The Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) has called for the setting up of a special missing genital organs and anti-one chance police squad in Abuja.
The rights group hinged its call following the growing concerns over the activities of some criminal elements who are reportedly on the prowl in Abuja and other states of the federation allegedly stealing male genital organs.
HURIWA, in a statement made available to PlatinumPost by its national coordinator, Emmanuel Onwubiko, on Tuesday, urged the minister of the Federal Capital Territory to liaise with the security agencies especially the Nigeria Police Force to set the squad.
The group also asked insurance companies to introduce policies on MISSING GENITAL ORGANS to help mitigate the consequences of such an outrageous criminality if it is established to be factually and empirically proven.
HURIWA said government should act swiftly to educate the citizens to separate facts from rumours even ad it lamented that in recent times, there has been an increase in reported cases of disappearance of genital organs in some states in the North Central, particularly in Kogi, Nasarawa, Kaduna and the nation’s capital.
“But regrettably, the police authority in FCT are very dismissive of this serious danger to the wellbeing of the citizens of the FCT and often deny that such exists when in fact and in reality, stealing of male genital organs are spreading like wild fire in recent times.
“It is rather absurd that rather than study and gain fuller apprehensions of the methodology whether orthodox or unorthodox applied by the criminals, police have unfortunately chosen to feign ignorance and maintain that it is yet unclear how the miscreants carry out such acts, but worried residents of the FCT have, for over a month now, been living in fear following reported cases of ‘stealing’ of manhoods, ” the statement said.
