Shock as goat gives birth to kid with human face

By Eric Koome

Nkiboe Village in Igembe Central was left in shock after a goat gave birth to a kid with a face resembling that of a human child and the tits of a dog.

According to Beatrice Karimi, the goat’s owner, the bizarre incident threw the village into a frenzy with many villagers linking the incident to witchcraft.

Karimi said suspicions around the goat’s delivery began after it delayed birth from the normal five months to nine months, the gestation period of a human being.

Musa Murungi, who claims to understand the history of the family, said that their grandfather had once picked a goat at an Ameru sacred place known as IOMBE, which he alleges has led to complications.

He, however, said that leaders of the community would intervene and cleanse the family according to tradition to avoid other such cases from taking place.
