According to the residents of the area, they have had to endure the stench emanating from the dead body for days after several complaints to local authorities have not yielded any result.
A witness told Adom News’ reporter, Sulley Dramani the deceased is a migrant, believed to be in his 40s, who sought shelter in the community.
However, he was sent off by the traditional leaders to search for a cure for his unknown ailment.
It is reported that after being expelled from the community, the stranger decided to hide in a poultry farm in the community without the residents knowing.
It is unclear what caused the death of the man. His badly decomposed and mummified corpse was found on the farm on Thursday, February 4, after residents traced the source of a bad smell that has engulfed the entire community.
It is further reported that nobody has complained of a missing person ever since he appeared in the community to the time of his death.
