13-year Old Award Winning Saxophonist, Sodeinde Going Blind in Ekiti ….Doctors Predict She May Never get See Again
By Dayo Badmus
13-year old Precious Oluwatamilore Sodeinde, has been declared partially blind by doctors at both the Afe Babalola Multi-purpose Hospital and the Ekiti State University, Teaching Hospital, Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State capital.
More tragic about Oluwatamilore’s travail is that the doctors have warned that she would soon lose her sight totally if a surgical operation is not urgently carried out on her.
Worsening the poor but talented girl’s woes is another fact that her parents cannot afford to pay the N2million demanded for her eye surgery.
This is because her father, Gbenga Sodeinde, is a freelance Reporter with Daily Times newspapers while her mother, Mrs. Sodeinde Omolara, is an unemployed graduate.
Young Oluwatamilore came into limelight a few months ago when she won in a contest as a saxophonist after completing a free study at the Crysttal School of Music in Ado-Ekiti. Since then, she has been singled out for greatness as everyone who came her way celebrated her for the rare gift.
Stage named Pre-sax, Oluwatamilore who is a student of Greater Tommorow secondary school, Ado-Ekiti, has thrilled many during her several presentations at ocassions she has been invited to perform, but that may no longer happen as she is currently down in spirit and soul with the tragic development.
