A quack medical practitioner, Umaru Usman was on Tuesday arrested for licking the semen of patients in Minna, Niger State.
The 50-year-old was apprehended at the Out Patient Department of the Minna General Hospital after parading himself as a medical doctor for over two years without being detected.
The suspect, who was originally a hospital attendant, usually directs male patients away from the doctors into a room where he would massage their private parts until the patient discharges sperm into his palms. He would lick the sperm and allow the victim to go without prescribing any drug for him. Usman had sucked and licked the sperm of 10 victims before he was exposed, New Telegraph reported.
Trouble started for Usman when his last victim, Sani Baitachi, a 40-year-old man, could not discharge semen on time. He got worked up and slapped the quack medical practitioner, eyewitnesses told NewTelegraph.
An argument followed. At this stage the hospital management was brought into the matter. The suspect was handed over to the police.
When contacted, the Deputy Chief Medical Director of the Minna General Hospital, Dr. Hussaini Yabagi, confirmed the story.
“The management will follow the case to its logical conclusion so that it will serve as deterrent to others,” Yabagi said.
It was gathered that police have commenced investigation into the matter.
