I don't know if this counts but in secondary school, I fell from my bunk bed, the one on top, in my sleep. I must have passed out because I struck my head on the ground. I mean, who falls and still keeps sleeping? Sometimes I just wonder, what if I didn't wake up? What caused me to fall? These questions I can't really answer. We live to die another day. Live each day with death and God in mind. 21 Likes 1 Share |

On May 1, 2018 I was traveling from Lagos to. On getting to Ondo state, many cars were doing a U-turn and unfortunately we were on high speed Our driver applied brakes and couldn’t control the engine. Our vehicle went off and the driver abandoned us and ran away Lo and behold it was the Fulani boys. I thank God almighty because I was given another opportunity to live. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

May 1st 2019... When I was poisoned at my place of work. The hatred and jealousy of my co-workers is too much to the extent that they went to my wardrobe and poison my foodstuffs. This happened through my intimate buddy that has my wardrobe spare key. Trust nobody oo my people. All praises and adoration be unto God sha.

Gagare1:BABA,THEY WERE ARMED BUT I DONT WHY DEY DID NOT SHOOT,BUT WHEN I LEFT THE PLACE ,I SAW A ROAD BLOCK BY ARMY FEW KILOMETERS AWAY FROM THE POINT AND I NARRATED MY EXPERIENCE,THEY SAID THEY ARE AWARE BUT WAITING FOR SUPERIOR DIRECTIVES BECAUSE THE ISSUE HAS BEEN ESCALLATED WITH NO RESPONSE BECAUSE G.O.C NUMBER WAS UNREACHABLE. THE BEST THEY COULD DO IS TO ASK THE VEHICLE COMING TOWARDS THAT DIRECTION TO TURN BACK 11 Likes 1 Share |

mine was, i was at home alone, thinking of what to do, then i decided to check on a frnd living the next street behind my house. the street was deserted as per its noon around 12p.m. Some ugly looking guys on bike blocked me to ask for a house address at the area, i let them know, they are in the wrong place. they started a story, they have cameras, fones, new gadget to sell, they need a good girl like me to market it for them, they will give me fone, cash e.t.c, i should climbed on the bike with them, to show me. At first, am not desperate to be a big girl, yet, innocent me, i didn't suspect them to be dangerous, i just told them, i have elder sister that will be in need of such things, if they can allow me to introduce her but they declined, its me, they trust . they tried all they could for me to follow, but i decline. So, they went! It was later i reason the whole drama and i just thank God, assuming, i belongs to peeper them gang, hmmm! that is the end! The last one was, traveling from Abuja to Ogun state to attend my father's burial, i got to shagamu arround 7.30p.m, manage enter Ijedu ode, got to the pack to Ishiwo, i was told the last vehicle has gone, so i don't have a choice than to take bike. the first bike man, i saw declined, i got another one, immediately he told me to enter, no negotiation on price . i thought am lucky, when we move, the guy was going another direction, it was getting arround 9.pm, i was looking at the road, am not familarier with this place, the guy was speeding. To God who have it, the bike broke down on the road, innocent me, i was even trying to help to put the bike on shape, but the bike refused. i had to tell him am looking for alternative. I stopped a car coming, i explained my ordeal, the guy told me to go back to Ijebu ode and sleep over, that this place is not safe at all. he took me back to Ijedu ode, then i located where my grandmother was( blessed memories) and pass a night. It was the next day when i continue my journey, then i understood all what plays out perfectly! To God be the glory! Am still alive 24 Likes 1 Share |

Just last month I was riding my bicycle when from behind me a truck came out and knocked me off the road. How i survived, I know it was only God. Another case, earlier this year I was sitting at the front of a bus when we rammed into another car , very brutal scene but I got out unhurt. Those two incidents this year have taught me a lot about life; one is to always value those who are closest to me as we could go at anytime and two is to not worry about the future too much or things I can’t control, because after all life is short and no one knows even the next 10 minutes. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

July 31st 2001, around 7am at PWD bus stop, Ikeja. I was about to cross the rail track, I got absent minded and forgot myself right there on the rail track. A train was coming from Ikeja along inward Oshodi and was seriously hooting it's horns. I could only hear the horn faintly from background because I was far gone in my absent mindedness and of course wasn't even aware of the fact I was about to be crushed by the fast approaching train. All of a sudden, a very tall and dark complexioned elderly man clad in white native attire with pure white grey hair both on his head and face came from only God knows where, took me by my hand and gently lifted me out of the track and just then the train zoomed past. Then I regained my consciousness. Onlookers gathered around me, some of them were abusing me and one of them asked "why you come jump commot for the railway?" I replied that an elderly man lifted me out and they asked "which elderly man?. I was about to point to him and realised he wasn't anymore. Some of them actually thought I had mental issues. Since then July 31st became my second birthday. 47 Likes 5 Shares |

Was on my way to Anambra state, for a friend's dad's funeral, 15mins to land one of the engines of the plane got bad, heard a loud sound from the left side, then smoke in the plane. All kinds of prayers were going on....to cut the long story short, we shot the runway but everyone came out alive and well. 5 months ago precisely. God gat us that very evening. 11 Likes 1 Share |
