He claimed that the herbalist screamed after the dog bit off his manhood, and that his neighbors mistook him for a hoodlum before rushing to his home.

“When he came back, we had gone to bed, but some people were still outside,” the neighbor, who identified himself as Itoro, continued. He went into his room and fell asleep without closing the door, and he puked on himself due to too much alcohol.

“His outside dog smelled the poo and went inside to eat it.” During the process, the dog ate a piece of his privates, mistaking it for meat or excreta.”
