A Christian man, Francis
Emmanuel, on Wednesday narrowly escaped death as a gang of six youths, believed
to be Muslims, armed with daggers stabbed him severally at a restaurant in
Kakuri, Kaduna.
They accused him for not fasting.
Tension flared after the
incident as the man was rushed to St. Gerald Catholic Hospital about a
kilometre from Sokoto Street, Kakuri, where the incident happened. Kaduna State
Governor Nasir El-Rufai, on learning about the development rushed to the
hospital and greeted the victim and promised he would get the culprits to face
justice.
Emmanuel who almost lost his right armed from wedging off cuts, also
sustained deep machete cuts on various parts of his body, especially around his
left chin and back. The 41 year old man who spoke with journalists on his sick
bed under severe pains from the attack, said he was taking his launch when the
boys numbering about six descended on him on because he was not fasting.
