How A Nigerian Man Lost His Leg To Accident On His Way To See His New Baby by 10mobile: 11:50am On Jun 27
"I was at work that very faithful day when i got the news that, My wife had just given birth, this was my first child, you can imagine how excited i was. Everyone at work was happy for me & we all celebrated. I immidiately took permission from my boss to go see my son & the mom at the hospital, he told me it was ok & even gave me some cash to buy something for my wife & the baby.

I stood at the roadside waiting for a taxi, it took me about 12 mins to get one. 5 people were inside including the driver, i had already called my wife & informed her, i was on my way, i noticed that the driver was on high speed. I asked him severally to slow down but he kept ignoring, it was the third time that he finally responded angrily, saying that he has been driving for more than 13yrs & that i shouldn't teach him his job.

I seemed to be the only one complaining, as i noticed the other passengers were all quiet about it so, i decided to let go & stay mute as well. It was after about 10 mins of driving when, it all happened. The driver was trying to over take a heavy truck. After that, i only saw myself at the hospital after about 12hrs & i was told that, i was the only person in the vehicle that survived the accdnt & thats how i got to this stage of having just One leg

Well, i thank God for life, though ,i cry at times especially when i come across my old pictures. I remember, how i used to walk on both legs, but it's ok now😥🤦😭 i believe God has a reason for every circumstance in our lives. He saved me for a reason & I'm thankful"

One time last months I was traveling from oshodi to berger, when we got to Gbagada I notice our korogbe was moving slowly and other vehicles was just overtaking us and I was in front seat beside the driver. Don’t know how I turned to see the driver sleeping while driving on Gbagada express way, Omoh! But then it was raining and everywhere was chilling, I then suggested he should wind down a little so the breeze from d window can remind him that he’s still at work. Around ogudu I noticed he was still struggling with sleep I had to stop at estate bus top and took another bus. That driver was obviously tired and needed to rest. I don’t know what he’s passing through Abi the thing is passing through him the only agency I had was to port. Some of them drink lots of satchets. Madam sef Dey worry for house, oga dey wait for him balance for those that drives hire purchase.
So there’s pressure on these men but we quietly avoid them as much as we can.
I’m so sorry bruh, God loves you soo much

Very unfortunate, but you are a winner anyway. The plan of the devil was to cut short your life through the careless driver but GOD said no. When there is life, there is hope!

May we never fall into such situations in Jesus name, amen.

Endeavor to speak up when driver is not doing well. We don't have any spare life.

At the end of the day the child will develop more affection for the mother even after all these experiences

God will see you through. To other people reading this: if your instinct is telling you that you are in a wrong vehicle and the driver is adamant, just telling him to drop you at the nearest bus station and forfeit the fare and take another vehicle.

So sorry about your experience.

I rarely use public transport because they are so proud, ignorant and
difficult to tame. I'd rather book a ride.

I get off bikes mostly when they become stubborn and reckless (especially those abokis)

Different things happening to different people. Everyone in his/her world living the life. Some happy, some sad, some in pains, some in love, some in the hospital. Alot happens to everyone in the world every day.

Some are in kidnapper's den. My cousin was kidnapped on Sunday and freed yesterday. We his immediate family and friends know what we had to go through. The emotional truma and stuff.

Demand that he stops for you to come down, make troubles until he either calm down or drop you off.
