There is palpable fear amongst the residents of Abuja and other states in the country following speculations that some elements go about stealing male genitals.
Many cases of genital theft have been reported in some states in the North Central, particularly in Kogi, Nasarawa, Kaduna and the nation’s capital.
It is yet unclear how the miscreants carry out such acts, residents of the FCT have, for over a month now, been living in fear following reported cases of ‘stealing’ of manhoods.
On August 23, the Nasarawa State Police Command, while cautioning residents against jungle justice being meted out to the alleged organ thieves in the state, revealed that some persons were attacked over same allegations in Nasarawa Eggon, Obi, Lafia and Keffi Local Government Areas of the state.
The State’s Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Ramhan Nansel, however, said a medical examination conducted on the alleged victims, “gave all of them a clean bill of health”, saying there was no basis for the allegations.
Three days after the incident, another resident, Lucky Josiah was accused of causing the disappearance of one Rokeeb Saheed’s manhood.
The Police Public Relations Officer, SP Josephine Adeh, while confirming the ugly development, told Newsmen that officers of the command quickly responded to a distress call that a victim was being lynched.
Unlike the Gwagwalada incident, Lucky was saved by the police operatives from being killed by the angry mob.
The PPRO revealed that after medical examinations were conducted on Saheed, his male organ was “confirmed to be fine, and Lucky’s injuries were treated”.
Residents of the city have continued to record similar incidents almost on a daily basis in both the city centre and satellite towns.
On Friday, a disturbing motion picture which captured an alleged manhood thief being subjected to torture and dehumanization by mob, including some security operatives surfaced online.
In the video, the alleged thief who was accused of stealing two manhoods, was heard saying he is innocent of the allegations.
