A quiet day on a farm turned into a scene of terror for a family living near the boundary of Ikwuano Local Government Area in Abia State. In a shocking incident on X (formerly Twitter), reports emerged that a devoted farmer was shot multiple times while working in his fields, leaving his family devastated and desperate for help. His daughter, now the family’s primary caretaker, is pleading for urgent financial assistance to cover mounting medical expenses as they fight to save her father’s life.
“My father went to the farm, like he does every day, and he didn’t come back the way he left,” she recounted, tears streaming down her face. “He was shot multiple times, and we are terrified of losing him.” Having spent over ₦70,000 on immediate medical care, the family finds themselves in a dire situation, with escalating costs threatening their ability to continue his treatment.
This family, reliant on farming for survival, is facing the unthinkable: the potential loss of their patriarch and provider. “My father is not just a farmer; he is our everything. He has worked tirelessly to support us,” she said, her voice trembling with emotion. “Watching him suffer and not being able to do anything to help is unbearable.”
In their community, the victim is known for his kindness and generosity, always willing to assist neighbors and friends in need. “He has always been there for us,” a close family friend shared. “Now, we must stand with him and his family in this time of crisis.”
The daughter, filled with heartache and desperation, is reaching out to the public for support. “I am asking for help, no matter how small. Every contribution can make a difference and give my father a fighting chance,” she urged. “We have no other options left. Please help us save him.”
As the family grapples with this tragedy, they are determined to do everything possible to ensure that the loving husband and father makes it through this harrowing ordeal.
