The 32- year-old woman who is crying for help as she said her husband is not capable of footing her medical expenses not while narrated her terrible ordeal. “After attending a turbaning ceremony in Lukshi, a village in Dass Local Government, I started to head home to meet my family as there was nobody to cook for them. When I reached a particular area close to a bush, I saw three men looking at me as I approached them.
“One of them approached me and said that he wanted to made loveual intercourse with me and that he was willing to pay for it, but I objected because I am a married woman. When they saw that I was not willing to cooperate with them, they pushed me to the ground and dragged me inside the bush and molested me, one after the other.
“After molesting me, one of them brought out a knife, stabbed and plucked out my right eye with it, while the other two held me tightly to the ground. He also tried to removed the left eye,but he could not. But the eye ended up being damaged. After doing this, they left me in my pool of blood and fled”.
Meanwhile the victim’s husband, Mohammed Usman who is shocked over what happened and also heartbroken said: “I waited for my wife to return from the ceremony she attended in a nearby village,but she did not show up . When it was getting dark, I began to get worried and wanted to go and look for her.
Suddenly, some of my neighbours ran to my house to inform me that my wife was attacked while returning from the ceremony. What broke my heart was that the attackers did not only rape her, but also blinded her”.
He's also calling on the state government to come to his wife's aid as he's a poor man and cannot shoulder the financial responsibilities of his wife’s medical treatment.
However one of the suspects, 45- year-old man Bitrus Yakubu who said it was the other two men that molested her in his own confession said: “One native doctor, Galambi, told me and my colleagues to get him the eyes of a woman. I don’t know what he intends to do with the eyes, but he promised to give us N1 million after the operation. We could not resist the offer because of poverty and the desire to become rich people like our friends”.
The native doctor, Galambi however denied sending the suspects to remove the eyes of the woman,but admitted receiving the eyes from them. “The men approached me to prepare some charms for them because they wanted protection; so I told them to get the eyes of a woman, which they agreed to bring.
Another purpose of the charm is to help them to disappear whenever they want to. I don’t know whose eyes they removed or how they got it,my own work is to prepare the charms for them,” he said.
The woman, Zainab Mohammed who is currently in pain in the female surgical ward of the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa Teaching Hospital with her left eye completely damaged may be able to see with her right eye after operating and repairing the globe, this is according to the Head of Ophthalmology Department of ATBU, Dr Mohammed Mahdi Abdull who operated on her.
