A 37-year-old man, Uwombornyi Bado, has met his untimely death after he was stabbed with a stick in his stomach by a colleague, Alhassan Merasa.
This happened at Zongo-Machire, a farming community near Chinderi, the District capital of Krachi Nchumuru of the Oti Region.
He was rushed to a clinic at Chinderi and later referred to the Kete-Krachi District Hospital but was pronounced dead on arrival.

Some community members said they were shocked and dismayed at the tragic incident.
The body of the deceased has been deposited at Krachi West District morgue for preservation, while the police pursue further investigations.
