The surprised incident
Hi everyone and welcome to my blog
It was on Sunday morning and we had an amazing Sunday, as we listened to songs from different sub groups and the message from the man of God.
So after the church service, we were exchanging pleasantries with friends and families and got to snap pictures, as it happens that most of us do meet only on Sundays due to work and some other things
I and and some of my friends were heading home when we heard a sound of a car which comes as an accident, you know how such things do sound now, so alarming that it drew the attention of almost everyone in the area
It was a car that hit a little boy who was trying to cross the road, though the boy didn't die but he was unconcious due to shock 😔
The whole incident got people really worried, as we heard so many different stories on how it happened but since we weren't there to witness it, we didn't know which is true
Buh I personally saw the car when I heard the sound, all my thoughts was maybe the car tye burst or something, it was when the car left I later found out it was an accident, the driver from the beginning did Asif he wanted to stop but the driver drove and pass Asif nothing actually happened, I was really hurt to be sincere, like why will you hit someone, even though it was not intentional, at least he should have stop to see if the person is still breathing or not, but the man went and did asif nothing happened
You know how people behave now, some curse him, some were reigning different insult on him, some were saying he won't see peace , he was heartless, BLA BLA BLA
Everyone was carried away by the sudden incident, it was really pathetic🥲
At long last, two youth took the guy to the hospital and the parent of the boy followed by
As we were about leaving, I was expressing how I felt, disappointed by what the driver did, by not stopping by to at least to check on the boy
So there was this woman who told me something, that assuming this man stopped, they would have done something to the man or the car (maybe hurting him or. Destroying his car) as everyone saw the condition of the little boy, she tried explaining somethings to me and said he might pass to the station to report himself and how the incident happened.
But then again, I live close to a mobile base, when the incident happened, and they noticed he didn't stop by, some youth followed him, while two police men also followed up.
I didn't know if the driver was caught, but if his intention was to stop at the police station and the youth and some of the police caught him, how would he explain himself to the angry youth, by telling then his intention, would they listen or believe him?
Or if he wasn't cought, and he didn't plan to stop at the police station could it be he was trying to escape?
Lemme know your take on this please cause it's really confusing
I know it's a whole lot to handle such matter, maybe he was scared of what the environment could do to him, maybe he was also on an emergency, maybe it was something he couldn't handle as well,
So many thoughts were just running through my mind, I was seeing reasons to understand with him if only the questions I asked myself was true but then again, I also felt for the little boy as he was in a critical condition
What could be the reason of such behavior?
What do you think about the whole incident?

Hmmm, it's sad how hit and run has gradually become the norm in many societies in this time. The main cause of this if I'm asked is reckless driving amongst bad road and all. I really don't think the man had plans of reporting himself or anything, we know how that might end for him. I feel he was actually escaping the scene cause he didn't want to get involved in the accident he had caused. Thank God the boy just fell unconscious and it wasn't death. I pray he gets better soonest🙏
Amen oh my dear
Thank you for your kind response 😊
This incident is similar to what I've witnessed before. A driver hit a boy who was trying to cross the road. He stopped to check if the boy was okay, unfortunately the people around rush to scene and instead of attending to the boy, they beat up the drive, damage his car and almost wanted to burn it.
I'm not supporting the driver for running away. It could be that he wanted to stop but seeing the multiple coming, he got scared and ran. He best he could do is to report himself to the police.
On a second thought, why will a little boy be crossing the road by himself, at least someone should be there to assist him. I just hope he gets better 😔
Toh, a lot to say on this matter sha
May God help us all
Thank you for your kind response 😊
Hmm, it's the lord almighty who keeps us, may he continually keep in Jesus name.
Amen.....
Thank you 😊
Whether he was scared or not it is an obligation for him to stop and check on the kid because of the harm, injury he has caused for the child. Running away will not solve the problem and if he end up been arrested then the case and situation will be worst than before.
But I believe he did the wrong thing by choosing not to stop and running away
I feel so too, we all need to be intentional about our actions
Cause we do not know where life will actually take us to...
Thanks for reading through 😊
Well... I sincerely won't blame some of the drivers because of how bad the situation will escalate if they stop.
But I prefer they should report at the nearest station, that's the best to avoid the wrath of the whole public on them.
Do you know sometimes people that cross the road too are to be blame for such incidents? I've seen how even grown up people will enter the road as if they are out of their minds leaving the driver clueless of what to do.
While accidents occurs at anytime and must time subconsciously, we can take precautions and reduce the rates..
Thank you for sharing this with us @iamgracia2
Yeah.... Everyone need to be very careful when it comes to this, I wonder why some people will always be careless when crossing the road Asif the owned their lives....
Same goes to some drivers, they should avoid reckless driving for Christ sake
Well, May God help us sha
Thanks for reading through 😊🙏
