South African multi-award winning Hip Hop artist Gigi Lamayne escaped a hijacking unscathed which she credits to a higher power protecting her.
“He wanted to rape me as punishment for throwing my phone into the bush. Take the car broer. Just leave me intact.”
The incident occurred on Wednesday night, close to Mall of Africa in Midrand around 22h00pm with Gigi and her team thankful that they were not hurt.
It could have ended far worse when Gigi decided to make a run for it and threw her phone in a nearby bush and was threatened that they would rape her.
Kaya 959 reached out to Gigi, who was still shaken by the horrific experience and stressed that it could happen to anyone.
My team and I have just been hijacked . H1 JG 75 TF GP Hyundai 2019. Please keep a look out . That’s why I have my phone. I just got out and I ran with my phone. I know it wasn’t the safest thing to do

Her vehicle was recovered shortly after with the help of the tracker. In the video Gigi had shared to her social media it looked like her hijackers had attempted to remove the tracking device but failed.

In South Africa, an average 45 cars are hijacked daily, with an advance and defensive driving expert saying as difficult as it may be, let go of your car.
I ran for my life cause honestly I told him to kill me before trying to violate me. Rather take the car. You won’t take my dignity though. And guess what ? I know for a fact a higher power protected us tonight.
