Super Eagles, striker Victor Boniface survived a car accident on Sunday, hours after guiding Leverkusen to a 2-1 win over Eintracht Frankfurt in the German Bundesliga.
In a now-deleted post on his social media accounts, the 23-year-old shared video footage and photos of his smashed car after an accident.
Boniface wrote, “God is the greatest” and “God says my time hasn’t come.”
German tabloid, Bild, revealed that the Bayer Leverkusen wonder kid was only a passenger in the car that collided with a truck.
“Boniface was on the A3 between Bad Camberg and Idstein on his way to Frankfurt Airport shortly after seven on a training-free Sunday, where he wanted to pick up friends, when the Mercedes collided with a truck,” the website wrote.
“The striker was not behind the wheel himself; he was just a passenger.
“According to the police, the driver lost control of the car due to fatigue and skidded from the middle lane to the right into the truck. The collision even caused the Mercedes to overturn.
“When asked by BILD, Bayer Leverkusen said, “He is fine.” Boniface only had two minor injuries to his hand. The driver and Boniface were treated and examined in the hospital and have now arrived safely back in Cologne.”
