It was reported on December 30, 2014 that the Imesi Ile, Osun State indigene, was rusticated from a university in Ondo State, a few years back, for engaging in cult-related activities.

He was alleged to have sneaked into his father’s bedroom and stabbed him with a pair of scissors in the neck.

Neighbours, who first discovered the deceased in a pool of blood, were said to have alerted the police at the FESTAC division.

The whole family was said to have been rounded up for questioning and after some preliminary investigations, Oluwaropo was detained while the others were released.

It was reported that his mother, 65-year-old Funmilayo, told the police that the suspect once manhandled her during an argument.

It was said that he was the last child and only son of the five children of the victim. He was said to have used the tiles of the cell to remove his two testicules.

The police at the SCID were said to have rushed him to the Lagos Island General Hospital on Tuesday when the incident happened.

When punch correspondent visited him in the ward where he was receiving treatment, it was observed that he walked with his legs apart.

It was learnt that the doctors at the hospital “stitched” the affected area.

After exchanging pleasantries, Oluwaropo said he could not explain the reason for his action.

He said, “I got frustrated with my life while in the cell because I was alone and was abandoned there. I didn’t see outside of the cell for a long time.

“A spirit entered into me and said I should do it. So I castrated myself. I removed the two testicles myself.”

Asked if he didn’t feel pains while removing the testicles, he replied, “I did.”

The Police Public Relations Officer, Kenneth Nwosu, confirmed the incident.
