Nollywood star actress ,Omotola Jalade ekeinde was on the set of Teco Benson’s new movie Blood on the river last week and a near disaster was miraculously averted after they were left stranded and floating for more than three hours in the speed boat conveying the cast and crew from the Atlas Cove where she had gone for shooting.
Narrating the story to newsmen , Actor Eddie Ogbona who was also on the speed boat at that time said ;
“It was indeed a twist of fate because, we’d actually gone to shoot some scenes for the movie ‘Blood On The River’ and there we were stranded on the Atlantic ocean,The boat man didn’t realise he hadn’t enough diesel in the boat until we were mid-way on the Atlantic.
Suddenly the engine stopped right in the middle of the sea and we were left stranded.
“As the boat man made frantic effort to reach his colleagues, our boat stayed adrift for three hours”.as we prayed for God’s intervention, the boat drifted towards the water front of the America Embassy,and that was when we sensed trouble,The security men threatened us with guns because they thought we were pirates. My brother, it was God’s intervention that saved us from being shot at.”
Thank God for them oooo we for don dey hear another story.

This is not a comment but a subtle correction. Her name is OMOTOLA you have OMOTALA in your headline.plus its "escape" not "escapes" as you're referring to more than one person.
Thanks dearie for the corrections. I sincerely appreciate.
