“Surviving this accident has shown me that I still have a purpose to live and do something in this life,” L’vobo added.

ANOTHER NARROW ESCAPE

The accident allegedly happened on the N2 Highway near Scottburgh, in KwaZulu-Natal.

In 2007 the musician was involved in an accident in Johannesburg that took the lives of two people. SowetanLIVE reported at the time that L’vovo had suffered a broken arm and had several stitches on his nose.
