Lady survives fall into an abandoned soakaway pit after a concrete slab caved beneath her feet (photos)

'Saved from the pit of hell' -  A Nigerian woman named Christina Adegbaju took to her social media accounts today to describe how she survived after falling into an abandoned soakaway pit. Narrating the terrible experience, she wrote,
"I saw my life flash in front of me for 5 minutes and I thought, so this is how it feels to be helpless and confused. One minute , I was standing on solid ground, the next minute I was on air, as the concrete caved way beneath my feet. For 5 minutes, I shouted and screamed for help,no one heard my cry and the ground was still sinking , I had to claw my way out before the whole structure could collapse.
I had been standing on an abandoned Soakaway pit. Thank God there were no rains , Bless God he is still faithful, when it seems no one heard. Only he could have done this. He is still a miracle working God. Yahweh.

  24. Oh my God! This happened to me at Nsugbe, Anambra while I was in the state on a training. I had been hanging out with my colleagues, so in that groove state, I decided to go pick a student friend of mine-wink.It was quite late & drizzling. The guys here would know how these things go? Especially when one has had a couple of drinks.I drove down to her off campus block.it was drizzling & dark.There was no light in that area that night & they had all turned in.Everywhere was quiet. Now,a bush part walkway leads to her own block behind.I have a phobia & dread for snakes & didn't want to risk walking down that bush part inside that darkness.So,I put on my vehicle headlamps to show me where I was going & made my way to her apartment down the slope.On getting to her apartment,the poor girl was so sleepy & was just talking gibberish. In frustration, I decided to leave the poor girl alone & go sleep all by myself with my 'conji' back to the place we were quartered.Now as I stepped out of her gate,my wahalla started.My vehicle's headlamps had completely blinded me.In the surrounding pitch darkness,the lights had me pinned down,it was so bad, I couldn't see 'jack' in front of me.it had started raining.Shielding my eyes with my hands & trying to navigate my way to the vehicle. I was trying to go round the reach of the headlamps, gropping my way blindly along the building fence,the I heard & felt my feet make contact with zinc sheets & the next second it was SPLASH!!! I had fallen into a full soak way pit! I didn't know how to swim,I just knew I had to stay afloat in there.Didn't know how deep the thing was.I held unto anything & everything my hands could hold in that split moment. I couldn't shout for help cos no one would hear me, my friends didn't even know exactly where I had gone to.In that moment,my life flashed before me.I shuddered at the thought that they'll find my corpse in the morning & the girl would probably,in fear, not admit knowing me & they'll think I was a thief.I just shuddered at what everyone who knew me would say,my family, girlfriend, colleagues & all.That realisation helped me struggle the more & I held on to the soak away brick edges & climbed out.I didn't mind the light & snakes anymore as I ran to my car totally soaked & stinking! God knows how many sanitary pads were in that hole.When I got to my car,I removed EVERYTHING I was wearing except for my boxer shorts & drove shivering, shuddering & laughing & thankful at how I just escaped death. I Drove in that state for 20 minutes to my apartment. It was a few minutes to 1 am.I got to my gate,quietly came down,opened the gates. Thankful it was raining, so no one would see 'doc' & wonder why I was near naked at that time of the night.Straight to the shower.The clothes I wore,everything dumped inside the waste dump outside.I never looked at them again.It's been my most guarded secret.Hahahaha! I never even told the girl about it. There it is.The story of my life.

  25. Surprised that no one advised the lady to seek medical help. She has a cut and has been exposed to danerous bacteria that could still kill her within a few weeks. Madam, please, go see a doctor if you have not already done so without delay. You need preventive prescription especially anti-tetanus. Recently a teenage slipped into a gutter in Lagos. She had minor cuts but died barely one week later. God is good but be good to yourself. Elsewhere the owner of that soakaway would have paid heavy compensation including your medical expenses
