A 71-year-old man has caused a buzz online after isolating himself from society for half a century for an unusual reason.
He made a decision to lock himself inside his house when he was 16 years old so that he would not have any contact with a women.
The man managed to stay indoors for 55 years until he was discovered by a team from Afrimax TV who shared his story.
The septuagenarian built a makeshift house for himself deep in the forest where he chose to live without even his family, friends or relatives knowing of his whereabouts.
In a video making the rounds online, he could be seen lying down in his small bamboo-designed house which he has not come out of since he went in.
