A Christmas cow bought to celebrate Christmas has killed a former youth president, Mr Sobokime Igodo, of the Obogoro community in Yenagoa Local Government Area of Bayelsa State
According to Daily Trust, the deceased and a group of friends had contributed money to buy the cow and share it as they normally do every Christmas.
Two butchers hired to kill the cow at the deceased residence were unable to make the animal stand so they could tie its legs before killing it.
Igodo was said to be on a phone call when the cow suddenly got up and charged towards him, kicking him and slamming his back on the floor.
A source confirmed that the youth leader later died at the teaching hospital in Port Harcourt.
When contacted, the police spokesman in Bayelsa State, SP Asinim Butswat, denied knowledge of the incident. He however promised to contact the Divisional Police Officer in charge of the area and revert to our reporter. He had not got back as at the time of filing this report.
