the Old Garage, Akure when a middle-aged
woman was alleged to have used charm to
take a man's man-hood.
It was gathered that the victim, Adewale
Akande, a graduate of College of Education,
Oro, Kwara State gave the woman who
begged him for alms, N50 but five minutes
later, he discovered that he was having a
feeling that his manhood had disappeared.
Apparently uncomfortable with the situation,
the victim, in his mid-twenties, called a traffic
officer around to help him arrest the woman
whom he said begged him for alms.
When brought to the Police Area Command
Station at Oyemekun Road, Akure, it was learnt
that the suspect first denied having collected
money from the victim. But after a thorough
interrogation by the Police, she confessed that
she received the money from Adewale.
Meanwhile, there was tension around the police
station as Wale's family members insisted that
the case be transferred to the Deji's Palace for
traditional solution.
After six hours of apprehension, the victim was
taken to an undisclosed hospital where he
regained his manhood.
Narrating his ordeal to us, Akande said he came
to Akure on Tuesday with his brother, Ademola,
to inform their relatives about Ademola's
marriage.
The incident, he said, happened when he was
about boarding a commercial vehicle to Ilorin
from Old Garage; leaving his brother, behind as
he promised to leave Akure the following day,
Friday.
Akande said the beggar had begged him for alms,
after which he gave her N50 only to notice after
five minutes that his manhood was 'shrinking'.
He said all efforts to get help from passengers in
the car proved abortive, as they mistook him for
'419′ (fraudster). The graduate said he
immediately called his brother on phone before
approaching traffic wardens for help.
He said, "I just saw the woman on the road. She
was begging me that I should give her N50. I
gave her and in the next five minutes, I saw that
my body was weak and my man-hood became
very tiny like broom".
Ademola, his brother, confirmed the incident,
saying Wale called him immediately after the
incident occurred. He expressed surprise at the
mysterious disappearance of his brother's
manhood, adding that but for God's
intervention, it would have been a different
story.
On her part, an aunty to the victim whom the
brothers had visited, Prophetess Florence
Adeojo of C&S, Imole-Ayo Parish, Oke-Ijebu,
Akure advised members of the public who want
to give alms to give them directly to churches
and not to every beggar they see on their way.
When we visited the Area Commander's office
yesterday, it was discovered that the woman was
still under detention, just as none of the officers
were willing to speak to press on the matter.
The Police Public Relations Officer [PPRO], Mr.
Wole Ogodo who confirmed that the case was
taken to the Police Area Command, said the
police was not really sure if the victim truly lost
his manhood.
According to him, "the boy and the beggar who is
an able body woman were taken to the Station
and during the interrogation, the Area
Commander asked if the boy has a girlfriend or
someone who could help him test if he had
really lost his manhood, but Adewale claimed
that his girlfriend was very far from Akure and
no one around could help him make the test if
his manhood was still functioning.
"The Area Commander also asked from the
victim the last time he had eaten, but Adewale
said for the past seven days he had been fasting.
The Police boss immediately directed the boy to
go to the hospital for proper medical attention,
believing that the victim might be suffering from
psychological problem since he had not eaten for
the past seven days.
"Later on, the man returned from the hospital
and confirmed that his manhood was now
functioning properly.
However, the woman has been warned by Police
not to stay around that area again or any place to
solicit for money, rather, she should look for
better things to do in order to keep her soul and
body together" the PPRO had confirmed.
