A grandmother in Kaduna Sate has told how she lost a hand after she was raped by a beast that ambushed her, as she was returning from the farm.
Mrs. Adasa Yarowani had gone to the farm early in the morning to fetch firewood and she was going back home at about 7.20 a.m, when she ran into a young Fulani man, identified as Shagari Ori, from Kwashere village, near Jere, in Kagarko Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
The 30-year-old man had offered to help the woman get more firewood and she had rejected the offer. Then Shagari, who told Daily Sun that he was drunk, knocked the firewood off Adasa's head, brought her down and pinned her to the ground.
Shagari said he couldn't have his way because he had premature ejaculation, but Adasa said the rapist actually satisfied himself.
She said: "He pushed me down and climbed on top of me. We began to struggle. In the process, he penetrated and had sex with me.
"When he finished, he asked me, if I knew him. I answered, Yes. I asked him if he was not Shagari, the son of Anshi? Then he brought out his cutlass. I jumped up and began to run but he struck and cut my hand off."
Shagari could only confirm that he knocked the firewood off, pushed the woman down and removed her wrapper but could not penetrate.
"I ejaculated before I could enter her," he said. "There was no way I could do it again with a weak penis. I, then, looked into her eyes and asked her whether she could recognize me. She said yes, so I drew my cutlass and cut off her hand."
Shagari, who claimed to be a divorcee, said he was coming back from Idah village, when he saw Adasa and felt like having sex with her.
