I lost my leg after bonesetter tied it to ceiling fan — Baker

Taiwo Aderayo, a caterer and baker, recounts her childhood before losing her leg in a childhood accident that left her with a disability. She has very few memories of her early years, only that they were normal and that she grew up with her condition unaware of being different. Her family, especially her mother, treated her as any other child, making sure she was included in all activities.

After the amputation, Taiwo continued her education at Lagos State Polytechnic, studying Food Technology and obtaining a National Diploma. Despite facing challenges in finding employment, her passion for cooking led her to a career in catering and baking.
