few weeks after the public discovered mary daniel an amputee, who hawked sachet water in oshodi. The Lagos Government has discovered she lied to the public to raise N25 million in donations, and her bank account has been frozen by the Lagos state government.

Mary claimed that she hawked ‘sachet water’ in Oshodi and that she lost a leg in an accident that killed all passengers, including her parents when she was a teenager.

She claimed she has a baby and an aged grandmother to fend for.

She narrated how life dealt her several blows and she had to drop out of school and hit the streets to make ends meet.

Her story, which went viral attracted sympathy from Nigerians across the world.

Donations poured into her publicised bank account, with about N25m raised.

According to reports, her sudden wealth prompted the state government to immediately shelter her to prevent criminals from taking advantage of her.

But her story later turned out to false.

Mary, from Kogi state, is not an orphan. Her father is alive and she lost her leg at birth.

It was gathered Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu immediately handed her over to officials of the social welfare for investigation following revelations she lied.

Commissioner of Police Hakeem Odumosu said the state government has prevented her from accessing the money.

“The government does not want a situation where it will become a trend for people to cook up stories, manipulate the people to get donations,” Odumosu explained.
