A Chinese worker at the Xin Xin Quarry in Akamkpa Local Government Area of Cross River State. Identified as Njaga Chang, has ripped off one of the right fingers of his Nigerian colleague.
“The incident happened at about 4.30 pm on Saturday. The Chinese man was angered by the Nigerian’s slow response when he was told to turn on a generator at the quarry. Chang had initially started with insults on the Nigerian, but later attacked Nsikak Tommy with a water hose.
Chang was said to have initially attacked Tommy with a water hose but later resorted to the use of machete when the victim took to his heels.
The 23-year-old Nigerian victim, Nsikak Tommy, was said to have incurred the wrath of the Chinese for failing to quickly turn on the generator at the quarry site.
Narrating the incident to Southern City News on Sunday, an eyewitness, Ene Bassey, said the Chinese was quickly taken away to an unknown destination in Calabar after the incident happened.

In the process, the machete cut off one of his fingers. He was left in a pool of blood as he cried for help. [/vc_column][/vc_row]
After the incident, owners of the Xin Xin Quarry, who also own two other quarries in Akamkpa known as Expanded and Fughou Quarries, rather than attend to the injured man, ferried the Chinese man to Calabar and had him hidden.
