Shock as woman discharges maggots from private part

Residents of Olakula area of Idiroko in Ipokia Local Government Area (LGA) of Ogun State witnessed a jaw-dropping spectacle on Wednesday as maggots dropped continuously from the private parts of a woman identified as Iya Toheeb.

The scene turned chaotic as residents trooped out to see the woman sat in a car with the assistance of family members and sympathisers.

It was thought that she might have been a victim of money-making ritual after her condition allegedly defied orthodox medication.

Our correspondent learnt that the woman was also brought to one of the men she was associated with, a carpenter in the community. Of the reason for bringing the afflicted woman to the man, a source at the scene who asked not to be named, said: “The woman was brought to the carpenter who was her former husband. Her family members believed that the man may be responsible for her worsening condition that defied treatment in hospital where she was admitted for months.
