The children of a landlord were said to have attacked the victim and injured him after a disagreement

A man in Lagos has had part of his scrotum cut off after he was attacked by his landlady's children.

Yinka Offehin

They allegedly cut off part of the victim's scrotum leaving him in critical condition and with mounting medical bills. Offehin's wife said:

“On Thursday morning, around 3am, while we were sleeping, we heard loud bangs on our door. We initially thought they were armed robbers because the house beside ours had recently been robbed.

When they entered, we saw they were children of our landlady. They began destroying our electronics and other property.

There were two of them. One held a knife in his hand. They took N800, 000. They descended on my husband and he also fought back. In that confusion, my husband shouted and we saw that one of the attackers had cut Yinka’s scrotum. I can’t say what they used to cut off my husband’s scrotum.”

The father of the suspects, who is a pastor, said:

"...I was told they are taking the matter to court. Let’s leave everything to God.”

The alleged attackers have been arrested and the incident has been confirmed by the police spokesperson in Lagos.
