An hunter identified as Ajaja in Ondo state, Nigeria, killed an Elephant at Idanre a tourist area. Ajaja was pictured posing with his leg on the huge elephant with rifle in his hand …
In a Nigeria of 90s or thereabouts Ajaja would be praised by many for killing an Elephant… It’s a different story today, he’s rather insulted and backlashed by social media users. ..
Veteran comedian reacted also to the issue…
He says
Congratulations. You killed the elephant. The meat will last 6 months. Or if you sell it you will make lets say about 200k… hmmm. Then someone will say his agency protects the endangered species in Nigeria. They think it’s just about placing adverts to justify their annual allocation. If we had functional reserves, would we not have more value for this elephant? There are full grown adults of 40 years plus, that have never set their eyes on a real elephant, or even touched one. But hey… You can not blame the man. If he knew how much that elephant would have fetched him ALIVE… He would not have killed it. And see the spectators… all wishing it was their luck.
