Actor Lekan Olatunji has opened up on the ghastly motor accident he survived in 2022, revealing that the crash left him hospitalised for three months and battling memory loss.
In a recent interview, Lekan recounted how he narrowly escaped death after undergoing multiple surgeries.
“There was a time I had an accident and it wasn’t easy, because I was in the hospital for three months with a memory loss, so I thank God for His grace,” he said.
“Here I am doing well. We should give the doctors their own praise and God His glory. Even my doctor friends were shocked and said they wouldn’t believe me if they hadn’t seen me, because they saw my skull. I went through series of surgeries but I thank God because it wasn’t easy.”
The actor noted that one of his doctor friends was especially stunned that he survived, saying the level of trauma he sustained could have killed him.
Recall that in 2022, Lekan shared a video from his hospital bed with his head and arms bandaged. A source close to the actor later confirmed that he had survived a near-fatal accident.
Tragically, a year after the accident, Lekan lost his wife, who was also the mother of his three children.
Speaking about her death, the actor said he spent millions of naira on her health and surgery before she passed.
He added that though it was painful, he had to submit to the will of God, describing Him as unquestionable.
