Niger State police command has arrested one Aliyu Mohammed, for allegedly cutting off his 12-year-old cousin’s manhood at Borgu Local Government Area.
It was gathered that the suspect accosted his victim, Ibrahim Farouk, on his way to the farm.
According to Punch, Mohammed squeezed Ibrahim’s throat until he passed out, cut off his manhood and left him in his pool of blood.
But the Farouk regained consciousness after nine hours and managed to get home, where he narrated his ordeal to his parents, after which he fainted.
He told Punch: “I did not know what was happening; I woke up in the afternoon and was feeling pains in my manhood. When I looked down, I saw I was bleeding and my manhood had been cut off.
“I had to gather some strength and struggled to get home. I walked and in some places, I had to rest because the pain was much. I never knew one could feel such pain and survive, the pain was excruciating.”
According to the victim’s uncle, Usman Aliyu, a catheter was inserted in the victim to enable him to urinate.
He noted that Farouk still needs a comprehensive surgery for his manhood to function.
Niger State Police Public Relations Officer, Muhammad Abubakar, confirmed the incident, saying the matter had been charged to court.
