An assault victim is struggling to come to terms with the horrifying loss of his penis last week.
Mr Ronald ole Kitare, 27, told the Nation he never imagined that a woman he had come to adore could savagely attack him.
The man now recuperating at Coast General Hospital in Mombasa has vowed never to trust any woman in his life after his fiancée’s vicious attack.
Mr Kitare, who works as a security guard in Diani, separated with his wife early this year as a result of infidelity, bringing to an end, their four-year relationship.
He then fell in love with another woman, and was planning to marry her, only to be hit by the blow of losing his manhood last week.
He claimed his girlfriend arrived home looking drunk, a state he had never seen her in before, sparking a quarrel between them.
“I tried to inquire why she was drunk, but instead of answering me, she confronted me,” Mr Kitare said from his hospital bed.
He added: “My fiancée, who I had planned to marry in the next few months, arrived home at about 8pm and we differed for a few minutes, but later we reconciled,” he said.
Mr Kitare said the woman claimed his estranged wife abused her over the phone for being other people’s “man snatcher”, an issue she did not take kindly.
“Due to that, she threatened to do something to ensure I will not have any other woman in my life. But after some discussion, we resolved our differences and came to terms,” said Mr Kitare.
“I thought all was well since we even made love that night, but because it was a hot night, I decided to sleep on a mat while my fiancée spent the night in the bed.
“I never thought she still had grudge against me, but at about 12am, she sneaked and chopped off my penis using a kitchen knife; she threw the organ away,” he claimed.
But on Monday, Faith Kamulu, 20, denied the charges of chopping off Mr Kitare’s penis before a Kwale court.
Bleeding profusely
Mr Kitare said on Tuesday that he became unconscious that night, but after a while, he regained consciousness and found the woman stunned at what she had done.
“I was bleeding profusely and I was rescued by my neighbours who heard me yelling for help.”
Mr Kitare said that neighbours arrested the woman and handed her over to police officers from Diani, when they arrived at his house.
He said police took him to Msambweni Hospital, where he was treated and later referred to Coast General Hospital.
The woman is still in police cells waiting for Mr Kitare to record a statement with the police. The victim told the Nation he would never forgive the woman who has made him impotent.
Though Mr Kitare has resigned to having no more children, doctors at the hospital said cosmetic surgery could be conducted to restore his manhood.
An officer in charge of the patient, Ms Evah Hussein, said an artificial organ can be planted to help him in discharging urine and even in reproduction.
“The surgery to re-attach the organ was not done in time and cosmetic surgery can be done at Kenyatta National Hospital in Nairobi to help the patient in urinating and even regain his sexual function if well conjoined with the urethra,” Ms Hussein said.
At the moment, the organ is being preserved at the Coast General Hospital awaiting consent from the patient to be disposed of.
