Critical Condition and Double Amputation
In a video posted to her YouTube channel on July 5, Olunloyo revealed that her trusted source had informed her that Sam Larry is in a critical condition. She explained that doctors were considering a double amputation of both legs to save his life. "I'm not going to say the name of the hospital, but what is going on is Sam Larry is in very critical condition, okay? I have a very good source to this, a trusted source, and this is what I was told: he's in very critical condition and he may have to be amputated, both legs, okay?" she said. "Now remember, it's Sunday the 5th of July. Yesterday was the 4th of July, so I was busy doing a lot of things. This is how it was told to me yesterday: sometimes you have to amputate legs just to save somebody's life. The doctors—was telling my source—that they are trying to do a double amputation."
Severe Head Injuries and Broken Neck
Olunloyo further disclosed that Sam Larry also suffered severe head injuries and a broken neck, which have complicated his condition. "However, he had a lot of head injuries. He was—he also broke his neck. This is so creepy because the carotid artery is in between our—both our necks, and if that's injured, the brain—the blood going to the brain is impeded. So it's—it's really bad. It's really bad. Really bad," she added.
