Mother cuts her 3-year-old son's penis

This is serious, the Manengole-Nkongsamba community in the western part of Cameroon, has been thrown into serious confusion and shock when a 30-year-old mother committed a bizarre act by cutting off her 3-year-old son's penis. The gruesome incident, according to afrocosmpolitan.com, happened on the 29th of November, 2014.

                   The woman who could not really say the reason behind her actions, is currently in jail awaiting trial while the poor innocent child named Njankep Alexandre, is currently under intensive care at the Protestant Hospital in Ndoungue as doctors battle to save his life.

                 According to Andre Ghomsi, a nurse at the Doungue hospital, the mother, Nadesh K, admitted to committing the horrendous mutilation on her son and said the removed part of the penis has been thrown into a stream.

The child was rushed to the hospital by a neighbour named Claude Tankeu who came after the act had been committed.

The Gendarmerie, (Cameroonian police), says Nadege K. is a mother of four who has been epileptic since she was ten. She became mentally unstable due to her poor health condition and has been receiving assistance from her mother, Maman Helen.
