A 25 year old man, Aliyu Mohammadu, who was arrested by men of the Niger state police command for cutting off his cousin’s manhood says he does not regret it. Mohammadu who resides in Babana Borgu in New Bussa local government area of Niger state, attacked his cousin, Ibrahim, for allegedly stealing his N3, 500.

While being paraded at the state police command, Mohammadu said he caught Ibrahim taking the money from his room and ran away. A visibly angry Mohammadu, said he does not regret his action and will do more harm to the victim if he does not get his money back.

” What I need is my N3,500, otherwise I am going to do more harm in the family. I have two wives and two children to cater for, I need my money to look after them.

When I confronted him on his way to farm, he told me to go and look for where I kept my money, insisting that I should not disturb him again about the money.

I got annoyed and attacked him with my cutlass which resulted cutting off his manhood. My cousin was rude to me after he made away with my N3,500, he fought me, that was why I cut off genital organ leaving him in a pool of blood,” he said

While speaking to newsmen, the Niger state Police Public Relations Officer, Peter Sunday said the victim was rushed to a specialist hospital in Ilorin, Kwara State for treatment and he is currently undergoing treatment. Mohammadu is currently in police custody.
