What an health hazard to roast a goat with tyre! Nigerians need to be careful with what they consume.

Werelity

Poverty dey plenty across the whole of Nigeria na. Arguing over which state is better than another is like arguing over whether dying of a heart attack is better than dying from a shark attack. All na wahala

This is higly shameful and despicable, the holiday should be a time to laugh, joke, forgive and what not. Shouldn't the 24yo (11yrs older) have know better? Some Nigerians are heartless when it comes to money and food, God will deliver his people out of the hands of the wicked.

This news piece is funny, though erroneous. The mumu reporter mis-titled the article because the stated reason for the wahala wasn't the goat itself, but who owns the old tire used to roast the goat. This is very unfortunate.

By the way, those who are attacking a certain ethnicity here are not wise because poverty and ignorance in this nation know no tribe, religion and ethnicity, so the joke is on you people.
