A Nigerian footballer plying his trade in Beirut, the Lebanon city where an explosion killed no fewer than 100 people and left 4,000 injured, has said narrated his experience during the blast.Vincent arrived the Lebanese capital in January for trials, but was yet to get a contract largely due to the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, which halted sporting activities globally.“I can tell you that I’m really close to the spot of the blast. I’m in Dora in Beirut, where the blast happened.
“The first thing that came to my mind was that war had started. I was in a hotel and I was scared that the building was going to sink, and that I was going to die. Everywhere was shaking and the walls and roofs were trembling.“I ran out almost immediately because I thought staying inside was not going to help me. Everyone was outside trying to figure out what had happened.Vincent said everywhere was calm in Lebanon after the blast, but added that the citizens were still scared.
