The son of Nigerian billionaire Ladi Jadesimi donated his kidney to an Israeli girl named Omaima Halabi he'd never met! Found the story on Jerusalem Post. A black-hatted rabbi, a white-hatted Muslim elder and a black Christian pastor attend a Christmas celebration in a Druse village. This is not the first line of a joke, but a celebration of a gift of life. When Smith Jadesimi, a tall and athletic 25-year old from Nigeria, first approached his country’s Israeli Embassy in Abuja about his desire to donate a kidney to an Israeli, he was politely but firmly turned away. Likewise,
the organization that facilitates kidney transplants in Israel told him no; at least one Israeli hospital refused him, too.

Jadesimi was undaunted. A man of deep faith, he knew he was supposed to donate a kidney to an Israeli, and that it would happen. Rabbi Yeshayahu Heber was among those who rejected Jadesimi. Although Heber himself was a kidney recipient and the founding chairman of Matnat Chaim – Hebrew for Gift of Life, an organization that desperately seeks organ donors – he assumed Jadesimi was seeking a way into Israel as a foreign worker, like many other Africans. Said Heber, “We don’t want [those who have fallen on hard times] and want to donate their kidneys for money; we’re only seeking altruistic donations.”
