The people of Uvinza District in Kigoma Province, Tanzania, were shocked on Sunday when they woke up in the morning to a woman that gave birth to a chicken.
A bizarre incident was witnessed in Tanzania after a 27-year-old woman gave birth to a strange creature with no feathers that resembled a chicken.
According to reports, the woman was rushed to the hospital by her 52-year-old husband when she complained of labor pains and when she was admitted to the labor room, nurses were shocked after she gave birth to the strange creature.
Chief Inspector of Kigoma, James Manyama, addressed the media and said the strange creature will remain under police custody awaiting an examination in a Government laboratory.
“This woman did not show any signs of having a pregnancy that was out of the ordinary. The creature that came out of her did not look like it came from her uterus. Even though she looked pregnant, unconfirmed reports say that the creature was entered into her by a witch doctor. We are still investigating with the authorities to get to the bottom of the matter,” said the officer.
Tanzanians have a strong belief in witchcraft and sacrifices to the spirits through individuals.
