A 44-year-old man, Terhemen Anongo, who resides in Gboko in Benue State, has cut out his testicles “to avert sexual desire”.
Anongo, who is a medical school drop-out, explained that the decision was to enable him serve God properly.
Last year, he had cut one of the testicles by himself, leading to him almost losing his life in the process.
He came into limelight in March after he personally undertook the surgery, which resulted in profuse bleeding.
However, help came on time as he was saved and attended to by medical practioners.
Anongo had dropped out from the University of Ibadan medical school due to alleged ill health.
About the castration, he said he did it because of his religious belief and that since he was not married, he needed to serve God faithfully.
Speaking on telephone with newsmen in Makurdi on Sunday, the medical student now turned a wheel barrow pusher, said, “I went to remove the second testicle based on religious belief. I removed it on Monday. The first one had little hitches but this one having learnt from that experience, I did (remove) it very well. Somebody is always coming to dress it for me.
“I’m fine. There is no problem, I’m only waiting for when the wound will heal so I can remove the stitches.”
