But as Mr Ndiwane sprinted towards them, the lions immediately viewed him as prey and zeroed in.
Realising the Lord wasn’t about to help, Mr Ndiwane fled back to the car, but not before one of the lions clamped down on his buttocks.
He was only saved from further injury or possible death when the game ranger fired shots to scare the lions off, it was reported by GhanaWeb.
He said: ‘I do not know what came over me. I thought the Lord wanted to use me to show his power over animals.
‘Is it not we were given dominion over all creatures of the earth.’
Mr Ndiwane was rushed to hospital for emergency surgery to stitch up his wounds and was later discharged.
