The young man noted that despite not having polio or an accident when he was young, he was told that at the age of six, he slept and woke up paralysed.
In his words:
“I wasn't born physically challenged neither was it polio nor accident too. As I was told, I slept one night and woke up paralyzed at the age of six years old.”
Not stopping there, he went ahead to speak on how he has been able to cope as an adult living with a disability in Nigeria. According to Adebisi, his ends are never met, but he keeps trying his best.
He said:
“Making ends meet? The ends are never met, I'm just trying my best against all odds and trying to be the better version of myself.”
How Davido sent disabled man N1 million
Davido had asked for Michael Adebisi’s account details on social media, but little was known about how much the singer gave to him.
While speaking with Legit.ng, the young man revealed that the singer had given him a whopping sum of N1 million.
Not stopping there, he added that the social media attention Davido also gave to him has helped to boost his business so far. However, the negative side has been how he wasn’t prepared for the little fame that came with the attention.
He said:
“It's affected my life positively in the sense of the boost it gave my business and the hell that came through from other Nigerians. Negatively, I wasn't prepared for the little fame that came with it. Not bad, afterall.”
Davido says Femi Otedola gave him his first N23 million

In the video, the DMW boss expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Otedola and even called him ‘uncle’. Davido said the billionaire businessman gave him his first $30,000 (N23 million) in cash.
