A Kenyan family is griped with shock and
joy as their 'dead and buried' son, Vincent
Oguyi returns home to them.
Oyugi, who lives in a rented house in the
outskirts of Narok Town, was believed to
have died in an accident last August. It was
believed that he was inside a pick-up
delivering vegetables to a local market
when the vehicle veered off the road and
killed three people working on a nearby
farm.
According to Daily Nation, the news of his
death sparked off funeral arrangements,
which resulted into the collection and burial
of a body thought to be Oyugi’s on Sunday,
December 4, 2016.
His mother explained that an autopsy and
identification of the body was done at the
Narok County Hospital before they were
granted permission to take it for burial.

She further added that, no DNA tests were
done because of the damage done to the
remains. She said: “The body was in bad
shape and we were convinced that it
belonged to my son, so we proceeded to
make burial arrangements, upon which we
buried him on 4th December last year."
But on Tuesday, January 3, the man who
was presumed dead walked into his family
compound in, Masaba South Sub-County,
Kisii County. He explained that he had
jumped out of the vehicle before it veered
off the road.
He said: “It is true I was in the vehicle but I
jumped out shortly before it rolled, I got a
scratch but walked away shocked and did
not come back to the scene."
He added that he had all the while been at
his residence in Narok and was not aware
that his family was looking for him.

The family members could not come to
terms with the miracle as they began to
check his body for familiar signs to confirm
he was really there.
Oyugi’s uncles, Mose Ombeche and Samuel
Ombogo, said the news of the resurrection
had seriously surprised them. Ombogo also
said tradition demands that a resurrected
man should be cleansed before allowing
him into the house.
“In such circumstances, he would not be
allowed home until certain rites are
conducted, we will have to first buy a white
male chicken or white goat. They will be
killed and eaten by the family to cleanse
him. When the body that is buried here is
exhumed, we will put the innards of the
white goat into the grave to cleanse the
family.” www-naij-com.0.freebasics.com/1081209-joy-son-presumed-dead-buried-returns-home-family-video-photos.html?iorg_service_id_internal=692981340802115">https://https-www-naij-com.0.freebasics.com/1081209-joy-son-presumed-dead-buried-returns-home-family-video-photos.html?iorg_service_id_internal=692981340802115%3BAfrVdFk7I7iSJkgn
