Nigerian singer Adekunle Gold has debunked a viral rumour claiming he underwent a bone marrow transplant to treat his lifelong battle with sickle cell anemia.
The speculation started when a fan confidently stated,
“Yes he is, but he has done that bone marrow transplant so I don’t think it affects him that much now.”
Responding directly via social media, the “Falling Up” crooner shut down the claim:
“It’s how you people say things you don’t know with so much confidence. Marrow transplant? No, I haven’t done bone.”
Adekunle Gold had in 2022 bravely revealed his health condition to the public, sharing how he had lived with sickle cell disorder since birth.
His response not only clears the air but also highlights the need for responsible conversations around health—especially on social media, where misinformation spreads fast.
