I am pleased to inform you that Yinka Craig is currently recieving treatment at what is unarguably the best Hospital in the World, The MAYO Clinic in Rochester Minnesota, USA. He is scheduled for a Stem Cell transplantation which involves clearing the bone marrow of all cells and reintroducing fresh progenitor, pluripotent cells into the blood and thus curing the cancer. Lets keep praying and believing God for healing! Once again I want to say a big thank you to all those who made this possible, most especialy “Our Friend” who gave over and above all that we could ever expect and also to His Excellencey, Babatunde Fashola SAN, and the Lagos State Government for their kind and generous contribution. For all the other people whose contributions keep coming in , please rest assured that we do not count it as light what you have done and we are truly grateful. Thank You all !

I would like to, on behalf of the Yinka Craig family, extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who called in and sent text messages. Your kind words of encouragement are truly appreciated and ever prayer said, whether whispered in quiet supplication or shouted on city rooftops has gone a long way in strengthening us as a family and most especially causing a turn around in our Father’s health.
Also I would like to say a big thank you to those who have contributed financially towards the Stem Cell transplant treatment that he is scheduled to have in the U.S. Please be aware that we do not take your kindness for granted and know that we are truly touched and greatly blessed by your generosity. We could not have made it this far without you!
Once again, thank you all very much and may God bless you richly, Amen!
Dr. David Olamide Craig

Unlike the papers may lead you to believe, Yinka Craig, though battling cancer is still his jovial and lively self.
It would take more than a few aberrant cells to choke his indefatigable spirit.
He was thrilled by the score line of the recent match between ManU and Barca… at least no one got bragging rights this time.
His favorite breakfast meal of yam and eggs hardly last minutes on his plate and as usual there is always a cup of tea by his side.
Thank you all for your comments and prayers, we will keep you posted!

We sincerely appreciate the concern and interest generated by Yinka’s current state of health.
We are however distressed to see that there has been a proliferation of websites, blogs, groups, and the like where individuals are requested to make cash donations and others still receiving comments and letters on his behalf.
We would like to categorically state that we have NOT authorized any person(s) or groups to raise funds on our behalf.
All currently running websites are requested to stand down with immediate effect.
Members of the public and well wishers can please visit www.yinkacraig.org for information and updates.
Thank you for your support and prayers.
Dr. Olamide Craig
For the family.
