Finally Nairaland is back to normal...hopefully.

That's definitely an Elapid (spitting-cobra specie) very common in Africa and probably a rinkhals or ringhals.

Really? I cannot identify it, but it seems to have a hooded neck, which suggests that it's some kind of cobra.

The neck pattern suggests it is a member of the elapid family (the cobras).

Don't just say its a cobra without facts.... The cobra in the picture you posted is a king cobra ad its definitely longer than the snake the OP killed.
That's why I suspected it to be the banded water snake.
My man there is no water snake here in Nigeria not the type you felt this is, that is a spitting cobra

He would've protected his fish pond against intrusions like these instead of killing the poor creature.
How many more snakes will he have to kill? In nature once a wild animal locates a food source it will keep coming back...it doesn't know its causing u demage or not.
Animals will hunt and kill prey to stay alive.

He killed it the same way the said snake will kill other creatures for food or self defence.

Animal right activists are mostly irrational or hypocrites.

That is a forest cobra(spitting) not a water snake or king cobra.

Igbadu in yoruba. There is great enmity between this snake and dogs in Nigeria due to the popularity of this particular snake.

if you wake up in the morning and see that your dogs has a swollen eye(s) which usually last for 3days..The culprit is the spitting forest cobra. They also try to enter peoples home.

that's a king cobra. one of the most venomous snakes in the world. the flattened neck region and distinct skin patterns clearly show this.

Given that it can swim, it seems Very likely that that snake will be poisonous.
