The source said:-
“The native doctor enquired about the whereabouts of his goat as soon he noticed its sudden disappearance.
“He was informed that a mentally derailed man untied it and took it to his house few kilometers away. They gave him the direction to the madman’s house and he went straight to the place.
“When he got there, he met the madman already slaughtering the goat. The madman told the herbalist that it was not only the herbalist that had a right to eat goat every day; saying it was his (madman’s) turn to eat the day’s goat.
“While the herbalist was still challenging him, the madman quickly dashed into his room and came out with a machete.
“The native doctor took to his heels on sighting the machete in the hand of the madman, but the madman pursued him and caught up with him and hacked him. The native doctor bled to death before help could come his way.”
