KATSINA (CONVERSEER) – A businessman, Marwan Usman, was brutally attacked and injured by suspected phone snatchers in Katsina State.
The incident occurred at his workplace along IBB Road, near Kaura Gate close to the MTN office on Sunday night, 21st September 2025.
Narrating the ordeal, Marwan said the assailants struck while he was refilling his generator to continue his night business operations.
The hoodlums demanded his mobile phone, but he resisted giving it to them.
In retaliation, the attackers inflicted multiple machete cuts on him before fleeing the scene without successfully taking the phone.
Converseer advises that you report cases like this to the police rather than risking your life.
Cases of phone theft and snatching are on the rise in Nigeria, even with sophisticated phones being produced yearly.
