NTV Anchor Jane Ngoiri's Strange Encounter at Kirinyaga Crocodile Farm

NTV news anchor Jane Ngoiri on Monday had a rare encounter with a crocodile while in Kirinyaga county.

The journalist and her colleagues were at Kirinyaga Crocodile Farm in Makutano on a guided tour inside the creatures' enclosure.

In the video shared on social media, Jane is seen visibly anxious as the guide holds the baby crocodile's jaws.

She is directed to lift the tail of the creature which she does asking the guide if he has held the jaw firmly.

"Umeshikilia vizuri? (Have you held it firmly)," she is heard asking.

It is at this time that her grip slips slightly and the crocodile starts wiggling sending the NTV anchor in a state of panic as she screams.

She lets go as the guide holds it firmly laughing at the journalist's reaction.

After the encounter, she explained that the experience was one that almost sent her into a state of shock.

"My friend ushasikia ile umeshika roho literally (My friend, have you ever felt like you are holding your heart in your hand?)" she posed to her colleague and fellow anchor Olive Burrows.

Here is the video:

The crocodile farm is located after Sagana Bridge from Nairobi and holds 12,000 crocodiles at a time.

The crocodiles are reared mainly for their skin while some meat is sold to food outlets but the rest is fed on other crocodiles.
