Kitui County has once again made headlines for a bizarre occurrence that has left residents and the nation in shock. Just three months after a snake fell from the sky and bit a man, another astonishing spectacle has been witnessed in the region.
A patient admitted to a hospital in Kitui received an unexpected visit from their livestock. According to reports, a goat and chickens stormed the hospital to check up on their owner. While the authenticity of the claims could not be verified, pictures shared on social media captured a goat and two chickens in the vicinity of the hospital.
One picture shows the goat seemingly checking in at the receptionist's desk, as if asking for directions to the ward holding its owner. Another image depicts a rooster and a hen perched atop an empty hospital bed.
The incident has sparked wild speculations, with many attributing it to witchcraft. Locals and hospital staff were left in shock, with some residents suggesting that the animals might have come to deliver important information to their guardian who had been away for a while.
On social media, Kenyans have been sharing their reactions to the incident, with some joking that the animals might have been visiting their owner. Others have pointed fingers at witchcraft, with one user suggesting that the incident might be a sign of reincarnation.
