Based: The environment isn't always to blame for snakes in the house. Rat/mouse most times find their way into homes, the snake might be after food too, the rat. |

Nodogragra4me: Funny thing is venom is precious to snakes and they use it when necessary. So often times they bite without injecting venom, so called "dry bite" which the victim survives and the local healers often times falsely or inaccurately attribute to their charms. Dry bites can occur when the snake is startled. However, when the snake is cornered and it feels its life is in danger or it needs to feed, it is likely to inject venom. For a snake this size, it would be in copious amounts that can kill very quickly. Imagine meeting this "long John" in the kitchen, you at the doorway and it in a corner desperate to escape... Omo.... |

Earthbound: A snake entered someone's room ,and lots of bitter kola were thrown into the room to make the snake leave....We waited for hours, and nothing happened(snake was busy chilling)... Last last, someone had to go into the room to kill it. |

CosmeticChemist: ^^^ It is not a king cobra. It looks more like a forest cobra as others have said. King cobras are not native to Africa. They are also far larger and longer (up to 5 metres!) than forest cobras. |

strungcity: ^^^ It isn't a king cobra. It looks like a forest cobra as other posters have pointed out. King cobras are rarely melanistic. Fully grown king cobras are also much longer and larger than forest cobras. Specimens in the wild have been known to grow up to 5 metres long. |

Lisaflex: kings r not Black! they are brownish with yellow belly..... plus the whiteman believed Kings are only found in Asia ( mainly India and Indochina settlements)... which i highly debate because Nigeria has so many variety of wild animals that the whites don't know about because they don't investigate or document our wild.... |

Lisaflex: Maybe the bitter kola stopped it from coming out of its hiding place. I just don't pray for an encounter. When I make enough money, I'll just relocate to a colder climate where I don't have to worry about snakes |

That's a king cobra. Venomous and deadly. Never knew we had these in Africa. |
