Popular Nigerian dancer and social media personality Jane Mena has recounted a frightening incident involving her toddler, describing it as a moment of divine protection.
The dancer revealed that on December 24, 2025, her one-year-and-ten-month-old son narrowly escaped a potentially serious fall inside their home. According to her account, the child unexpectedly opened a room door and made his way toward a staircase while she briefly stepped away.
Mena explained that she was in the bathroom preparing her son’s bath when the incident occurred. Despite nursing a broken leg at the time, she rushed out immediately after realizing her child was no longer in the room.
Fortunately, the toddler was intercepted before he could slip or fall down the stairs.
Sharing her experience on social media, Mena expressed deep gratitude to God for her son’s safety. She noted that her child had never climbed the staircase before, making the situation both shocking and alarming.
The dancer also emphasized that she rarely leaves her children unattended unless a trusted person is present, describing the incident as a sobering reminder of how quickly things can change.
In a reflective message, Mena said she is thankful the situation did not end in tragedy and that she can now look back on the moment with relief. She added that the footage of the incident, retrieved with her husband’s help, has become a personal testimony of gratitude.
The post has since drawn reactions from fans and fellow celebrities, many praising her honesty and echoing her message about vigilance and gratitude.
