How do they know the exact age?

Its dated back to the king that started the tradition of keeping the animal. And there has never been any reported death of the creature.

When we tell them that the Yorubas' civilization & existence is as old as the existence of Man, they(flat.ties) cringe & call them brown roof. Your forefathers were still living in thatched roofs when the Yorubas were using corrugated sheets.
Truth is mine!

Sard:

You probably don't live around Oyo state, if you do, you must have heard of the tortoise. There's no hidden agenda or new story about it. The story about it has been passed down from generation to generation.
Besides, tortoises are known to live for more than 500 years, so this tortoise hasn't done anything "special".

didn't know that tortoise live that long
