He said the arrays of gunshots shattered the windscreens of the car.
He narrated:
“I am still shocked over what happened. I was completely
confused. The police escort told me not to stop the car and that I should
continue driving. It was God that saved my life.
“They thought I was at the back of the car and that was why
they targeted that part. With the tinted glasses, they had concluded that I was
probably at the owner’s seat and they riddle the back side of the car with
bullets.
“It was a close shave with death and I thank God for His
divine intervention. I am a simple man; I don’t owe anybody and I am not
covetous. So, why would somebody want to take my life,” , he said.
