“My hero for today was this lady. She walked all through the protest #Endsars,” his tweet which gained over 18,000 likes and 16,000 retweets reads.

Another twitter user, @Aproko_Doctor reshared the image and called on people to donate to buy Obiene a prosthetic leg.
This is Jane.
She's been unemployed since 2013 partly because of her disability, she came out in the #EndSARS protests and we need to help.
