A day after a snake sent VIPs scampering for safety at

President Uhuru Kenyatta's

function in Kisumu, another one disrupted the funeral of a suicide victim for 10 minutes in Ang'aro village, Teso North.

It was spotted in between mourners during the sermon and they scampered for safety, breaking some chairs.
Some brave people chased after the serpent and one killed it using a stick.

Sergeant Major Adakake

of the Salvation Army Corps

said

the snake's presence at the burial was the work of Satan.

Like the Teso incident, the green snake in Kisumu was spotted by the presidential security team, coiled

on

a pole

on the dais

at Kisumu State Lodge minutes before

the President arrived

for

the National Drama Festival

on Tuesday.

The presidential security used a stick to kill it.
