“The Nigerian army tried to assassinate me this evening. I thank God for the speed of my Benz for helping Me escape their hot pursuit even after shooting about 3 bullets at me.
My only crime was just overtaking them.
I’ve been crying since, I can’t believe I survived this. 😭”

“Was it a convoy?, I heard that you’re not allowed to overtake a convoy and for security reasons they’re allowed to shoot first and ask questions later, doesn’t make sense to me but that’s what I hear the law is” @ZakiyyahtuA
