Editor's Review

A trailer plying the same route as his car suddenly lost control and rammed into his car.

NTV Political Editor Ben Kitili is a man grateful to God after escaping unhurt in a ghastly accident.

In a statement on his Facebook page, Kitili shared images of his car that was somewhat damaged on the sides after being hit by a trailer.

He revealed that he and two other passengers escaped unhurt and added that it was a miraculous escape.

"Mungu anapenda watu wake sana. Always thank God when you go out and get back home in one piece. My two passengers and I are okay. My baby (my car) not so much but we thank God," he said.
