A 17-year-old Daniel Akanni is appealing for financial assistance worth N2m to undergo the amputation of his left leg and be fitted with an artificial limb.
Akanni was born with a leg deformity.
He underwent corrective surgery at the National Orthopaedic Hospital, Igbobi, at 18 months old, which enabled him to walk, though he was left with a limp because the corrected leg was shorter than the other.
Akanni, who hopes to study Petroleum Engineering, said he would be grateful for the chance to walk again.
