Residents of Iriani village in Chuka Sub County on Thursday morning woke up to a rare spectacle when a witch performed magic in public.

The renowned witch popularly known as Njua, had been called by bodaboda operators of Chuka town to perform his black magic so that they could know the person who killed one of them whose body was found dumped in a maize farm on Wednesday morning.

Mr Njua, aged about 80, arrived at crime scene carrying a black bag full of paraphernalia and in company of his helper.

On arrival he slaughtered a black goat that had been brought by the deceased kins before proceeding with the ritual.

The witch went on, undressed, and remained with only a black short before removing his items from the bag arranging them in a style.

He then drunk some liquid with his helper put in a long decorated horn before sharing it with the specific bodaboda operators who had contacted him.

Mr Njua warned that the men who took the drink must not share a bed with their wives for a period of seven days scaring hundreds of onlookers who had gathered to witness.
