Teenage boys narrowly escape death in road accident (photos)

An emotional father shares a story of how his teenage boys narrowly escaped death on their way back from boarding school.

Father and son at the hospital

Facebook user Jasper Ndubuaku, took to his page to share how his travail ended in praise after his sons experienced what would have been a tragic ordeal.

The father of three, narrated how his two sons were involved in an accident and his first son who had just graduated from Kings college, Lagos, on July 14, almost died from electric shock.

The boys had been travelling in an ABC commuter bus when the incident occurred. A grateful Jasper however said neither the transport company nor the electricity company has contacted him.

Here’s what he wrote below:

“The devil came calling. And GOD said NO. I’ve been in Lagos since Monday 25th July looking after my Son Who just escaped death and is lying critically ill in a hospital in FESTAC town. My sons Obioha and Toby who are students of Kings college Lagos boarded an ABC bus to Owerri on Sunday the 24th of July at the Amuwo odofin park of the company. The bus which was supposed to leave did not depart until about 9 30 am only to break down at Cele bus stop, less than 5 km away. Passengers in the vehicle testify that the motor mechanic in the bus confessed that he told the management that the bus was faulty and can not make that trip but was forced to follow the bus and effect repairs if it develops faults. On disembarking from the bus, my son was hit by the radiation heat of a 33Kv armored cable which Eko Discos left uncovered and exposed. God’s work no 1. My son survived the more than 4400Kv electric shock. 2. He was thrown into the canal by the shock where Good Samaritan passengers in the bus rushed and picked and dragged him up.

3. His brother was in the bus and was composed enough to have borrowed a passenger’s phone to call me. A lot has happened between then and now but most importantly my son is alive. I have had the task of carrying him when he cannot walk. He had undergone a major surgery on the leg and the consultant tells me he has to observe him for another week or two. Meanwhile I’m fixed here in Lagos to the exclusion of every other thing nursing him. I remain most grateful to God that he spared his life. God is great. However I m shocked and surprised that ABC transport company that I handed my under aged sons to transport back to Owerri has as I post this not officially informed me of the whereabout of my children neither has the Eko discos on their attempts to kill my son. The bills are on me according to the Doctor of the hospital my son is being treated. I will soldier on and save my son first. Every other thing will follow thereafter. Please help me all and thank God. Only He would have made this possible. May his name be praised.”
