forest of Okomu reserve in Iguobazuwa.
Akpors has never gone hunting while Osas has hunted all his life.
When they got to the middle of the forest, Osas told Akpors to sit by
a tree and not make a sound while he checks out an antelope trail.
After he got about a quarter of a mile away, Osas heard a
blood-curling scream which scared away nearby antelope.
He rushed back to Akpors and yelled;
"I think I tell you say make you quiet?"
Akpors replied:
"Shuo, I try o, I really try. When green snake waka pass my leg I nor
shake body or make peem sound. When gorilla come dey breath hot and
smelly smelly air for my face, I nor shake body or make shekele sound.
But when two squirrel waka enter my trouser leg, one come tell the
other one say, 'Chei, see as this two palm kernels big like coconut,
we nor go fit chop dem finish for here, so make we pluck and carry dem
go house', guy a no fit hol am.. naim I come start to halla."
Osas almost died laughing. (Palm kernel ke?)
