Man Shot Himself Trying To Pluck A Mango by Jroy(m): 10:24pm On Apr 16, 2010
26-year-old man, Olajide
Ojo, who chose to pluck
mangoes with a dane gun,
has died of gunshot injuries.
Ms Olabisi Okuwobi,
spokeswoman of the Oyo State
Police Command, told newsmen in
Ibadan yesterday that the
tragedy occurred on April 3 on
his father ’s farm at Ilora, near
Oyo.
Okuwubi said the police were
investigating the incident as it
was not clear if Ojo was killed
by an accidental discharge from
the gun.
“The father of the deceased
stated that his son mistakenly
shot himself as he was trying to
pluck a mango, ’’ she said.
Okuwobi said detectives had
visited the farm and recovered
the dane gun. Ojo ’s remains,
according to Okuwobi, had been
deposited at the General
Hospital, Oyo for autopsy.

this shouldn't be funny, but what on earth was he thinking?! i bet he told his parents he wanted to go hunt animals with the gun, only for him to decide the mangoes had more appeal. i just feel bad for his folks.

It was a cultural issue a taboo to the gods, una know all those ifa, ogun etc
Dem say for that side dem they forbid to use gun pluck mango, d gods think say him come shoot dem na him dem shoot am first in reverse order.
This is not funny oh, house beware only use stones and sticks to pluck fruits. Dont even use ur shoes or clothes make d gods no mistake u for enemy.
The gods are not to blame. culture na culture.
