Cock refuses to be slaughtered, talks

MUKONO � Shock gripped residents of Misindye village, Goma sub-county when a cock spoke and refused to be slaughtered, writes Joel Ogwang.

An unknown resident reportedly abandoned the cock at the sub-county headquarters where it stayed for four days before Sekagya picked it and kept it at his home.

He allegedly sold it to another resident at sh5,000 on Friday before Christmas day. The resident returned the cock, saying he was scared of slaughtering a cock possed by evil spirits. Sekagya refunded the money but was not satisfied with the man�s explanation.

On Monday evening, Sekagya tried to slaughter the cock but was scared even more by a strange human voice coming from its throat. This time, it threatened to kill any one who killed or ate its flesh.

�The cock spoke in Luganda, saying any one who slaughtered or ate its flesh would die,� Sekagya said at his home.

He said the cock had refused to leave his home and that whenever he took it and dumped it far away from his home, it came back.

He also said it kept following him wherever he went. Sekagya has reportedly contacted leading traditional healers in the village but they failed to kill the cock.

By press time, the strange cock was still tied to a long rope in Sekagya�s home.
