Car thief transforms into a goat

Tweet

Here is a weird news story from Nigera. According to a newspaper in Nigera, two men tied to steal a car; and when the citizens chased them, one of them turned into a goat (the other man got away). Reading this story, I must admit that I am amazed that anyone can believe this. But then again, we are talking Nigera where witches are still being hunted and killed. I don't know any magician, witch or lunatic that can do it in the western world. Maybe we don't have strong enourgh magic to do such, or maybe I just have not encountered it. The historian in me asks what type of drugs and toxins are in their food supply. Or is it just religion that makes them believe this. Then again, in recent days, we saw a bad president try to turn himself into a good one; not that it worked, in my opinion. Of course, one has to wonder if we don't have criminals who can do this in the western world. Makes one wonder what type of animals some of our disgraced politicians will turn themselves into.
