The Delta State Police Command has arrested Benedict Toju, a local resident, for falsely accusing police officers of stealing his manhood during a routine stop-and-search operation.

“To our greatest surprise, this suspect returned and claimed that, after the police search, his manhood had disappeared,” Edafe said.
“We keep hearing such stories, but we have never encountered one person whose manhood truly disappeared. This is why we continue to set an example in such cases. Let them go to court and explain how their manhood disappears when it is confirmed to be intact.”

Speaking about the ordeal, Toju admitted that his return to the police checkpoint was unnecessary.

“When I left, I was feeling somehow, so I came back to the police checkpoint to explain how I was feeling, which was very wrong,” he said.

Following his claims, officers took Toju to the police station, where the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) arranged for a medical examination. The results confirmed that his manhood was intact.

When questioned further, Toju explained that his initial accusation stemmed from fear and confusion.

“I was scared that my private organ was shrinking and small after the stop-and-search exercise,” he said.
“I later realised that the ‘shrinking’ of my manhood was a result of the panic I experienced during the stop-and-search exercise.”

The Delta police continue to stress the importance of evidence in such cases, dismissing allegations of manhood disappearance as baseless.
