Newspaper claims suspect transformed into a goat
1 hr 38 mins ago

LAGOS, Nigeria – One of Nigeria's biggest daily newspapers reported that police implicated a goat in an attempted automobile theft. In a front-page article on Friday, the Vanguard newspaper said that two men tried to steal a Mazda car two days earlier in Kwara State, with one suspect transforming himself into a goat as vigilantes cornered him.

The paper quoted police spokesman Tunde Mohammed as saying that while one suspect escaped, the other transformed into a goat as he was about to be apprehended.

The newspaper reported that police paraded the goat before journalists, and published a picture of the animal. Police in the state couldn't immediately be reached for comment.

Belief in black magic is widespread in Nigeria, particularly in far-flung rural areas.

You ain't kidding!

Four years ago, I was doing research on Nigeria for work and came across a story about a guy who transformed himself first into a barber pole, then into a lamp post!

While he was a lamp post, he was very tall and ran away so fast no one could catch him!

Tell that to the judge!
