In May, Jigan shared his experience with his disability in the US. The actor, via his Insta page, expressed excitement at the privileges he was enjoying overseas. According to him, since he has been traveling, he has been given an option of getting a wheelchair because of his leg, but Nigerian’s mentality of not wanting anyone to pity him hasn’t left his head.
He disclosed that since he has been in the US, he hasn’t seen anyone like him walking by themselves without someone pushing them, but if it was Nigeria, rather than carrying him, people would be thinking of how to collect money from him.
In June of 2022, in honor of his 40th birthday, Jigan had spoken out about his disability as he stripped to his underwear to show off his body. He opened up on how it feels like living with disability to inspire his kinds.
In Apirl of last year, he appealed to those living with a disability to make him a case study. Though not stating why, the Yoruba actor stated that there are reasons for it.
In a follow-up post, the Yoruba actor educated his children on what living with disability feels like. He explained that it was to help them fight the trauma it can cause them and to prevent them from being trolled by her friends or classmates.
