Kwame Adamu, a 26-year-old unemployed resident of Bowomoden, a farming community in the Wassa Amenfi Central District of the Western Region, was reported to have had body intimacy with a sheep belonging to one Mallam Dawda, a resident in the area.
Sources intimated that Adamu was caught doing the unthinkable last Monday at about 10pm.
DAILY GUIDE learnt that the suspect was subjected to severe beatings by some of the town folks who considered the act as a bad omen to the area.
Adamu has subsequently been banished from the community after the case was reported to the chief of the area, Nana Ntiako.
An eyewitness, Odesheba Tahiru Alidu, who confirmed the story to DAILY GUIDE, could not fathom why Adamu, believed to be a Burkinabe, should have sex with a sheep when he could marry one of the ladies in the community.
“Adamu is a handsome guy and could have lured any lady to engage her in the act. Why should he rather go for a sheep? May be he might have a reason. But it’s still not right!” Alidu pointed out.
Tahiru Alidu told DAILY GUIDE that on that fateful day at about 10pm the owner of the sheep ensured that all his animals had gone inside the pen and went inside his room to rest.
The eyewitness indicated that Adamu allegedly managed to sneak into the pen and surprisingly, started having sexual intercourse with one of the livestock.
Tahiru alleged that while Adamu was ‘enjoying’ himself with his new found ‘lover,’ the owner of the animal heard some unusual noise from the pen and so he quickly went to check what was amiss.
“When Malam Dawda opened the gate of the pen, he saw Adamu having stripped himself naked and having sexual intercourse with one of the sheep,” he asserted.
According to Alidu Tahiru, Madam Dawda immediately raised an alarm and majority of the residents, mainly the youth, rushed to the scene to catch a glimpse of the human being who was purportedly behaving like an animal.
He asserted that Adamu, who was obviously frightened upon seeing the large crowd, started begging for forgiveness, but he was subjected to severe beatings by some of the irate town folks.
Alidu said that later the case was reported to the chief of the area and Adamu was asked to leave the community and never to come back.
According to the chief, Adamu’s act had incurred the wrath of the gods in the community and so his continued presence could bring untold calamities to the people.
