On August 26, 2024, Thank God Omori Smith, known as TG Omori, underwent an unsuccessful kidney transplant at St. Nicholas Hospital in Lagos, after his only brother donated a kidney for him.
Sharing a photo of himself, he wrote on his X handle; “It’s mind over matter. If the mind is defeated, it’s only a matter of time before the body falls.

“Pain has no power over me. I will be back in 2025. Stay in love!.”

TG is one of Nigeria’s finest Directors who has handled projects for some of the biggest stars in Africa.
