On July 4, 2013, Jude Ikegwuonu, a broadcast journalist, sustained a spinal injury in a road accident. He injured his C5/C6 vertebrae and has been quadriplegic (paralysed in both arms and legs) ever since. Nnenna Brown, his fiancée, who has stood by him all through his travails, however says Jude being in a wheelchair or being bedridden hasn’’t in any way affected his positive outlook and personality.
