According to him, ” They stabbed me with a knife, took away my phone and other valuables. They were armed with knives, cutlasses, daggers and sticks. However, during their search, one of the hoodlums noticed my uniform trousers and quickly told his colleagues that I was a soldier and they abandoned me with injuries.
” In fact, it was my uniform trousers that saved me. Other passengers had already alighted from the tricycle, I was the only one remaining with the motorcycle rider when the incident occurred.
