That's a Naija Turtle not a Ninja Turtle!

those legs i see wearing two left sides of bathroom slippers won't even think twice about eating that poor thing even if it was poisonous. . .

I don tire for my kontrymen I swear. That turtle right there is a treasure. You see a turtle that's probably older than your great grandfather and all you can think of is peppersoup.

Bo-large:
PLS DO NOT KILL HIM OOOOOOOOOH! NA MY COUSIN OOOOOOOOH!

HE CAME FOR MY NAMING CEREMONY AND THANKS GIVEN FOR SUNDAY.

I BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEG OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!

eeeeyyaaaa! too late bro. RIP to ya cousin. When is the funeral service?

Obe de!

I hope they freed the poor animal.

The appropriate agencies should attend to this. That is a giant turtle and is an endangered species. I hope it still alive. Hopeless dark hearted nigerians! *spits*

maclatunji:

They've already tied it's flippers, this one looks like pepper soup tonight. God knows how much a plate would go for. I don't know if we have laws protecting this animal but if not, let those who want it eat it.

Get used to it!

mac, what if they take it to the zoo, is that not a good thing?

GARRI~ WARLORD:

Rubbish..absolute rubbish.. So you think before the whites came to africa,there was no traditional medicine in africa.. Ask yourself why many people are now embracing traditional medicines as opposed to mordern ones.. So you think an african brain is just dumb and thinks nothing but food abi.. Do you know how many local medicine men/doctors in naija who have discovered the cure for "aids" which was created by ur almighty white man to make money...
Stop worshipping the people who planned all our problems.. If you worship the whites as your god,keep it to yourself.Dont come here and say rubbish...
The i..diot who brainwashed you did a good job,cos i can see the damage is irreversible....

Nice one. . .Nailed it!!

tlops: Obe de!

I hope they freed the poor animal.

tlope na question be that?, them go don chop the poor animal since morning, just forget it. Its gone

If this was the last sea turtle on the surface of the earth, Nigerians will still eat it.

ehie: Mr,the whitemen may have exploited us i agree,but what the whiteman doe not understand,he studies,
what the African does not understand he throws always,no self control in its place instant gratification...

did the native doctors have a cure for elephantiasis in the olden days?
yes they had herbs but it was mainly by fluke that they got their cures,secondly before you went from your village to another village what did you use,didnt you trek,didnt it take days and days,now you can go by air and road,if the whitemen had been africans we would still be wearing leaves up and down,

young lady what are you saying?? These white ppl are d largest killers of wildlife. . .and i mean ever!! All these civilisation u are on about will soon be our doom. . .do u know how many turtles and and animals have been killed world-wide due to climate change?? And don't ever think that the animals they research on don't die,d population of sharks reduced last year by well over 2million due 2 'reasearch and study' and hunting for food by these sae white ppl(National geographic) . . .trust me,the white man has done more damage to this worldthan Good,u don't do things that contradict d set of nature and hope 2 live forever,one thing white ppl think they can do,it doesnt work that way

tevinsolt: damn Nigerians they'll eat just about anything they see smh........they should let it go
maybe that's why we can't even boast of an amazing wild life in this country like fathers like sons

av u ever been to the yankari?? Even some whites cannot boast of that

Sometimes "daily bread" come as turtles

Wey the tomatoes and pepper?

holums: Dis turtle should be taken to d zoo.......but many Nigerians
are hungry citizens I'm sure they would av eaten it.....it is only
in Africa that we don't value d lives of animals

i'v been waiting for sometin like this!! AFRICA is by far!!! By far!!! I mean with sometin like a 50million(animals) margin the largest home of wild-life,with serengeti(tanzania-kenya) as d largest park in d world,watch more of National geographic,most of their shows are either in set kenya/tanzania/south africa or other parts in afriq. . .no one preseves wild-life more than africa man!!

but if one animal con dey form strong-head,swim reach where my brothers-in slippers dey,heheh

See better meat oooHHH!!! This will go down well with palm wine.

BY all means necessary This hand made of God must be returned unharmed and intact to the sea.

If you can't reproduce it don't eat it. Not all that looks like food should be taken as food.

Some guys here r talking about keeping it 4 research purpose.The only research naija people can very well, is to know weather the meat make sence or not inside our mouth. Which every one already knows the result. RIP poor turtle wey waka miss.

Giant sea turtle,whale... sharks wat nx

!!coughs!! bro don't get me wrong, but what do you mean by the bolded

i'm sure you eat chicken, does that mean you can reproduce it

Wow, its huge.

Are turtles normally found in oniru beach, or did this one miss its way.

omoredia: The appropriate agencies should attend to this. That is a giant turtle and is an endangered species. I hope it still alive. Hopeless dark hearted nigerians! *spits*

Over a turtle?

Why cursing out nigerians, gosh.

Kakatazz: Please they should either let it go or take it to the oba's place and preserve it for tourism.

Well, they can do that.

They should leave it alone/take it to a zoo, not kill and eat it!

pyyxxaro:

Nooooo ? THEY RAPE IT

Please!!! You don't MOLESTATION something. You MOLEST it. You are supposed to use a verb, an action word. Please take note. I am tired of seeing such usage on nairaland already!!!

Oh! Poor turtle. 4 naija here,they either eat am or use am do juju. Naija no de carry last 4 dat one

Teenaba:

I think the guy is just joking!its obvious na

blessedghost:

Actually, the correct thing to do is to check what the problem with it is in terms of its health. If it is healthy return it back to the sea.

However, I can't blame hungry Nigerians for pouncing on it for food as long as they haven't broken any law. We cannot always agree now.

when a rare occur of turtle washing up to shore,it is there to lay eggs and i hope this turtle was able to lay eggs before it was tied up..otherwise the turtles will be no more/extinct...In my home state,it is illegal to even touch a turtle and after many years of that law,we see turtles every day,everywhere and they swim among people as if nothing to fear...

ehie: am sure it has been killed and eaten,
Nigerians are gluttons if na oyibo,they would keep it for research,but Nigerians will just eat it.

How sure are you that it has been eaten, or you just want to say something silly.

I guess it must have been eaten by now, but if by fortune it is still alive they should please take it to a zoo, and pay-off the guy who caught it.

The Senate Presido: ''Those in support of eating this scintillating,exotic and delicious bushmeat of the sea, say Aye! Those against, say Nay! The Ayes have it. Please, pepperise the chest and liver,to go along with 3 bottles of stout, for the Senate Presido. Yes! We are working, our piggy bank,ehm,sorry,our Nigeria no go break.Ko ma lo beeee...
