There was drama in Ziwa area of Uasin Gishu county on Monday when a burial ceremony was interrupted by a bull for over one hour.
The bull is said to have intruded the event and thwarted any attempts by the locals to drive it away.
According to the locals who attended the funeral ceremony, the bull loitered on the stage, near the deceased casket for 1 hour threatening to hit anyone that came near it, a move that almost brought the event to a standstill.
Meshack Barmuriat, who identified himself as the friend to the deceased claimed that the deceased before he died had singled out the bull he loved and wanted it slaughtered on his burial day, the wish that family members ignored.
“I urged the family that the deceased had specified a particular bull to be slaughtered a request but they chose to ignore it“noted Barmuriat.
Eunice, the aunt of the deceased however stepped in to save the situation as he literally talked to the deceased explaining to him why they chose to slaughter the other bull.
“Please forgive us, we loved you so much though death stole you from us, we chose this bull because we felt it would be sufficient to feed the congregation," the aunt pleaded with the man in the casket to the shock of other mourners.
Surprisingly, after this small talk with the dead, the bull finally 'agreed' to be driven away and the burial ceremony continued.
