Nigerian actor, Deyemi Okanlawon, has recounted his ordeal in the hands of thugs in Lagos.
The actor, taking to his Twitter page on Thursday, said the incident happened when he and his assistant were on transit.
He said “Never been so livid! Guy scratches my car and my assistant went with him so we could settle the matter down the road. Guy drives another way, gets out of his car then starts shouting “THIEF”!
“Before I could figure [out] what was going on, area boys gathered & started beating my assistant!
“Of course, the area boys, after one of them chopped slap for the stupidity of laying hands on my guy, turned on the guy once I showed up. I now had to choose between payback and de-escalating the situation!
“He was really going to let area boys injure my assistant!
“A part of me actually wished he had tried to fight instead of pleading. I just know someone would have bled!”
Okanlawon added “Omo, we were raised to value peace but have the training to really cause damage.
“Still shaken up by how close I came to physically hurting another human being this morning! God o me that my career is just starting to make sense pls deliver me from evil!”
