Jana mbirrioneya Thagichu ameenda ku-inspect ranch yake pale Kinangofu. The visit involves touring the entire ranch of approx 27.000 acres and checking the various animals' health status, and the numbers. Nikapata hakuna jirani amejaribu encroachment, all the trees are intact, the cows are ok (mbili ziko na mimba) and the Merino and Dorper sheep pia ziko sawa. Plus the two donkeys are still ferking and no results to show two years after they were brought in. Pia nilipatana na several hares and frogs. Dam imejaa flamingos and mini-ostriches.
After being satisfied everything is in order, I turned my back to the animals, to leave back to the city. Suddenly, niliskia nimegongwa kutoka nyuma, nikaangushwa chini. Kupinduka niangalie ni nini hio nikapatana na kichwa ya kondoo, heading to me head on, literally. I had to lie low like an envelope to avoid fracturing my skull. The sheep missed me, ikapita then it turned again to hit me. Mark you I had not done anything that can be construed as provocation to the sheep. Ilibidi nitoke unyoya with the sheep hot on my heels. I was saved by the quick action of Mzee Wakhisi, who manhandled the sheep. I was not hurt, except mifupa za mgongo niliskia zimenyoroshwa sawasawa.
As we speak, hio mnyama iko kwa freezer yangu. Sipendangi ujinga.
