Same Catholic priests were recently attacked by Fulani Herdsmen in Enugu
State. According to reports, the priests, Rev Fr Chetanna Jude
Chukwuneke, Fr Emmanuel Dim and Fr Prof Ezeokana were in a car when the
incident occurred. Chukwuenke was driving his car along Obimo in
Uzo-Uwani when the suspected herdsmen emerged from a bush in a bad spot
of the road and shot him in the head but thankfully he didn't die. They
also injured the passengers, kidnapping one in the process.
In a post shared on his Facebook Page, Chukwuneke confirmed the incident. He said:
"Dear friends, thank you so much for your solidarity, goodwill messages,
calls and most importantly your prayers. I am very much stable, hale
and hearty. Our Lord did the greatest miracle for me: I was shot in the
head through the side window of the drivers side by Fulani hoodlums
along Obimo in Uzo-Uwani, near Nimbo both in Enugu state. The pellets
stopped few inches to my brain/skull, and left orbit and ear. It could
have been the end but GOD SAID IT'S NOT YET TIME. However, I still have
some pellets in my face.Finally continue to pray for Fr Emmanuel Dim who
was abducted. Also Fr Prof Ezeokana is recovering from burns."
