An evangelist in Uganda was reportedly slaughtered with swords this month after leading Muslims to Jesus.
Yowabu Sebakaki, 52, was allegedly killed by Muslim extremists while returning home on a bike to a village in Nyanza. A man named David Nkomba was with him at the time and recounted what unfolded.

Sebakaki was reportedly leading a discipleship class for new believers before the tragic incident, Morning Star News reported.
“Just when we were five kilometers from reaching the homestead, at around 6:20 p.m. a motorcycle came up just behind us, and in no given time Sebakaki was struck with an object, which happened to be a ‘panga’ [long Somali sword] on the back near the neck,” Nkomba told the outlet. “He fell down and … then was cut by another panga at the head. Sebakaki became unconscious due to too much bleeding.”
He continued, “Other attackers were shouting, ‘Your time … has come, and pray hard if your God will save you – you have been deceiving people about life after death given by Issa [Jesus].’”
Nkomba escaped but claims to have recognized one of the assailants as a young radical Muslim.
