Speaking with newsmen from his hospital bed, Atorise reportedly said his being alive is a miracle, noting that he was only revived after he was rushed to the hospital from the scene of the incident as he had earlier passed out as a result of the devastating effect of the deadly weapon unleashed on him by his attackers, who actually left him lifeless.
