An evangelist who had been preaching at a gospel event was murdered by suspected Islamic extremists in Kampala, Uganda, last month.
Alfred Kitenga was reportedly beaten and stabbed around 9:30 p.m. on April 9 as he and his wife, Anna Grace Nabirye, were returning from a preaching event in the Namungoona area of Kampala, according to areportfrom Morning Star News.
The couple was reportedly approached by four people who claimed to be motorcycle taxi drivers.
Nabirye recounted that they claimed to have been fellow Christians attending the gospel event, and offered the couple a free ride home.
“We believed them because they said they were fellow believers who had listened to the message,” Nabirye described to Morning Star News.
But the four riders claimed that traffic congestion meant an alternate route would be ideal, and the couple agreed.
Nabirye grew uneasy when she overheard one of the drivers speaking on the phone in a language she did not know.
Three more men then showed up, at which point the riders assaulted the couple.
They were beaten severely, and Kitenga was fatally stabbed.
Nabirye was allowed to survive and was left near her home.
