Man shoots son dead in failed ‘bullet proof’ charm test

By PETER DURU

In a bid to test the potency of his newly acquired bullet proof ‘juju’, a man, Ornguga Adega, of Agbatse village in Kwande local government area of Benue State, shot his only son dead  while conducting a gunshot test on the boy.

Sunday Vanguard gathered that the suspect, who was  immediately apprehended by men of the Benue State Police Command, is currently facing trial at a Makurdi Chief Magistrate Court.

According to the First Information Report, FIR, by the police, the suspect and father of the ten- year- old had, in August 2012, bought some charm from a native doctor with the belief that it was potent enough to prevent the penetration of bullets into his body.

He was said to have rubbed his ‘bullet proof’ cream on the body of his son in order to verify  its efficacy and potency in line with the instructions of the native doctor from whom he bought the charm.

According to the FIR,  Adega fired a shot with his single barrel gun on the right leg of his son following which the bullet shattered the leg and also penetrated through to the left leg.

The boy was said to have bled profusely but before his shocked and devastated father could get proper medical attention for him, the little boy bled to death.

When the case came up at the Makurdi Chief Magistrate Court, police prosecutor, Inspector Gabriel Egbonyi, said the accused was arrested at the process of investigating the cause of death of the young boy.

Egbonyi further told the court that the accused confessed to committing the crime and also acknowledged responsibility for the unfortunate incident which prompted further police  investigation into the matter.

Meanwhile no plea was taken for want of jurisdiction. However the prosecution said investigation was still in progress in the matter and asked for another date for hearing.

The Chief Magistrate, Mr Dan Ogoh, ordered that the accused be remanded in prison custody and adjourned the case to 12 September

hoodboy: funny how this thread is no longer on the front-page. didnt know it was actually possible to yank a page off the front page being that some tribally debased thread have been left to remain on front page despite how offensive a lot of nairalanders find such threads.

Seun could not take the heat anymore! Victory to all my Garri advocates! If Seun get liva let him bring back this thread to the front page! And by the time we start our invasion, threads will be derailed and deleted by seun and his mods from the front page constantly!

We are still open for talks seun!

Whole cassava tubers
Peeled cassava pieces

Garri (also known as gari, garry, or tapioca) is a popular West African food made from cassava tubers. The spelling 'garri' is mainly used in Nigeria, Cameroon, Sierra Leone and 'gari' in Ghana.[1]

Process

To make garri, cassava tubers are peeled, washed and grated or crushed to produce a mash. The mash is placed in a porous bag and allowed to ferment for one or two days, while weights are placed on the bag to press the water out. It is then sieved (or sifted) and roasted by heating in a bowl. The resulting dry granular garri can be stored for long periods. It may be pounded or ground to make a fine flour.

Eba is a stiff dough made by soaking gari in hot water and kneading it with a flat wooden baton. Kokoro is a common snack food in Nigeria made from a paste of maize flour mixed with gari and sugar and deep-fried.[2]

Garri comes in various consistencies, which can roughly be categorized into: rough, medium and smooth. Each type is used for a particular meal.

As a snack or light meal, garri can be soaked in cold water (in which case it settles to the bottom), mixed with sugar and sometimes roasted peanut, with evaporated milk sometimes added. The amount of water needed for soaked garri is 3:1. Garri can also be eaten dry without water, but with sugar and roasted peanut added.

In its dry form, garri is also a nice accompaniment for soft cooked beans and palm oil. This food mix is called Yor ke Garri in the Ga language, in Ghana. This food is usually eaten with fried plantain, commonly known as kokor. The combo is a common meal for lunch.

For a full meal, garri is usually cooked by adding to hot water and kneaded into dough. This is usually eaten with different types of stew or soup with vegetables added (plain tomato/pepper soups with vegetables such as okra added, thick, leafy vegetable stews, melon seed stews, peanut stews etc.).

Smooth garri (known as lebu to the Yoruba) can also be mixed with pepper and other spicy ingredients. A small amount of warm water and palm oil is added and mixed with the hand to soften up. This type of garri is served with fried fish. It is also served with frejon on Good Friday.
Variations

In West Africa, there are two types; "white" and "yellow" garri. The yellow garri is prepared by frying with the addition of palm oil to give it a yellow colour; while white garri is fried without palm oil. In the Western parts of Africa, yellow garri is more sought after; hence it is more expensive than the white flavour.[citation needed]

Yellow and white garri are very common all over Nigeria. A variation of white garri exists, popularly known as Ijebu-garri. This variation is produced mainly by Yourubas of Ijebu origin, in Nigeria. A great many variations exist of both white and yellow garri.

In Ghana, garri is judged by its taste and grain size. The sweeter types with finer grains are more valued over sour, large grain varieties. Commercial food vendors on the other hand prefer, coarser grains with high starch content as this yields more quantity when soaked in water. In addition, buyers often look out for crispier grains when trying to determine its freshness.

Garri can be eaten without further cooking by placing in a bowl and adding cold water; Ijebu-garri is made to have finer grains, and a pleasantly sour taste, making it very suitable for consumption in this way. Sugar or honey is sometimes added to sweeten the taste. It can also be converted into a breakfast cereal by adding powdered milk, chunks of coconut, groundnuts and cashew nuts. Most garri, however, is cooked by adding to boiling water and stirring to make a stiff paste or porridge, which among the Igbos is known as utara, and among Yorubas as eba. Utara (or eba) is normally eaten with soups, of which different kinds are available. Garri produced in the east, south-east, and middle belt Nigeria are usually of coarser texture and bland in taste. As such, many people prefer to use this type for cooking as a dough to eat with stews (as it does not change the taste of the stew). Most parts of Africa where cassava is grown have an equivalent staple dish.

Seun has not learned his lesson! Can u imagine ''ga**i'' word being censored on sites like facebook, twitter and the rest? Y must it be NL? Where is the freedom of speech? Its very inhumane!
Garri has come to stay and it'll take a lot of work, not just banning to contain the revolution!

Like I've suggested we need a section totally dedicated to ga**i... At least that can somehow have an impact on the price in the market!

I want Nairalanders to share their views on how this question has become an offensive statement on threads. I started the campaign and I have served my numerous bans. Am sorry if I offended anyone. Please mods, let the people be the judge on this issue. Is it wrong to ask about the price of garri?

Yes, please,

It's wrong to ask about the price of garri on a thread that has nothing to do with garri. Doing so will earn you a ban.

Thanks for your kind cooperation.

Seun: You will not be banned for posting about garri on this garri thread.

Mr seun, as president of the garri movement on nairaland I have given u our demands and recomendations! We need a garri section so at least we can av a cause to smile whenever we come on NL.

Ps: if u don't ban urself for mentioning garri like u banned me, it would be injustice! Seun,seun,seun,seun,seun,seun,seun,seun,seun,seun,seun,seun,,, hope ur reading this!
