A Facebook user, Obodo Amaka Felicity took to the platform to recount a near life experience she had  with a gunman while she was coming back from the market.

According to her, she escaped death after getting shot by the unknown gunman, she felt a sharp blow, like she had been hit with a stone, but had no idea she had been shot until she saw blood dripping down her body.

An x-ray has shown that the bullet is lodged too close to her lungs and because of how delicate this area is, the bullet can’t be removed at the moment.
