Newspot gathered that the victim, Najib Hussaini, an indigene of Kano State who was attending quranic education (Almajiranci) in Kafin-Madaki was barely a year in the state when the incident occurred on the 9th of December 2022, about 2 pm within the vicinity of Unguwar Yamma which is not far from the victim’s school in Tsangaya.

Police Public Relations Officer, SP Ahmed Mohammed Wakil, revealed that two unknown people who came on a motorcycle (Bajaj) lured the victim to a nearby house to assist them to call a lady. They took the victim on their bike straight to an isolated area near Hanyar Gonar Wakili of the same village, stopped the motorcycle near a bushy area and forcefully plucked the right eye of the victim and abandoned him with his body drenched in blood.

The victim was subsequently taken to Abubakar Tafawa Balewa Teaching Hospital Bauchi (ATBUTH) for medical attention.
