Baddy of Lagos taking his first steps after undergoing a leg-straightening surgery
Lagos-based influencer, David Obadiah, popularly known as ‘Baddy of Lagos,’ has shared an update on his recovery journey, taking his first steps with a straightened leg following orthopaedic surgery in Egypt.
The procedure was made possible through a crowdfunding campaign initiated by fellow influencer, Wizarab, who rallied support for Baddy’s treatment.
Baddy had sought financial help to correct a congenital leg condition that left his legs bowed.
The surgery was done in stages, with one leg operated on at a time due to the intensity of the procedure and recovery process.
In a post on his X page, Baddy expressed gratitude to supporters, sharing a photo of himself walking with a crutch.
“First steps with my leg post surgery, y’all gave me this. So, I have to fully heal from my right leg before I can go back to Egypt for the left one, it was impossible to do both at the same time,” he wrote. (The Nation)
