A man who went into the wilderness on a quest to “speak to his ancestors”’ found himself trapped in a tree for five days, Limpopo police said.

He was finally freed by a search and rescue team on Friday on the Sambandou mountains at the Mphaphuli Nature Reserve outside Thohoyandou, said Brig Motlafela Mojapelo.

“Traditional healer Mpfunzeni Solomon Ramashia, aged 53, was reported missing at the Thohoyandou police station on Monday, December 2. This after he and his friend Moris Sambo, aged 47, had on Sunday gone to the nature reserve to look for traditional herbs. The two became separated after the victim allegedly told his friend that he wanted to speak to his ancestors alone,” said Mojapelo.

A police helicopter was brought in but the rescue operations were disrupted by bad weather in the area.
On Friday, rescue workers finally reached him. Mojapelo said. Ramashia was extremely exhausted when he was found.

What a waste of resources.

It seemed he had fallen from the mountain into a tree.

Either his ancestors kicked him off the mountain or they saved his carcass by letting him fall into a tree
