“God Gave Me A Second Chance” – Broda Shaggi Breaks Silence Months After Near-D£@th Experience On Set
Nigerian skit maker, Samuel Animashaun Perry, popularly known as Broda Shaggi, has broken his silence months after his near-death experience, recounting how he was hit by a str@y búll_t.
In a detailed interview shared on his YouTube page on Wednesday, October 21, 2026, the comedian said the incident happened on March 9, 2026, during what was supposed to be a normal workday.
According to him, it was just after a brand activation outing. He and his team had finished shooting and were leaving the location around the Sango-Ota bridge area when tragedy struck.
“We were done shooting and got stuck in traffic. Suddenly, I heard a loud b@ng and everywhere went silent. I could see people talking, but I couldn’t hear anything. Then I touched my hip, saw bl00d, I got to know I had been hit by a str@y búll_t,” he recounted.
Shaggi said he went unconscious shortly after and was overwhelmed with fear, praying all the way to the hospital.
“I was totally unconscious till I got to the hospital. All that was in my mind was just to survive, I didn’t want to d!£,” he said.
He narrated that when he got to the first hospital in the Alakuko area of Lagos, medical personnel tried to cut his clothes to locate where the búllet h!t.
“When I got to the first hospital, they tried to cut my clothes to see where the búllet h!t. They took me to another hospital because they said they didn’t have enough equipment to handle me. I was sweating,” he said.
He was later transferred to another medical facility in the Government Residential Area of Ikeja, where he was swiftly moved into the emergency room.
“We got to the other hospital, they were swift, put me in the emergency room. By that time, my mind was settled that I was going to make it through this moment,” he added.
The comedian said he was hospitalized for months, unable to move his leg and uncertain if he would ever perform again.
“I was hospitalized for months, and I felt so us£l£ss. I would see my colleagues post skits and burst into tears because I wasn’t sure I would ever be able to do it again. I was scared people would have forgotten me by the time I returned,” he said.
He described March 9 as “a day in my life I wished never happened” and titled his comeback video “The Second Chance,” thanking God for survival and promising fans exciting new projects.
