Tuesday, June 4, 2024 - A newlywed woman, Habiba Ibrahim, has reportedly cut the manhood of her 40-year-old husband, Salisu Idris, while he was asleep.
Idris, a commercial motorcycle rider and
resident of Kudan in Kaduna State, said the incident happened on May 26 after
he returned from the early morning prayers.
The victim said he was lying on his bed to
have some rest when his wife suddenly jumped on him with a sharp knife and cut
off his manhood. Idris said his neighbours quickly came in to his rescue him
when they heard him shout.
`Idris said they got married about four
months ago, adding that he could not fathom the reason for her action because
they loved each other and there was no prior misunderstanding before the
attack.
Idris was rushed to a hospital in Kudan from
where he was referred to the General Hospital Makarfi. He was later taken to
the Ahmadu Bello University teaching Hospital, Zaria where doctors battled to
save his life.
“At the
moment, I am more concerned about my condition. I am afraid of remarrying
because of this incident,” he said.
Idris’ mother, Rabi Salisu, who looks after
him on the hospital bed, said though they were not staying in the same
compound, he had never complained to her about his wife.
“Her parents
are worried and are willing to settle his medical bills'' she said
The suspect has been arrested. The state
police command is yet to comment on this development.
