The celebrity car customiser said Hudson was wise in choosing to hit the ditch than a lamp post.

"He wasn't hurt and no other cars were involved. He was the only one in the car and had to climb across the seats to get out. He lives nearby so he just walked home."

Charalambous noted he called his recovery team, shut a section of the road and pulled the supercar out.

Charalambous noted he called his recovery team, shut a section of the road and pulled the supercar out.

"There is not that much damage but it's a Lamborghini Performante and it is the only one with that colour. He had it specifically painted with the colour SE30 viola," he said.

The car was facing the wrong way and was on the wrong side of the road in the ditch indicating it must have spun off the road during the night.

Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari.
