Weeks after Nigerian international, Victor Boniface, was involved in a car crash in Frankfurt and barely escaped with minor injuries, reports in German newspapers have heavily criticised the Bayer Leverkusen forward for using his mobile phone while driving too fast and recklessly on the highway
Photos of him scrolling his phone while driving his Mercedes Benz while hanging out with Nigerian rapper Zoro Swagbag were posted on his social media.
It showed he was driving at 141 kilometres per hour on a highway that allows only 120 kilometres per hour. The fact that he also liked the post on social media did more damage to his reputation.
Germany’s leading newspaper, Bild, published the flood of criticisms against the Super Eagles striker for going recklessly against the traffic laws.
Although Boniface was left off the hook by his club because it was his off day after a weekend game, authorities are yet to speak on wether charges of traffic rule violations will be instituted against the footballer who was partly responsible for Leverkusen’s Bundesliga Win last season.
The player is currently sidelined by a thigh injury he suffered while on Super Eagles duty against Rwanda recently.
