Former Super Eagles midfielder Ogenyi Onazi has survived a very scary car accident in Lagos. The incident happened on Monday morning when the vehicle he was traveling in was involved in a serious crash. Photos from the scene show that the car suffered heavy damage, leaving many fans shocked that anyone could come out of it alive. Thankfully, the veteran footballer escaped the crash without any life-threatening injuries, though the vehicle itself appears to be completely wrecked.

Onazi, who was a key part of Nigeria’s 2013 Africa Cup of Nations winning team, was reportedly heading out for his daily activities when the mishap occurred. Witnesses at the scene expressed gratitude that the midfielder was able to walk away from such a violent impact. While the exact cause of the accident is still being investigated, early reports suggest that the road conditions or a sudden mechanical issue might have played a role. Emergency responders arrived at the site shortly after the crash to ensure the area was safe and to provide necessary assistance.

Onazi has been a popular figure in Nigerian football for over a decade, known for his hard work and dedication on the pitch. This survival is being described by many as a miracle, considering the state of the car after the collision. The player is expected to undergo further medical checkups just to be sure there are no internal injuries that were not immediately visible.

As he recovers from the shock of the accident, his fans are just happy that their " midfield general" is safe and sound. We expect the player to release an official statement soon to give more details on his condition and to thank those who have reached out to him.

We are so glad Ogenyi Onazi is safe! Please share your prayers and well wishes for him in the comments.
