According to Apraise, on Monday, May 9, 2016, Ronke's vehicle was hit by a truck due to the reckless driving of a road user.
She explained that it took a miracle for her to be alive, as she was unconscious for a while due to the impact of the accident.
The actress said, "It’s true I was involved in an accident along Agege/Oshodi express road on Monday, May 9, 2016, and it’s an unforgettable experience."

"But I just have to give glory to God for keeping me alive. It’s even a miracle that I came out unhurt. I was coming from Computer Village, Ikeja, facing Oshodi. As I got to PWD bus stop, a naval officer was coming out of the Air Force Base in Ikeja, Lagos with a pilot in his front."
"The way the pilot came out was wrong, the driver was on high speed. I believe a responsible driver or motorist should understand that the road is narrow and very busy."
"So, he needed to have applied brake or drive slowly before coming out to the express road.”
Giving more account of the accident, Ronke said more cars were affected after the truck hit her vehicle.

This led to multiple damages, though her own vehicle had more serious damages, according to the actress.
“The man just pulled into the road, and coincidentally, two trucks carrying 40 feet containers were coming at my back."
"So, I had to park because the pilot had come out already, and the lane was narrow. As I was parking, one of the trucks just hit my jeep from the back."
"The thing became a kind of multiple accidents as two other vehicles were also affected, but it’s only my car that was badly damaged."
"But the most important thing was that I was not injured. Although, I was a little unconscious, I later regained consciousness.”
