He added that victims who lodged complaints were taken to the hospital for medical observation only to discover that the allegations were baseless as their genitals were intact and functional.

He said: “In this regard, police wish to inform the people of Borno not to panic; remain law-abiding and disregard misinformation capable of causing disaffection and disruption of the peaceful atmosphere in the state.

“Police also call on law-abiding citizens to go about their lawful pursuits without fear of molestation and to report any suspicious activities to the nearest police station.”
