She narrated: “This was 15th December 2023. I went to collect my posting letter. While I was going there I hit my leg against a stone and I felt it was normal. Though the pain was intense as at when I hit it and I cried.


“Later I went to the bank to collect my ATM to the account NYSC open for me and I started feeling pain in my right leg. That’s when stroke happened to me.


“Before I knew it it was getting worse to the extent I could not stand. They had to help me to the car. The woman said maybe I dislocated an ankle.


“So I headed to the bone doctor that was taking care of me during the stroke period when it was very intense.


“I got here and you will not believe it. The man said he sent the leg pain through the stone that I hit my leg on so I can pay him his remaining N50,000.


“Guy! I was shocked but I was still pained because I was the one that didn’t pay him his remaining money but guys this happens for real.”
