Woman cuts off husband’s manhood over infidelity in Benue state

Otukpo, one of the busiest
towns in Benue state, and the
home town of the Senate
President, David Mark was the
centre of attention yesterday
when a woman allegedly
chopped off her husband’s
manhood, while protesting
against his (the man’s)
infidelity.
Mr. Ajene, who resides at Ojira in
the ancient town of Idoma land,
was on Monday morning
accused by his wife, Rosaline for
not keeping to their marital vows
which they took two months
ago.
According to eyewitness account,
trouble started when the 24 year
old wife confronted her husband
for having an affair with a young
lady (name withheld) somewhere
in Sabon Geri of the same town.
The husband who was enraged
at the manner with which he
was confronted gave the wife
the most horrible beating of her
life as the entire residents of the
area came out to separate the
fight.
“After the fight had ended, we all
thought trouble was over and
that the couple would settle at
last, only for us to wake up this
morning to have discovered that
Mr. Ajene was rushed to the
hospital first thing this morning
with a deep cut on his manhood.
We were told by the nanny that
the wife who went to bed with
the husband last night after the
fight had bitten off the
husband’s manhood in the night
and had since escaped to an
unknown location” the witness
said.
Speaking to our correspondent
in Otukpo; the 10 year old nanny,
Josephine had described the cut
as unimaginable. According to
her, “When I heard the shout, I
ran out to the sitting-room, and I
saw my aunty with a big bag
running out, while uncle was
shouting in the room. It was
around 1 am, and I couldn’t do
anything to help the matter. I
swear, the thing was almost
falling off. ” she said.
