A former National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member, Eniola, has made an emotional appeal for help after a road accident while returning from orientation camp left her paralysed nearly five years ago.
Eniola shared her story in a viral TikTok video posted by a close friend, recounting how the 2021 accident changed her life after she was asked to leave the NYSC orientation camp in Akwa Ibom State due to illness.
“In 2021, I had an accident when I was coming back from NYSC camp. I was supposed to go to Akwa Ibom State and I got sick after like two weeks in camp, so they asked me to go home. On my way back, I had an accident and I was the only survivor. The accident affected my spinal cord and since then, I’ve been like this,” she said.
According to her, the spinal cord injury left her unable to move or feel any part of her body from below the chest.
