Popular Nigerian comedian, Samuel Animashaun Perry, better known as Broda Shaggi, has recounted how he narrowly escaped death after being hit by a stray bullet while filming at the Sango-Ota Bridge in Ogun State in March 2026.
Recounting his ordeal, the skitmaker said the incident left him traumatised and unable to engage in the activities he loved. He also expressed his fear of dying.
Broda Shaggi shared the experience on his YouTube channel.
He said: “All of a sudden, all I heard was a loud bang. Everywhere was silent. But I could still see people moving outside, people talking, but I couldn’t hear what they were saying. It was just total silence in the car.”
“I didn’t want to die. I just don’t want to die.”
The comedian also spoke about how his condition affected his ability to work while receiving treatment in the hospital.
“I feel very useless. While in the hospital, I could not act, I could not dance, sing or do whatever I loved,” he said.
He further explained that he struggled to imagine a life in which he could no longer create content at his usual pace.
“I couldn’t imagine myself not being able to drop six skits in a month,” he said.
