Actor and politician, Femi Adebayo, has been thanking God for safety and for sparing him from gunmen attack at CMD Road, Ikosi Ketu.

According to the actor who narrated the incidence on his Instagram page, though he was not in the vehicle at the time of the occurrence, the two gunmen alighted bearing AK47s from a car, after they had crossed his vehicle at the U-Turn. They kept hitting his car with the butt of their gun and broke the door handle, leaving dents on different parts of his vehicle.

He wrote: “Today, just at the U-Turn coming from CMD Magodo around 7UP heading towards Ojota, my vehicle was accosted by men in a Toyota Corolla. They crossed my vehicle at the U-Turn. 2 men alighted from the vehicle bearing AK47s. They tried to force the doors open. They kept hitting my car with the butt of their gun. In the process, they broke the door handle and left dents on different parts of my vehicle.

“All these happened in full view of other vehicles and other individuals passing by. In a short time this happened, no one came to help. The guys were obviously not Policemen, they didn’t wear any Insignia of the force. They wore plain clothes and had extra guts to perform this act during the day at about 12 noon.

“Their assumption will have been that I was in the vehicle but my driver was the only one enroute to my location. With swiftness, he was able to manoeuvre and speed off. I thank God for keeping him. We are all still shocked at this but grateful to God that no life was lost in the process.”
