The Bayer Leverkusen star shared a video of the car’s wreckage on Instagram to highlight the severity of the crash, showing one of his hands bleeding from the impact. It was evident that the right side of the black automobile had been severely damaged.

Boniface narrates car crash incident
In an interview with Football Fans Tribe, Boniface described the horrific experience, saying:
“I was having my childhood friend from Nigeria coming to visit. So we were supposed to pick them at the airport.
“I was sleeping and my other friend was driving. When I woke up, we were already spinning three times. But we thank God, just a little scar on my forehead and stitches. The most important thing for me is life.”
Meanwhile, Boniface has been in top form this season, scoring one goal and providing one assist in 15 games for Leverkusen.
He is currently on international duty with the Nigerian national team, coming off the bench to help the Super Eagles rescue a 1-1 draw against Benin Republic on Thursday evening.
He will, however, hope for a chance in the starting lineup as Nigeria faces Rwanda in their final African Cup of Nations qualifier.
