King Sitentu Mpasi in the Kavango region of Namibia
This is a strange story you'll never read about in your local newspaper. I thought you should hear about it, though. I pass this along because I have met one of the people involved. Chief Sitentu Mpasi - called King Mpasi when I was around in 2007. I advise you to keep reading to the end for a case of "That's more information that I actually needed."
A 20-year-old man who was ordered by village elders to pay six cows as punishment for having sex with several goats at Namutuntu village in the Kavango Region of Namibia has so far only managed to pay four cattle.
The culprit, identified as Joseph Kangungu Ngongo, was brought before an Ukwangali Traditional Court hearing on January 22 at Simanya village.
The village’s senior headman, Matheus Nyambwe, said Ngongo paid four cattle and a N$500 admission-of-guilt fine that will go into the coffers of the Ukwangali Traditional Authority.
The headman said of the two remaining cattle, one would to go the leader of the Ukwangali Traditional Authority, Chief Sitentu Mpasi, while the other one goes to the owner of the violated goats at Namutuntu village.
The complainant, Anton Mukunga, told the traditional court that he had on two separate occasions found human footprints coming out of his goats’ pen as he opened the gate to allow the animals out for grazing.
He said he never suspected theft because no goats were missing.
However, when he went to take out the goats for grazing the third time, Mukunga said he saw clothes hanging on a pole in the pen. Upon closer inspection, he saw a naked man having sex with one of the goats inside the pen.
The man ran away naked when he realised that the owner of the goats had spotted him but he was caught by villagers.
During the traditional court hearing, Ngongo pleaded guilty to bestiality. He said he had tried out several goats before marking the hoofs of the animal that satisfied his sexual needs the best.
