November 28th, 2015 is a day I will never forget. I was busy going on with my studio work when at about 2:30pm two men got in the studio and pretended to be clients. In less than a minute one of them pulled out a gun from a student folder and they told me to comply with their orders. All of a sudden three more walked in as one of them started punching me and telling me not to look at them. The next thing is I found myself lying on the floor and they started tying me up and taping me on my head. I had just sent my assistant for a quick bite as we had a few more shoots before we closed.

"They then took my keys and locked me up in our changing room. I managed to remove the tape from my mouth and shouted for help. Lucky enough one of the guards heard me and had to use a ladder to get in and rescue me. By then they had already left with my phone, camera with all my lenses and my laptop. Thank God I always back up my clients work in different places, all my work is intact. As you go to church please pray for our nation, these guys are doing this just because there are no jobs or anything to keep them busy. I really thank God for my life and having the chance to see one more day. I also want to thank my family and friends for the quick response and the encouragement you've given me. Just like the scriptures say I believe that the darkest hour is just before dawn. I believe that good things are lined up for me. GOD BLESS."
