Musician and entertainer, Darey Art-Alade and his wife Deola are giving thanks to God for a narrow death escape on the Third Mainland Bridge on Friday afternoon.

Deola posted a video of the vehicle engulfed in flames on her Instagram page on Saturday, revealing that the incident happened a day earlier.
She captioned the post, “Yesterday, around 4pm, our car caught fire on the 3rd Mainland Bridge and burnt to the ground.
“It was a shocking and painful experience, but we’re incredibly grateful that the driver made it out safely. No lives were lost, and that’s what truly matters.
Moments like this remind us how quickly things can change and how unimportant material things become in the face of life itself.
“We’re not sharing this for sympathy but to remind someone that things can be replaced. Lives cannot.
We’re choosing to remain thankful to God for protection, for perspective, and for the quiet strength to keep going.
“If you’re navigating a sudden loss of any kind, we hope this reminds you: we can rebuild. We can begin again and find the strength to keep going.
One breath, one prayer, one step at a time.
We give thanks in all things. 💛 THANK YOU JESUS!!!
“Thank you to everyone that stopped to help.”
