Mary Daniel, Amputee Lady who hawk for survival totally transformed, turns 27 today
The pathetic story of Mary Daniel, an amputee single mother hawking bottled water on highways in the Oshodi area of Lagos State elicited so many emotions from Nigerians.
Dropping out at Junior Secondary School 3, she took to the streets in Anambra State, selling sachet water to fend for herself and her aged grandmother.
She was impregnated in 2018 by her fiancé who she said denied responsibility for the pregnancy, forcing her to relocate to Delta State out of shame.Read Also: Super Eagles forward Victor Osimhen tips Eagles for AFCON title
Daniel continued the arduous trade in the oil-rich state even after giving birth. She relocated to Lagos about two weeks ago, hawking bottled water in chaotic traffic and passing the night on the balcony of a building on Suwebatu Street, Oshodi.
Emotions ran high on the social media as many people sought help for the orphan while praising her unrivalled grit.Well-meaning Nigerians sympathized with her, and a crowd funding effort raised up to 15 Million Naira for her.
Apparently, that money is being put to good use as she’s been totally transformed in recent photos that emerged online also seeing her celebrate her 27th birthday today.
