Two men, whose names were not identified, fought Tuesday night at around 11pm over a mad woman at Matisi market.  According to Geoffrey Masibo a watch man who witnessed the scene, the two people are said to be touts at Matisi market Bungoma County.

The mad woman is said to have come from Mutomolo village after walking aimlessly, jumping up and down exposing her thighs/breasts briefly. Little did she know that some crazy men were admiring her, especially her breasts that appeared full and shy. Her movements send some men salivating and wishing for darkness to come earlier than usual.

Admirers of the mad woman could not show their intentions openly as were waiting for the night as the corrupted Swahili saying goes, ‘siku njema huonekana usiku’ (a good day is known at night). All eyes were on her to see on which verandah she would rest for the night.  

According to an eye witness who is a watchman at Mulukoba hotel of Matisi market, one of them was tip-toeing in darkness towards the verandah of the hotel where the mad woman was sleeping. At the same time the other man was hiding behind a pillar of a nearby shop as he seemed still calculating on how he would pounce on her.

As this one was still timing, the other man went straight to his target, pushed aside her heap of luggage/trash and pulled her hand which annoyed the hiding man who confronted him. They fought and rolled on the ground several times before they were separated by watch men on duty.

As they were fighting, the woman didn’t bother looking at whatever they were doing but instead, she curled up herself on a mat in the verandah of hotel snoring soundly.  Her guardian Angel must have been on guard and rescued her from rapists who ended up fighting themselves.

What makes men harbor such deep appetites for a mad woman? This must be the reason why mad women conceive and deliver. Can the same happen with ladies having romantic feelings towards mad men?
