The tragic incident took place on the 18th of November 2020 at Azire New Church Junction Bamenda around the early hours of 8:00 Pm where a gang of hired assassins trailing the President from church to kill, fired four times on his car but he miraculously escaped with sustained injuries which was immediately handled through strict Medical attention thereafter by a cream of specialized Medical Doctors of the St. Mary Hospital.
Thank God, he responded to treatment and after regaining health quickly Prince Ituen Otobong chose to come back to the house of God and give him all the thanks for sparing his life through special Grace.
In so doing he invited the Nigerian community who gathered in their numbers at the Church of Christ to jointly and joyfully praise God for saving the life of their President.
That was on Sunday the 13 of December 2020 at Independent street Bamenda, where Mass took place. During the high point of the praise and thanks giving service, one of the chief celebrant Evangelist Andrew Ihedi in his preaching and teachings called on all present to see the “Hand of God in every situation” whether good or Bad. That God knows why and how in every situation, which is why he is in special control of every situation.
The President General of the Nigerian Union who doubles as a Minister of God, Chief celebrant and convener of the said thanks giving service on his part, recounted how he narrowly escaped death thrice since November 2018 till date and the last one almost took his life away, a month ago this 2020. In one he had a car accident, the other was fire consuming his car and the most recent were hired Gunmen who opened fire at him in the car four times. To God be the glory, he recounted calling on all Nigerians to believe in the power of God and shun all fear.
Speaking to the Press in a rather hopeful tongue, he praised the Lord for what happened, called on God to forgive those hired to assassinate him and thanked the Nigerian community for their spiritual, moral and material support. In another direction, he encouraged his Nigerian counterparts not to be scared of what happened to him, that they should go about their business activities and have nothing to do with the internal crisis affecting Cameroon. He added, that the Cameroon government should seek for fast ways on ending the armed conflict as it escalates.
