A normal trip to ‘answer nature calling’ in
bathroom took a painful turn for one man from Ghana this week.
Reports are saying that Kwabena Nkrumah, 34 from
Ghana got bitten on his gonads whilst going to the toilet in the Ashanti region
of the central African country.
It is said he was sitting on the public toilet “when
‘the big black snake’ lunged from below and latched onto his genitals.”
Nkrumah, a porter from radio station Kessben FM,
almost fainted when the serpent attempted to strike again. He ran out of the
loo with his tail painfully between his legs shouting “snake, snake, snake!”
Nkrumah told a local radio program that he thought
that “the pain on his penis was normal, until he looked down and saw the snake.”
Kwabena got examined at a local hospital and is
now recovering at home.
Now remember to look before you sit. You never
know what is lurking in the u-bend
