An aide of former Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola, Alhaji Ahmed Jebe, has recalled how he almost lost his life in an accident.

Jebe posted the accident scene on Facebook, with pictures of his damaged car, thanking Allah for his safety.

Contacted, he told The Nation that the accident occurred last Monday in Mile 2 on, Lagos-Badagry Expressway.

According to him, the accident, which happened at 11:50am, involved a lorry and six other vehicles.

The former special assistant to Fashola said he was going to Lagos State University (LASU) when the lorry hit him from behind, while he hit the car in his front.

He said: “I was on my way to LASU, about getting to Mile 2 bus stop. We were all lined up in the traffic when the lorry behind me that carried blocks from one construction company rammed into my car. It hit me from the back and I hit the vehicle in front of me. In the process of reversing, he rammed into another vehicle by my side. We later learnt that about five other vehicles were involved.”

Jebe said he didn’t know something had hit his car until he rammed into the car in front.

“It was like a movie; very shocking. When he hit me, I didn’t know it was my car until I hit the vehicle in front of me and I said: ‘Who hit my car this way?’ I couldn’t come out immediately as I was waiting to see if I was free to come out from the side. When I alighted, I asked the lorry driver why he hit my car and that was when I discovered that he had hit other cars also. So, I waited till the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) officials came with the traffic police officers,” he said.
