Nigerian actor in need of financial assistance after ghastly accident crippled him

Victor Olaotan Victor Olaotan

Two years after a ghastly accident cost him the use of his legs, veteran Nollywood actor Victor Olaotan is seeking financial aid to seek medical treatment abroad.

Back in 2016, the actor best known for his recurrent role in Tinsel was involved in a car crash on Lagos/Ibadan Expressway and was placed in a medically induced coma as he was treated for months.

He has been facing the possibility of his two legs being amputated to save his life and his family has been treating him as best as they could in the last two years.

Right now he needs $50,000 to seek treatment abroad and a GoFundMe page has been set up for him.

Before the accident, Olaotan had played the role of Fred Ade Williams. He also featured in movies like Lovestruck as well as Three Wise Men, alongside Richard Mofe-Damijo and Zack Orji.
