You meant Ika dialect because Ika people speak igbo language even though some of them deny their igbo origin.

I was just stepping out of My House when I saw it.
What is the name ?
Someone told me that it's called Puff
Adder.
You said you killed a snake and its head is still intact. You did not cut off the head neither did you crush or burn it. What kind of person are you

This snake is a puff adder

This is a very venomous and dangerous snake native to much of Africa and portions of Saudi Arabia. Studies have shown that more than 50% of severe envenomations left untreated result in death. Envenomation may cause severe hypotension/shock as well as hemolytic, coagulopathic, hemorrhagic, and local reactions.

Puff Adder (Bitis arietans)
toxicology dot ucsd dot edu

Op seems you stay close to an area where there are bushes and host of rodents stay nearby..!
Try to fumigate the area once in a month or make use of wasted diesel products and pour around the compound!

Looks too small to be a puff adder. Its more likely a Gaboon Viper. Na them be the "Big Boyz" in the viper family in this part of the world.
Puff adder's are usually small gabon viper are bigger and more identified with their heads. This is too narrow to be a gabon viper.

It's doesn't even look like any type of viper.

You just avoided certain death. If that thing had sunk it's fangs into you, you would have certainly gone too soon. Its an adder.

SEGLIZ:

you don't like I do.
in short I hate reptiles generally, any kind of reptile I mean any - lizard, salamander, frog, snake etc.
please quickly remove frog and salamander before your child will see this and be thinking you must be skipping Biology classes in your secondary

Frog and salamander are under Amphibians not reptiles

That head houses the longest fangs in the snake kingdom..it’s not that it’s venom is the most potent but that it delivers it so deep into the body that it starts it’s tissue destruction quickly.
