Youths Displaying Snake Killed

A 23-year old farmer in Ado-Ekiti, Bayo Ibrahim, have killed an amazing 15-foot snake close to Ado-Afao-Ekiti road.

Onlookers who gave the snake various names like “Aminurin”, “Ojola” and “Ako Monomono”, which are all Yoruba names for a massive snake, said they have never seen a snake as big as that.

According to some residents, the snake had been killing domestic animals, including dogs, sheep, goats and chickens for a while.

Several people from as far as Odo-ado, Oke-Ila, Basiri, Nova Road and even GRA came to see the snake.

Some onlookers who were interviewed said,

“We have never seen anything like this”;

“Is this what we have been living with?” and

“This is the wonder of the year in Ekiti”. A report said.

The snake killer, Ibrahim, is a native of Ilorin, Kwara State capital, he said he saw three snakes while grazing his herd close to the road and killed them with a cutlass.

He told reporters that he, “saw three snakes in a small bush and killed them with my cutlass. I sold two yesterday for N10,000 each. I have also sold this last one for N10,000 to that man.

“I have killed about 12 of such snakes. They always kill our dogs and goats. But they have not killed any person. They do not kill by biting. They roll round their prey and suffocate it, until it dies. If you want to kill them, aim for the head and do not miss it, because if you do, it can be fatal. If you are scared, do not go near it, but if you are sharp and quick, you will kill it easily.” He said.

Another witness said it was strange to see such a long and thick snake,

“To me and most of us here, it is new. I have seen such snakes many times in movies, but never in real life. It will easily kill and swallow humans. You can see how big it is. Even a car cannot kill it. I urge people living in this area to be careful, as more of this snake may still be around here.”
