According to human rights activist Harrison Gwamnishu, Ability's gateman thwarted the kidnap attempt by armed men, saving his life.
However, in a shocking turn of events, Ability was involved in a fatal motorcycle crash while visiting his wife, less than 24 hours after the kidnap attempt.
A video shared by Gwamnishu shows Ability lying lifeless in a casket, sparking an outpouring of grief and shock.
Gwamnishu expressed his devastation, saying, "A man who survived over 17 bullets from armed kidnappers yesterday, slept, woke up, and this evening he's been lowered."
