According to him, the man called for help with screams which made neighbors rush into his apartment and discover what had happened.
“When we heard him scream, we thought hoodlums had attacked him. But when we got there, we saw that his private part was gone and his dog had blood on its mouth” the neighbor said.
Itoro explained that due to his messed-up body, he was not rushed to the hospital immediately as it needed to be cleaned up.
She said; “By the time we finished cleaning him of the shit, he was bleeding so much, and on the way to the hospital he died.”
The man lived alone ever since his daughters got married and are away from him.
