According to reports, at the deceased’s residence where the sharing was to take place, the two butchers hired to kill the cow were unable to make the animal stand and they kept attempting to find a way to kill it.
Igodo, who was inside the house had come out but was receiving a phonecall and was not paying attention to the drama between the two butchers and the cow. All of a sudden, the cow got up and charged towards the deceased, kicked him so hard that he landed on his back and broke his spine.
He was reportedly rushed to the Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Yenagoa before he was referred to the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital, Rivers State where he eventually died.
