Narrating his lucky escape, Rev. Obi said he got into the car and was about to drive off when it exploded.
“I witnessed a wedding at a close-by parish. I drove back to my parish. On entering the parish premises I saw a Rev. Sr. with her group fetching firewood in the school compound.
I stopped the car and branched to show them the proper direction to get better firewood.
As I got back into the car, and was about to drive off, there was an explosion. I was lucky to have the door opened. I am save. Thanks be to God,” he said.
