Man Bites Off Son's Ear For Defending Wife

A truck loader, Udeme Inim, 30, allegedly bit off his stepson’s ear,  in the Ebute Meta area of Lagos State on Saturday.

The incident happened around 11am on Asaka Street, off Abule-Nla Road, Ebute Meta West, Punch newspaper reports.


It was gathered that there had been a disagreement between him and his wife, which had led to the suspect assaulting her.

Punch Metro learnt that when the victim, Christopher Bassey, intervened, Inim left his wife and attacked him.

In the ensuing scuffle, Inim, an indigene of Akwa Ibom State, was said to have gone for the teenager’s right ear and bit it off.

The victim was rushed to a hospital shortly after he reported the matter to the Iponri Police Station, but his ear could not be saved.

He said,
“On that day, he was fighting with my mum and at a point he began to destroy some of our property. It was too much for me to bear.
“So I tried to stop him and that was when he attacked me and bit off my ear.”
The police arraigned Inim before a Magistrate’s Court on one count of assault. Inim said,
 “I am employed. I work with Cross Country Company as the manager. It was the police that gave me the clothes in their station; it is not my clothes.”


The Investigating Police Officer, Sergeant Dibia Godwin, told the court that Inim had entered the station stark naked.
 “He works as a loader with Cross Country. On that day, the victim had first come to the station to report; there was blood all over him, he had to be taken to the hospital.
“Shortly after, he (Inim) also rushed in. He was stark naked. He said he wanted to report the same matter and we wondered how he could say he wanted to make a report after disfiguring somebody’s ear. We had to get something to put on him.”
