Two Anambra Governorship Aspirants In A Auto Crash. by Donchyke39(m): 7:27am On Jul 27, 2013
Two members of the House of Representatives who are equally aspirants in the November 16 governorship election in Anambra State, Hon. Mrs. Uche Ekwunife and Hon. Afam Ogene, were on Friday involved in an auto accident in which they narrowly escaped death.

Ekwunife who is the Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Environment along with Ogene, Deputy Chairman, House Committee on Media and Public Affairs were in a Lexus bullet-proof jeep travelling from Abuja to the East when the accident occurred along the airport road within the federal capital territory, FCT in the early hours of Friday.

The lawmakers who were injured in the crash are said to be receiving treatment at the National Hospital, Abuja where they were rushed to after the crash.

An eyewitness account disclosed that the vehicle swerved and somersaulted several times before landing in a ditch by the side of the airport road. The aspirants and their driver were immediately moved to the hospital by men of the Federal Road Safety Corps.

The accounts said the accident occurred as the driver was trying to avoid collision with a fuel tanker.

When contacted, Hon. Ekwunife described the incident as a miraculous survival. “I thank God for His mercies and grace upon my life and the lives of everyone in the vehicle. Seeing the car alone you will not believe that the occupants survived. But all of us are in very stable condition. I am very grateful to God for His mercies”, Ekwunife said.

Her driver, Mr. Ejidike said “I believe it was madam’s act of kindness that made God save all of us. Before we left the house this morning, madam, in her usual kindness gave money to everybody including her neighbours’ gatemen who saw her when she was leaving. The gate men rained prayers of God’s divine protection on her.”

In his reaction, Hon. Ogene thanked God for sparing their lives from the snare of death. He said only the hand of God could have been responsible for saving people from accidents such as this.

Anyway, I thank my Jesus!

Bunch of backward moroooons with poverty infested and religiously brainwashed heads.

If such accident happened in Europe or US, check the kind of comments people would write.

As a driver, you dont swerve SUVs or Buses due to their heights. Jesus has nothing to do with vehicles, he used horses during his time here.

We are supposed to be discussing on how to avoid such occurences, not shouting ' thank you Jesus and Allah' all over the internet invented by men.

They survived to die another day. That is the fate of all humans.

Thank God for sparing their lives. I hope it was not caused by over speeding.Some politicians drive as if they are immortals. I was practically forced out of that airport road one day by politicians hurrying to the airport. Most of them have no regard for traffic rules and their activities are not within the scope of Road Safety officials. Accident can be caused by bad road but the most fatal of them result from reckless driving and over speeding on good roads. I am looking forward to the day that our politicians will start obeying traffic rules and consider other road users too. It doesn't matter how sophisticated your vehicle is, even bomb-proof vehicles can crash and kill their occupants. Once again thank God for Madam Ekwunife and her co-travelers

This is a clear case of mishandling a machine. Overspeeding and abrupt manuvering of an SUV.

FRSC shd take in the driver for endangering other road users lives.

Madam and Oga are equally culpable for not cautioning their driver.

The driver should be cautioned, they drive as if their life has spare when carrying a politician. He is here praising madam for sharing stolen money, if they have died his story would have changed to 'it's political enemies'
