A man was hospitalised in what eyewitnesses said was a bad experience for him.
It is alleged the man consumed the ‘delicious’ ‘mutura and soup and got carried away by its taste forgetting he only had Sh20.
The incident happened yesterday evening in Kisii town.
Eyewitnesses gave an account that the mutura seller was confident most of his customers would pay up after sampling his 'delicacy' but when it came to payment time, the man could not provide Sh30 which was the cost of munching some mutura.
The mutura seller could not control his temper and started beating up the man accusing him of wasting his time.
“Austine (Mutura man) started demanding for his money from the guy (Customer) saying he wasted his time and tried to steal from him beating him up,” said Benard Munene.
The customer was later rushed to hospital by good samaritans after he passed out.
The locals said mutura ‘troubles’ are always common in the area since they are very addictive and one easily forgets and may eat more than they can afford.
