It's been a nightmare for the little boy who had his eyes plucked out by ritualists in Zaria. Nasseerdeen, 4, was kidnapped alongside his sister on their way to a mosque near their home in in Marafa, Police college, Kaduna State. According to the report, the kidnappers dropped off his sister but took him to an unknown location, where his eyes were plucked out.
His heartbroken father, Usman Isa told Daily Trust after doctors at the Ahmadu Bello University performed an operation on the little boy, they revealed he will not see again, except a miracle happens....
“The Kaduna hospital has referred us back to ABUTH. Doctors have conducted surgery yesterday. From what they told us, the perpetrators have removed everything that has to do with the eyes, which would make fixing them difficult. However, doctors said that they would review the operation to see the outcome, hoping they can fix artificial ones,” he said amidst tears.He said the doctors said the artificial eyes would be fixed just to fill the holes, but not for the young boy to see. “Except if Allah performs a miracle,”
Meanwhile the grandmother of little Usman, Malama Hadiza Usman, narrated how she got to know that her grandson's eyes had been removed by ritualists while he was on his way to an evening Islamiyya class.
In tears, Malama Hadiza told Daily Trust that she would never forget the incident for the rest of her life.
“I’d given him N5 to buy sweets on his way, on Sunday, January 24. He left the house with his brother Umar, but on their way they were intercepted by yet-to-be identified men who took him to an uncompleted building and gouged his eyes out.”At the hospital, little Abubakar was telling those around him to open his eyes to enable him see his mother and grandmother. “Open my eyes, I want to see Mama. Mama, where are you? Where’s Grandma?” he kept wailing.
**How wicked and heartless can people be? I am so sad and heartbroken
right now! I feel for this little boy and his family. How cruel can life
be? I pray God be with him and his loved ones. May God console them and
give them reasons to smile again. As for those behind this wicked act,
God will surely visit them... at the right time, they will meet their
waterloo.
