“After the donation, I was returning from Rukubi town to Doma at about 5:30 p.m., around Igbabo village when about nine gunmen opened fire on me from different directions.
“One of the bullets hit the mobile phone in my breast pocket with another hitting my elbow and my back.
“I was able to escape by the whiskers to Igbabo village where the villagers tend to me and took me to the hospital for proper treatment,” he said.
Ibrahim-Abubakar said that several bullets have already been removed from his body with doctor working to remove one more lodged under his ribs.
