A THIRTY-year-old man is battling for his life in Kitwe Central Hospital after he chopped off his private parts and rippped off part of his stomach in a suicide bid.
The incident happened on Wednesday morning in Ipusukilo Township when Chris Shapi, in a rage, chopped off the reproductive organ before ripping open his stomach, leaving intestines hanging.
As he started pulling the intestines out, neighbours mobilised themselves and disarmed him while he bled profusely and subsequently became unconscious.
Copperbelt commissioner of police Mary Tembo confirmed the incident, while Kitwe Central Hospital (KCH) spokesperson, Grey Chishimba said Mr Shapi was admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU).
Mr Chishimba said Mr Shapi was taken to the hospital on Wednesday and that authorities were informed that he had cut off his private parts and stabbed himself in the stomach.
Eye witnesses and sources in the neighbourhood said the victim had complained just before the incident that he was disappointed with his wife who he claimed left him after he ran out of money.
The sources said Mr Shapi had differed with his wife and the two were living separately for a long time.
”We found him trying to pull his intestines two metres away from where he chopped off his manhood,” said a neighbour who declined to be named.
A check by a Times reporter at the hospital yesterday morning found Mr Shapi admitted to the ICU and was unable to talk
A relative found at the bedside, who only identified himself as his uncle, said the man attempted to commit suicide by chopping off his manhood and stabbing himself in the stomach.
“He did that himself and as family we don’t know what led him to do that as he is not talking,” he said.
In Chinsali, another man is battling for his life in hospital after throwing himself into an? on-coming truck in an attempt to commit suicide.
This was after he hacked his wife on the shoulder and chest and left her for dead.
John Ng’uni, 48, fled the home, but residents gave a spirited chase and apprehended him as he struggled to get out of the grip.
Muchinga Province deputy commissioner of police Chilinje Nyirenda said Mr Ng’uni managed to free himself from enraged residents and threw himself onto an on-coming truck and trailer and sustained serious injuries.
Nguni had axed his wife Patricia Nyrirenda on the shoulder and chest and thought she had died.??He jumped in front of the speeding truck as he was being taken to Nambuluma Police Station.
Both Mr Nguni and his wife are admitted to Chinsali District Hospital.

Nice translations!
Umwaume umo ku Kitwe, Naiputula Ubukala panuma yaku imona ubusaverge, nechichetekelo ati akabuka kubafwa. Dats in mother tongue translation..em i correct?
Umulumendo ku musumba wa Kitwe aliicena kwisamba nokuputula ubufyashi panuma yakuilishanya pakubutuka kwamwina mwakwe ilyo icuma capwile. Uyu wine tata kabili alitwalilila nokufwayafye ukufumya amala atifye ayipaye nokufwa imfwa iyabipa. That is what you would broadcast on the air or in publications meant for public consumption…
Who cares about your mother tongue? It sounds like Greek to me.
nSata Nyoko ma Jealous, just make your own translation into your language, unless you aint proud of your mother tongue!
Please dont resuscitate the man,what use is he going to be without his mining tool? Let his wish be fulfilled as sad as it is.
chipuba ichi ayi..atase..
There are easier ways of killing yourself.
he will go to hell
This is happening because the 90 days more money in your pocket did not happen.
Disgusting Stories.. Badly written article too..!!.. May those two men rot in hell……NO, they must not die so that they can live to feel the pain of being selfish *****s!

Are you sure it’s not his WIFE who did that to him?
ba gelo ubwingi cipubafye
A man inflicts such horrific harm on himself just because the wife left him, unbelievable how weird the world has become.
Wat a scarely nd savage way of personal suicide.I cant jst imagine ‘ouch’.
Sad reading. We should not judge thier actions though bad
I think the manwood was rotten and sinking.
I think the manhood was rotten and sinking.
He is better off dead that to live without a drilling Machine.
lol, ati drilling machine aii?
Morals and immorality. Depends how you look at it. Depends were you live in the world. some support self killing, others support assisted suicide, others support owner sacrifce of own children, all these are immoral but yet moral elsewhere. Its a crazy world today. That which used to be human wrong is now a human right. But going to cut off your tool kit! The goings must be crazy, indeed. Forever and ever, as it was and ever shall be world without end. Suicide has ever been there. the method taken differs and depend on how personally aggrieved an individual gets. You can predict what a group can do but it difficult to predict what an individual can do. Tough luck these guys are now suffering but indeed inconvinient to relatives, friends and even medical staff.
May I know ( while not taking the issue lightly) what a manhood is? Can we raise our professional writing skills please.Biologically there is no anatomical part called a manhood.
I like these two words “drilling machine” very funny guys, so no akamushimpo.
I’m so impressed by your holiness.You must have read your Bible so well.If one part of your body causes you to sin,cut it off.Better to enter Heaven without it than allow the whole body to roast in Hell.I hope your Bishop from Palibe Future Tabernacle(PFT) gets this sad news!
What an id!ot!! Women are like buses – if you miss one, there is another one coming round the corner. If Shapi really wanted to do a good job of dying he could have tried to hang himself with a rope. Now he will be dickless and with offals hanging out for the rest of his short boring life!
Yes buses heading to the kwa walale…. if they are heading to sandton.. yalishupa mudala
OK. This is the most incompetent man that ever lived. Surely, why would you want to go out in such a horrific way? I mean, jilies do the job quite efficiently, and you go out on a high!
Mwaalumi umwi ku dolopo lya ku kitwe ategwa ufumba kalamfu nkaambo ka kuti wakalikuyanda kulijaya mulomwana ooyu wakalitenda kubusankwa
… “after he chopped off his private parts and rippped off part of his stomach in a suicide bid”. You F.U.C.K.I.N.G moron. Who cuts of his d.i.c.k. stabs himself and removes his intestines?
Have you not heard of “poison” if you’re really trying to kill yourself? I hope you recover fully even without your ka small prick. Trust me, you’ll surely regret doing this and wish you had died. *****!
The world is really going crazy. How does a sane man chop off his driller.
ati drilling machine kekekekekekekekekekekek….eish!
muntu mutwe
We should try and find ways of helping and not making fun of a dying person.There are very few counselling services in Zambia unlike the western world where someone can call a hotline and speak to someone.There are some mental illnesses not identified as being important in Zambia until someone deteriorates.I am not saying that there are no suicides in the UK or US if anything they have the highest!!!

Pippa, I hope you’re speaking in general and not about this knucklehead in this article.
Chap was not serious! He cut the wrong neck!
Muwele wele, bushe ifyanso fyakwangalilako
Pali gelo??? Some men really fall in love!! Too much of everything is bad. Always expect the worst in life, you will live longer! Wishing him quick recovery. Are they re-attaching his ntwenu!
#32 DOKOTA UNZA – Lool! You are crazy, man!
But the guy is STRONG! If you can cut off your ntwenu, then after than rip open your stomach, meanwhile you are still walking – and then while you are walking you are taking out your intestines!!!!!! You’ve got to be a savage to be able to do that. He is real strong and savage MF. That is something out of a horror movie!
How does he urinate now that he has got rid of his arsenal?Maybe the wife taunted him that it was tiny!I pity him.He needs prayers.GOD BLESS ZAMBIA.
@32 Dokota UNZA wanjipaya ku nseko… ‘wrong neck’!
IF IT MAKES YOU TO SIN CUT IT OFF, GREAT MAN YOU KNOW THE BIBLE
mudala sevintu
LOVE
IS MONEY REALLY A CENTER OF MARRIAGES IN THIS MODERN LIFE?
You can’t take life. You don’t own it , it’s God’s, if you your love left you ,definately it was a lesson that she loved you because you had money. Nevertheless , that didn’t mean taking your life away.
