On Monday, Adamawa State Polytechnic experienced a disturbance following the alleged theft of manhood from six male students. According to reports, two unidentified individuals greeted the students by shaking hands, after which the affected students observed a significant reduction in the size of their private parts, resembling that of a matchstick.

A witness, speaking to journalists, mentioned that fellow students quickly gathered to confront the strangers and possibly persuade them to reverse their actions. However, security personnel intervened, preventing the students from taking matters into their own hands.

The eyewitness stated, “The students became violent because the police and polytechnic authorities prevented them from lynching the suspected private part thieves,” as reported by Daily Post.

It was reported that the angered students blocked Galadima Aminu Way in Jimeta, disrupting traffic along the major road where the polytechnic's main campus is situated. Restoring order required the concerted efforts of security personnel, including the military, police, and civil defence.

Confirming the incident, the polytechnic's spokesperson, Albert Matilah, said, “We woke up to this unfortunate situation. There have been rumors that criminals who specialize in snatching private parts of individuals were in town. And this morning, six of our students complained that their private parts had disappeared.”

Matilah added that the culprits had been apprehended and handed over to the police.
