Ayo Olaiya says he almost lost his eye in an accident [FULL DETAILS HERE]
Ayo Olaiya,
son of octogenarian and enterprising high life musician, Sir Victor Olaiya, has
now opened up about the accident which almost cost him his eye.
Narrating
how he survived the accident,
"My
auto accident story was very horrible. I was coming from a movie location at
Agbado crossing area of Lagos state.
I was going
for another production meeting at Agege and suddenly, a motorcycle rider
crossed my car recklessly.
In an
attempt to avert a head-on collision with the motorcyclist and save his life, I
swerved my car off the road and accidentally rammed into an electric poll
beside the road.
The impact
of the smash was devastating. Immediately, I lost consciousness, only to wake
up on the hospital bed after some hours.
I thank God
I’m alive today with my two eyes because the accident nearly made me blind.
I was later
told that a good Samaritan took me to a nearby hospital with the help of the
producer of the movie I was actually going meet. He said they immediately took
me to the hospital.
I can’t
really remember the name of the hospital I was taken to because I was
unconscious. All that matters to me then was my sight. I spent just three days
at the hospital and the accident only affected my face. My sight regained
strength and I can see clearly now."
Eyewitness
say Ayo Olaiya, was returning from a movie shoot location before the
unfortunate incident happened.
