This is disheartening. A man identified as Mr. Ekanem Ukeme is lucky to be alive after he survived a gruesome attack which saw him stabbed multiple times.

It was gathered that Mr. Ukeme ran into two young men in his neighbourhood as they were physically abusing a lady, he then stepped in to stop the abuse and protect her. In the process of trying to rescue the woman, the deadly duo vented all their anger on him.

They further involved all their cult members who stabbed him all over his body with knives and bottles.

According to reports, the cultist chased him till he ran into a church where he was rescued.

He was later taken to the hospital where he was treated.
