A man has been left hospitalized after accidentally cutting his testicles.
This unfortunate incident witnessed a Ghanaian farmer, Kofi Atta, 47, who, after dozing off in an armchair cut off his genital while sleeping and dreaming about cutting meat.
Still, in a dream-like state, the farmer from Assin Akomfede called for two neighbors who rushed to his house and found him alone, covered in blood, and immediately rushed to St Francis Xavier hospital in Assin Fosu.
Speaking to BBC Pidgin he said:
“I was sitting in my chair when I dozed off. In my sleep, I dreamt that I was cutting some meat in front of me.
“I don’t remember how I picked up the knife, even though I am confused.”
Kofi came out of his dream state when in the hospital, that was when he realized he hadn’t been chopping meat for a family meal, but rather his own testicles.
The victim’s wife, Adwoa Konadu, disclosed that the latest incident is not the first time her husband has carried out such activity while sleeping.
