Residents of Assakio Development Area in Lafia, Nasarawa State were thrown into confusion on Saturday following the sudden appearance of a strange cross five feet away from a central mosque in the community.

The mysterious sighting attracted a mammoth crowd from Assakio and its environs with many praying for forgiveness and blessings.Our correspondent observed that the illuminated cross was projected on to the ground.

A 15 year-old-girl, Hajara Hussaini, in aninterview with SUNDAY PUNCH, said she first sighted the sign of a cross at about 8pm on Wednesday. Hussaini, who said she had been sent onan errand by her parents, explained that when she saw a strange light, she as gripped by fear and rushed back home to alert her mother, Matan Liman.

Confirming the incident to journalists, Matan said she had sent her daughter tovisit her grandmother. The middle-aged woman added that her daughter saw the crucifix while returning from the errand.The Chief Imam of Assakio Central Mosque, Muhammed Iliyasu, who confirmed the incident, told our correspondent that the appearance of the cross within the premises of the mosque was a revelation from God, affirming that “Jesus is also a prophet ofGod.”

Micheal Dogo of the Evangelical Reform Church of Christ, Assakio, described the appearance of the cross as a sign of reconciliation in the community. Other eyewitnesses, who spoke to SUNDAY PUNCH at the scene of the sighting, expressed fear and bewilderment.

But after praying before the cross, I got healed.” A resident, Jonathan Amegwa, said he was overwhelmed by the appearance of the cross in the mosque.
