On October 20, 2020, Olalekan Falaye joined thousands of young Nigerians to peacefully protest against police brutality. Instead, Falaye lost the ability to walk.
Olalekan Falaye, 23, used to actively move around before soldiers shot at protesters at the Lekki tollgate on October 20, 2020. Now, he cannot walk without a wheelchair. His right leg was amputated as a result of a gunshot injury he sustained on Tuesday, October 20, 2020.
