A football coach identified simply as Gaso has been rescued by the police after members of a local vigilante group, OSPAC, allegedly assaulted and paraded him over claims that he magically stole another man’s manhood in Igwuruta, Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers State.
A viral video seen by PUNCH Online showed the coach, dressed in blue jeans and a black T-shirt, with his hands tied in front of him, while members of the vigilante group interrogated and assaulted him.
In the video, a man dressed in a blue caftan alleged that Gaso, who hails from Okrika, approached him to ask for transport fare to his hometown.
The man claimed he offered to pay the fare directly at a motor park instead of giving him cash, but alleged that shortly afterwards he noticed his manhood had disappeared and raised the alarm.
He said, “I said let us cross the road, let me pay you to Igwuruta. Before I knew it, the man that said I should give him money started moving fast ahead of me.
