Maryann, a physically challenged Nigerian lady, has silenced her critics and uplifted countless netizens with her positive attitude towards her condition.
Maryann’s journey to empowerment began when she decided to address the comments and criticisms she had received from some individuals who questioned her demeanour as someone with a deformity.
Unfazed by the negativity, Maryann boldly proclaimed, “Some people go dey make funny comments like you don’t act like someone with one hand, even with your one hand you still dey do shakara. Stop am! Na only you dey see one hand.”
Refusing to conform to others’ limited perceptions, Maryann boldly declared her self-perception: “I see myself with two hands. You dey craze? Where you see one hand?“.
Maryann’s empowering message gained even more momentum as she proudly shared that, despite her condition, she continues to slay and confidently step out without any shame.
In her words;
“Some people go dey make funny comments like you don’t act like someone with one hand, even with your one hand you still dey do shakara. Stop am! Na only you dey see one hand. “I see myself with two hands. You dey craze? Where you see one hand? With my one hand, i dey slay, i dey wear crop top enter anywhere… “With this my one hand I feel like a baddie. I feel like a barbie girl. I don’t used to see myself with one hand…”
“…Use this video to motivate yourself girl. Rock that one hand. Rock that one leg. Rock that thing that makes it look like you’re dis.figured… Rock your scars. Don’t let anyone limit you. Don’t let anyone make you feel you are supposed to be hiding...,” Maryann added.
