A boda-boda man sustained serious injuries after being hit in the head by a cripple in a wheel chair, Abu Ssalongo, near Nabulagala trading centre in Kasubi Parish.The boda-boda man suspected Abu of having stolen an old poster of Ssebaana Kizito. He immediately started a quarrel with him saying: “That is why God made you a cripple, because he knew that you would have been a terrible thief if you were normal.â€â€œYes, God is great to have given you these thin legs because you would have been so swift with people’s property if you were normal,†he added.Abu grimaced and said: “Who do you abuse like that?â€There was practically no distance between the two men.Abu seemed restless in his wheel-chair. In truth, he was searching for one of the metallic crutches he kept smartly hidden in his wheel-chair.When the boda-boda man started to react, he was cut short by a sharp crack on his skull with the sturdy crutch, backed by all the strength Abu could muster with his well-developed upper body.The boda-boda man lay still, bleeding through his nose. Thinking the man dead, the cripple fled. The biker was carried away by his friends.ends
