Boy whose genital was cut off by his stepmother reportedly undergoes a surgery (photo)

We reported about this gruesome incident that happened a month ago in Minna, Niger State. Read 

here. A woman named Bara'atu cut off the genital of her step son - named Buhari out of 'jealousy'.
She had been married to her husband for seven years without any child and out of pressure, the man decided to marry a second wife. When the new wife had a baby, she became frustrated and planned to kill him out of anger.

She used a sharp knife to cut off his penis and the cry of the baby attracted neighbours, who rushed to the place and found him in a pool of blood. She made an attempt to abscond but was overpowered by people around and handed over to the police, while the baby was taken to the IBB Specialist Hospital in Minna. She was arraigned  on a one count of attempted homicide before a Chief Magistrate’s Court in Minna and remanded in prison.

Now weeks after, the boy reportedly had a successful surgery a day ago. ads
