Where ever animal caught in the loose is food. bush meat specifically
Where wildlife is never valued or preserved.

Many will pay money to come see this beautiful creature in a game reserve, even a makeshift one, but my people prefer to "chop today, forget tomorrow". So many beautiful creatures that most of us (myself inclusive) only see on tv end up on nairaland frontpage as bush meat/pepper soup. Having a few more of these special beautiful creatures confined in a reserve will gain some people of that state jobs, attract tourists(even if its only local ones) to the state, development and more employment opportunities, and ultimately, secure some people's future by putting money in their pockets. But for here? Mba nu, lets eat and live today, tomorrow will think for itself. God help my country Nigeria...

It seems you did not get the point. I really don't know what you mean by bush meat.? If you mean grasscutters, guinea fowl, rabbits etc, they are animals that can be reared and are in fact are in large numbers compared to the likes of Hippo's.

Check your facts well, there is an international treaty on hunting of whales.(So the numbers and type the japanse hunt are actually limited).

napoleon77:
Is there a justification for killing lions, buffaloes etc?

Is killing a hippopotamus for food illegal?

Nigerians eat cattle. Fine. But the story also shows that some Nigerians eat hippopotamus. Is that illegal?

Hippopotamus are not rare. There are just not as popular as cattle

MrOreo:
Remedy?? There's no remedy for such.
I remember when the flu hit birds back then, people where still eating them, tho it was deep fried but people still slaughtered them to eat.
End time people

ediama:
an average black man thinks only of food. less than two days from now all will be forgotten. No history and nothing educating for our children.

Kill and share mentality has eaten deep into us.

we share everything. contract money, electoral money, development levy, name it.

The sudden slide of the US dollar and other foreign currencies has made export to neighbouring countries such as Niger Republic, Burkina Faso and Chad unattractive, traders have said.

Visits to Tsohuwar Kasuwa and other markets in Sokoto recently revealed that the number of trucks that load goods to Niger and Burkina Faso on daily basis has dropped drastically from about 20 to about five trucks.

Merchants from the neighbouring countries had taken advantage of the depreciation of the naira in recent times to ship more goods out of the country with little amount of their currencies, especially the CFA.

Local traders who spoke to our reporter said merchants from neighbouring countries no longer found it attractive to exchange a CFA at N62 to do business in Nigeria even as the price of the goods still remained high at their markets.

Alhaji Usman Salihu Mai Sugar, told our reporter that patronage by the merchants dropped since last week when the naira began to appreciate, adding “Before now there was hardly space here, even to pass was difficult.”

He said some of the reasons why the export business has gotten less attractive was “Because we are still selling the old stocks in the market; the appreciation of naira is yet to bring down prices in the market.”
Ismaila Illela said some of his customers at Niger told him they were studying the market for now before returning to Nigeria.

Also, some traders in Kano said there is a sharp dropped in patronage by merchants from Niger Republic as well as Chad
“About 20 to 30 trucks fully loaded usually leave Kano every evening before the appreciation of the naira but the number of trucks has reduced minimally as of last week,” a trader, Shuaibu Rijiyar Lemo, told our reporter recently.

The naira appreciated by about 20 percent since February 21 after the Central Bank of Nigeria released some new rules on the forex market.
Some Nigerians expressed joy over the naira appreciation hoping that things would get better in the nearest future.

Meanwhile, Nigerians have expressed joy over as the naira appreciated, saying that no one was happy with the high rate of inflation in the country due to forex scarcity.

According to Alhaji Salihu, “No one was happy with the high cost of materials in the market, even us the traders, we are not making much gain as speculated, we spend a lot to buy few goods.”

The naira jumped by about 18 percent at the parallel market - from N520 on February 23, to N425 a dollar Wednesday. However, some reports said the local currency closed the week at about 465 a dollar.
