According to her, one of her entourage told her a gun was shot few minutes after she was advised to sit in her car. She however denied hearing any gun shot as reported.

“I didn’t hear the gunshot because I was close to the music being played. So my police and security helped me to get to my car and left the campaign grounds”. She revealed.
