56. 'Lalasticlala's great grandfather Chief Lalaca was the first person in Nigeria to swallow a fully grown Cobra snake and survived. Since then all his descendants cannot survive for more than two weeks without eating snake meat. And all wives married into the family must undergo snake pepper soup making initiation ritual before she is allowed to consummate the marriage with he husband, failings which she will be stuck together with her husband if they attempt to make love. The only remedy will be for another elder in the family to repeat the historic feat of swallowing a live Cobra snake. 2 Likes 1 Share |

okomogo: LIE CLOCK!!!...(Laffmatazz) Stella Obasanjo died and went to heaven ... As she stood in front of St. Peter at the Pearly gates, She saw a huge wall of clocks behind her... She asked, "What are all those clocks For?" St Peter answered, "Those are Lie-Clocks... Everyone on earth has a Lie-Clock. Every time you lie, the hands on your clock will move." "Oh," said Stella, "whose clock is that?" "That's Bishop Ajayi Crowther's. The hands have never moved, indicating that he never told a lie." "Incredible," said Stella. "And whose is that one?" St Peter responded, "That's Nnamdi Azikwe's clock. The hands have moved twice, telling us that Zik told only two lies in his entire life." "Where's my husband, Obasanjo's clock? "Obasanjo's clock is in the Angel's office. He's using it as a ceiling fan, its rotating with high speed: What of Lai Mohammed's?: His own clock is being upgraded to be used as a Helicopter rotor blades for its incredible speed!! lai baba lie hold phd |
