I Wished For Death After Botched Surgery – Jay Boogie
Renowned transgender personality, Daniel Anthony Nsikan, known as Jay Boogie, shared that he desired death due to severe complications resulting from a failed botched cosmetic surgery.
He disclosed that his health declined significantly, necessitating daily dialysis to aid urination due to complications arising from the surgery.
In a conversation with media personality Chude Jideonwo, Jay Boogie revealed receiving death threats on social media after friends posted his hospital bed photos.
He stated that his friends falsely claimed he required public assistance for a kidney transplant using those images.
Boogie expressed sorrow over the invasion of privacy by supposed friends who shared his images online, resulting in relentless cyberbullying directed at him.
He mentioned temporarily withdrawing from media exposure due to the overwhelming negativity and threats he faced.
He said “People that I thought were my friends came into the hospital and took pictures of me and sent to the bloggers. It was becoming so annoying that the bullying online was even too much.
“I was receiving death threats. People will come to my DM and be like, ‘You never still die?’ So, I decided to stay off the media for a while.
“I wasn’t the one that sent out my pictures on social media. It was my friends. I’m a discreet person. I don’t like flaunting things. I love living a low-key life. Because nobody cares about you. You should care about yourself”.
Highlighting his desire for a private life, he underscored the lack of regard for his well-being, criticizing the insensitivity of those who mocked his situation.
He shared enduring the ordeal of daily dialysis to manage swollen legs and high urine levels, meticulously monitoring water intake, and enduring painful blood extractions during sessions.
Reflecting on hurtful comments, he questioned the mental health of those ridiculing his choices, expressing weariness and contemplating the purpose behind undergoing the surgery that caused such distress.
He stated “So, I mean, with the dramas going online, people bullying me saying, ‘How man go go do nyansh.’ Can you even imagine the mentality? Do you even see me as a man? This is something I want for myself.
“And I’m sure that if I were to be any of their siblings they won’t tell me that they won’t feel the pains I’m going through. I started going to dialysis every day just so I can pass out urine. My legs were swollen. The urine was very high. At that point, I was measuring my intake of water.
“Before I go for dialysis they will check my weight and I will be weighing 100 and something. Every day, I would be going for dialysis, they will be taking out my blood and all that.
“It was hurting that I sat down and said, ‘God abeg, I am just tired. I just want to go [die]. What am I even doing? Who send me to come do this nyansh sef?”
