Another man held a car's bonnet
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that another man showcased that perhaps, money has more value than his life following his reaction to a face-off he had with a lady.
In a viral video shared on Instagram, the man held on to the bonnet of a moving car.
It was said that the lady had declined to tip him for parking her car in his ''territory.'' Perhaps to forcefully get the money, the unidentified man hung on to the car's bonnet.
The situation lasted while the lady drove from Ikoyi to Victoria Island in Lagos. While the scary trip lasted, the man would steal glances behind him as if trying to watch for on-coming vehicles.
