“Zinapikanga Mutura Na Supu” Over 7 donkeys found dead as residents reveal what they are used for. In a disturbing incident, the tranquil community of Kithyoko, situated along the Kanyoonyoo-Mwingi road, was shaken by the discovery of over seven donkeys brutally slaughtered by unknown individuals. The heart-wrenching event has raised serious concerns about animal welfare and public health.
Close sources with insights into the situation have revealed that the culprits may have a sinister motive behind these heinous acts. It has come to light that some of the meat from these unfortunate donkeys is being intended for the preparation of popular street foods like “mutura” (a type of sausage) and rice, which are then sold at significantly reduced prices in local street markets.
The use of donkey meat for such culinary purposes is not only alarming but also raises health and safety questions for consumers. Donkeys are not traditionally raised or slaughtered for human consumption, making the sourcing and processing of their meat a potential risk.
This incident serves as a stark reminder of the importance of both animal welfare and public health regulations. It calls for immediate attention from local authorities to apprehend those responsible for this cruel act and to ensure the safety of the community. The incident underscores the need for stricter monitoring of food sources and the enforcement of regulations that safeguard both animal and human well-being. It also highlights the importance of public awareness to discourage the consumption of such meat, thereby promoting safe and ethical food practices in the region.
