A Nigerian lady, Akintade Adepemi has opened up on how she and her friend, Olamide, escaped death after the vehicle they boarded in Lagos, caught fire just few weeks to their graduation from the university.
Sharing her testimony on social media, she said they had boarded a vehicle to Oshodi to pick up fabrics for their final year graduation party.
The vehicle caught fire right before the bridge before they managed to jump out.
A video she posted shows some passengers jumping out of the burning vehicle while people pulled others out.
“God did this !!! Honestly we still can’t phantom how we are still alive today,” she wrote.
”Few weeks back as part of the final year committee. We had to go and pick cloth (Ankara) for our Owambe party
Na so we enter bus go Oshodi and from there we decided to also check out Lagos so that we will know we weighed all our options
That’s how we boarded this bus at Oshodi ( bolade ) just before the bridge and the bus caught fire right before the bridge
How we jumped out we don’t know
How we are still here today we can’t comprehend
How that fire that blasted. It is definitely not by our power. Not by our might. Not by who run down pass
In that moment as I was shaking I asked Olamide to make a video. I would usually not do that but I don’t know what pushed it. I believe that whatever it is wants us to share our testimony
Which is why we are doing this to remind somebody somewhere that God is always God even in our unfaithfulness. He never fails to
God kept us. He made sure that we stay alive to witness our sign out and many more.
For us this sign out is not just graduating from school. It is God showing himself that he is the author and finisher of our faith
In case you see us undignified. No vex. It’s because the number of our scars are the number of our testimonies. ”
