Adenike

Read Below:

“As a toddler, Adenike’s legs began to rot away. At age 5, her two legs were amputated in order to save her life. My friend @ayaworanho3d did a documentary on Adenike’s story. It was nominated for the best documentary at the AMVCA 2018.

“Despite her state & paucity of funds, she chose to go to school, believing her condition will not stop her from having an education. Today she’s a student of the Polytechnic of Ibadan. Adenike is a cheerful girl, always smiling & full of life despite everything.”
