Lawyer and Actor, Femi Adebayo has been talking about how his car was attacked in Lagos by some gunmen on Thursday.
The Kwara State-born actor made announcement on his Instagram page on Thursday evening.
According to his account, his car was accosted by the said gunmen around the 7UP Bus Stop, close to the old Toll Gate on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. He said it happened at 12 noon.
The two gunmen, as he recounted, came down from their vehicle and tried to force his car door open and when they were unable to, they bashed his vehicle with the butt of the AK47s they were holding.
In the post, which showed no photos of the allegedly damaged vehicle, Adebayo said he was grateful for safety on the road.
See his post:
“I thank God for his protection over me and mine. I know my job comes with its risk. Working as an actor and politician requires regular movement.
“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. Two men alighted from the vehicle bearing AK47s. They tried to force the doors open. They kept hitting my car with the butt of their guns. 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 the short time, that 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 maneuver 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. 🙏#FemiAdebayo”
