"Yesterday I just driving past this road, the fuel scarcity stuff made the people block the road, so I was trying to just pass. The next thing, I hit the lady's car and I didn't even know I did that. So, when she stopped my vehicle, I stopped and she was like I hit and I said how? And the next thing, she said at the back. "So, I asked her 'can I have your number madam? I will call you or can we get out of the road. Because we were blocking the road and the next thing I saw four guys running down, we were trying to move away and I saw the guys running down. That was how the woman held my side mirror of my car, and that is how she fell. It is not like I hit her and ran away, no! So that was what happened." He further revealed that he was arrested by police operatives, as he only went to the Police station to write his statement.
