There was drama in Kayole Estate as a Mutura Vendor was nabbed transporting offals, piglets, puppies to his base.
The residents who were irate commanded him to open the tightly tied gunny bag that he was carrying for them to inspect.
Pleas fell on deaf ears as the concoction of meat shocked many when it was poured down revealing the above mentioned mixture.
He was lucky, he was not beaten but residents frog marched him to the nearest police station.
In 2018, James Mukangi was caught skinning cats and selling them as samosas in Nakuru Town, Nakuru County.
A court magistrate court sentenced him to 3 years in Prison in June 2018.
He admitted to have slaughtered over 1000 cats and sold the meat to restaurants, and samosa vendors in that town. He also revealed that he made Sh500 per cat
In 2016, a man known as Ndung’u left tongues wagging when he confessed that he uses any kind of meat he comes across to prepare samosas, and Mutura.
To Ndung’u, anything goes. From dead marabou stork to frogs from a nearby swamp and any other animals killed by speeding vehicles on the roads in the area; he confessed, leaving everyone gasping.
A young boy blew up the butcher’s cover when he stumbled upon Ndung’u dressing a dead dog’s flesh behind his house.
“The boy had hurriedly jumped into the butcher’s backyard to collect a football that had strayed out of the field of play, when he chanced upon him skinning a dog and cutting it into pieces,” said a resident.
The boy raised alarm and within a short time, curious locals had assembled at the butcher’s house, demanding he explains the existence of the dead dog he was cutting into pieces and the source of other meat he uses in making delicacies at his eatery.
They roughed him up into confession.
“These meats are not any different from beef, mutton or even donkey meat we unknowingly eat in this city. Again, if dog meat had been that bad, then even the Chinese who are famed for eating it could have been affected or died long ago,” he joked.
