“We were at the motorbike station when we heard someone had been attacked on the Bontrase road so we rushed there and saw our Okada partner in a pool of blood with several cutlass wounds inflicted on his body.”
“We would have lynched them but for the timely intervention of the police,” an Okada colleague of the victim narrated.
