founder and CEO of Ovation Media Group, who was instrumental to pulling him out of the valley of the shadow of death.
Ajala’s journey to wholesomeness began last year after he was wheeled into a hospital for kidney surgery in Abuja. For eight months, he had grappled with acute renal failure and survived the period with thrice-a-week dialysis sessions.
Exactly a year ago, he had a successful kidney transplant after getting an undisclosed donor. Today, a year after, he is healthy, fit as a fiddle, and joyous that he has a second chance at life. He is grateful for life.
Ajala was a household name in the soft sell genre in the 1990s and he plied his trade with True Tales Publications, publishers of Hints Magazine, where he wrote about romance. This was where he made a name for himself. He left Hints Magazine to midwife another romance publication known as Hearts Magazine but for a brief spell.
Later he started syndicating his writings to several daily newspapers. That also didn’t last long. These days, the 57-year-old is more preoccupied with working with the Celestial Church of Christ as an evangelist alongside his wife, Prophetess Linda Olufunmilayo, whom he met and married in 2001.
