days after Eid-El-Kabri festival.

According to him, it has been a while he started
monitoring the snake after he has been informed by the
people of Mubo Street.

When he saw the snake for the first time in that river, it
ran away and it is too dangerous for him to go after it,
so he left it that day.

He noted that when he arrived at Mubo river early
Yesterday morning, he found that the python has
swallowed a pig. This according to him however ease
his attack.

Jimo who said that he killed the snake with mere

Pythons are relatively easy to kill, so its no major achievement, kill a cobra or a mamba before showing off; Fast moving snakes that will actually fight back..

Pythons are quite easily to catch alive self!.
