“I’m still confused about what had happened. Why was I shot because it was not robbery?” Pastor Striker asked.
“They didn’t take anything. I’m still asking myself who wants to kill a man of God. They shot at the driver’s door. It seemed they wanted to kill me. Fortunately, as much I’m wounded, I’m not critical.”Â
