Join me in appreciating God for my life and the life of others.

We left Owerri enroute Kaduna a day before yesterday at about 6pm in a G.U.O luxurious bus.

We never had an idea we were travelling with a very faulty car. We only noticed after we passed Onitsha and stopped at a gas station to re-fill.

From here(Onitsha) till we got to Lokoja,we travelled without functioning brakes(the driver had to improvise with the clutch when necessary). At Lokoja,the driver had to fixthe brakes himself and after like an hour or so,we continued on our way to Abuja where we had the accident(Zuba precicely).

Our bus ran into a trailer and a small car.
Although we came down fine and uninjured,many people were bleading in the car we hit.

The driver's ability to control and park the car was described as a miracle by eye witnesses but we still thank God for everything.


P.S: I've given my life to christ today grin grin

God protect us All.

But a luxurious without functioning brakes is = suicide.

High time this public transport owners do ensure the safety of lives of their Passengers before having profit in mind.

You guys departed from Owerri by 6pm. That means it was a night journey.
That people who put any value to their lives still travel at night in this country, is beyond me.

This should give you an inkling of what goes on. Why would a sensible driver still travel at night with faulty brakes, carrying over 50 souls on board?
Perhaps I'm overreacting.
And perhaps you will still go on a night trip after this. It's your life sha.

Thank God for your life

OP so you guys are not listening to Ipob's instructions that all Igbos vacate Northern Nigeria?

The rate at which Igbos are moving to the North and SW is alarming
