Bukola Arugba who is now a survivor reported that they were going slowly on the third mainland bridge when a car approached from behind and gave them a strong hit with apparent intent. As a result, her car turned and struck other angles.
She added that during this period they were just shouting Jesus until the car made a turn and sat on the edge of the bridge.
In a lenghty, Bukola Arugba while sharing the video wrote; “This happened a day to my birthday, I kept this to celebrate and thank GOD ALMIGHTY first, my KEEPER , OLOWOGBOGBORO HALLELUJAH 🙌🏾.
“We were on third mainland bridge, driving home gently, road was free, suddenly a vehicle came from behind as though it wanted to overtake us, but he turned abruptly and gave the car a hard hit that looked intentional, my car started turning, hitting different angles and all we could shout was JESUS, it faced d bridge, we thought it was over, but suddenly it made a turn , and sat at the edge of the bridge, surely there is power in JESUS name 🙌🏾👍🏽.
“We came down unhurt , and started calling friends , while waiting, I started sensing something bad was about to happen again, then I started praying at the top of my voice by the car. Non of the passing vehicles stopped cos it was late. I had barely stopped praying when another vehicle came from no where and gave the car a harder and stronger bash repositioning the car by automatically lifting the car to d road , u don’t want to imagine the state I was left .
How and why would my car be bashed twice within d space of an hour, if this was plotted in a movie scene it would be tagged “unrealistic” but hey ? This is real ! JESUS !!!Please help me thank GOD ALMIGHTY for keeping me again , and thank my friend who chooses to be anonymous, who came all d way that midnight to our rescue . Help me shout seven HALLELUYAH 🙌🏾
Car less not lifeless #Halleluyah 🙌🏾.”

Eloswag, a former contestant on Big Brother Naija Season 7, has broken his silence following the release of his private video online.
The reality star reportedly uploaded a clip featuring himself and an unidentified woman on his Snapchat account at approximately 3 a.m. on Sunday.
Though Eloswag swiftly deleted the video, it had already caught the attention of the internet.
The explicit content quickly gained traction after being reposted by the controversial gossip blog, Gistlover, sparking widespread conversations across social media platforms.
In response to the incident, Eloswag took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his frustration and consider possible legal action.
In a now-deleted post, he wrote, “I mistakenly posted a video on my Snapchat by 3am and deleted it immediately, guess who has the video? GISTLOVER? How? Please, can I sue? Because it doesn’t make sense.”

The reality star’s reaction highlights the challenges celebrities face when intimate content finds its way online.
While some supporters have shown empathy, others have engaged in heated debates about the responsibility of public figures in handling their digital content.
Eloswag’s predicament places him alongside other Nigerian celebrities who have dealt with similar scandals, such as Moyo Lawal, Tiwa Savage, Oxlade, and James Brown, whose private videos have previously surfaced online.
Legal experts have weighed in on Eloswag’s potential case, noting that while pursuing legal action against individuals or platforms that share such content can be complex, it is not impossible.
The development has reignited discussions on digital privacy and the ethical responsibilities of content-sharing platforms.
As Eloswag’s fans and critics await further updates, the incident underscores the precarious nature of online privacy and the far-reaching consequences of a single momentary lapse.
