Here is a short breakdown of three famous Nigerian celebrities who were not discouraged by their disabilities but found courage from them.

1. Cobhams Asuquo:



Cobhams Asuquo is a Nigerian musician, producer, and songwriter. In 2005, Asuquo was signed on with Sony ATV London as a songwriter.

Although blind, the talented music producer has been able to win multiple local and international awards for his creative and entrepreneurial contributions to the Nigerian music industry. He was featured on CNN’s African Voices for his contribution and impact on the African music industry.

When you talk about Asa, one of Nigeria’s finest artistes, you talk Cobhams.

2. Tony Tetuila:



Anthony Olanrewaju Awotoye, better known as Tony Tetuila, is an Afro hip hop artist. He is from Kwara State, Nigeria. He was born into a polygamous family with an enormous lump on his chest, a bad health condition, and having to cope as a crippled child. He started walking but he’s legs are not perfectly balanced.

Tony proved that a man’s beginning does not necessarily determine his future.

3. Yinka Ayefele:



Yinka Ayefele is from Ekiti State, Nigeria. He was involved in a fatal accident on the 12th of December 1997 and since then the Gospel musician has been on a wheelchair. Despite this, Yinka Ayefele has continued to thrive in the genre of gospel music and he has made a fortune from shows and his album sales.
