Dying man's brother gets UK visa for bone marrow surgery
A man who needs a bone marrow transplant will now be able to get it from his Nigerian brother after the Home office has lifted his visa ban. Isaac Aganozor, a caretaker at a top London school, has
leukaemia. His brother Patrick, who lives in Nigeria, had his first visa request refused as the Home office thought he would try to stay in the UK. The decision was overturned when a new Visa request made it clear that Dulwich college would sponsor him.
The college, where Mr Aganozor works, said it would pay his brother's 1500pounds return flight and offer him a place to stay. Mr Aganozor, of Sydenhem Hill, South-East London, is on his fifth cycle of chemotherapy.
searches on the transplant register had failed to find a match.
