A traveler passing through O'Hare International Airport was caught in a shocking moment when a customs dog alerted officials to something suspicious in her luggage—only for them to discover meat infested with maggots.

Although the incident occurred on May 30, 2024, an American woman recently reposted the clip on X (formerly Twitter), reigniting online discussions and humorous reactions. The video shows a beagle sniffing out a suitcase, prompting customs agents to inspect the bag. Upon opening it, they found ziplocked bags of meat crawling with live maggots.

A customs officer, seen sorting through two suitcases beside the luggage conveyor belt, reacts in shock as she uncovers the contraband. Multiple bags of meat, along with writhing maggots, are clearly visible.

Briana Mary, who shared the video, claimed the meat was "raw African bushmeat" that had been sitting in the suitcase for over 30 hours following a flight from Africa, with a layover in Amsterdam. She questioned, "How did this make it through two different airports to reach O'Hare?"

In the video’s caption, she wrote: "The hound had alerted to the baggage before it even hit the conveyor belt—it went absolutely nuts. As soon as the luggage hit the belt, the dog started ripping at the plastic wrap."

Following the incident, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) was reportedly contacted. Bushmeat is illegal to bring into the U.S. due to the potential health risks it poses.

In a statement to Newsweek, the CDC explained, "Multiple federal agencies prohibit the importation of bushmeat and other meats. CDC prohibits bushmeat if it appears to be from a CDC-regulated animal (one that can transmit disease to humans) or if it cannot be identified." The agency clarified that, in this case, the meat seemed to come from a non-CDC-regulated animal, so U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) handled the situation.

Bushmeat refers to raw or minimally processed meat from wild animals—such as antelope or primates—found in certain regions of the world. It may carry significant disease risks.

Interestingly, many Americans who saw the video were unfamiliar with the term bushmeat, leading to a mix of amusing and misinformed reactions. Some assumed it exclusively referred to monkey meat, with one user humorously stating, "It's monkey meat." This sparked further debate, as many people wrongly concluded that all Africans consume monkey meat.

This kind of misinformation highlights the importance of awareness when traveling. Africans, particularly Nigerians, must be mindful of what is and isn’t permitted in foreign countries to avoid situations where misleading narratives can arise.

Now it’s obvious the entire southwest Yoruba is under panic as it’s comes ..
Atiku gave Baba buhari a run for his cult followership in the north .. and buhari nearly escape with a 1.8 million vote after rigging ..

Atiku gave Tinubu a hot in north .. and in south.. plus Tinubu rigging plus minus .. Tinubu lost figures ..

That was how they set kwankwaso up in North that he’s a giant .. he lost and lost beautifully

Saraki knows his onion and also knows too well he can venture into a politcal turf against Atiku..

GEJ would have tried .. but right now .. he don’t have the muscle to pull it .. South might be loyal.. but what about Arewa
Tinubu must go.. obi is the figure that ought to align with Atiku.. same same ..
Te em Tinubu will congratulate them before inec start.

Wike can pay any human.. to talk gibberish.. let him keep trying .. but the harder the come .. the harder the fall

If Atiku is the only political figure to give buhari a run .. no other northerner can pull that .. and this the North knows very very too well

Primate Abi Wetin the call am . The politcal bishop with lots of a failed prophecies is on his own and cannot gaslight anyone ..

Tinubu and his Yoruba government is truly feeling the heat .. event never even start and it’s like this .. make November reach he will release another story

God bless Nigerians

The burning of Tinubu bill board in the North really send a big message to Tinubu and his minions

Them go hear word

For those saying Tinubu is not GEJ.. I laugh in Yoruba ..

E go soon be ..

Nigerians has rejected Tinubu.. even the gods has rejected him
GEJ too had hoped till e clear


E go olay

Leobankx:
Well Atiku knows this already but pride will not allow him to step down for someone else and the PDP will keep selling the ticket to him.

Jonathan will not contest the Presidency again, he said that he has achieved everything in life and that there's nothing he needs again, even his wife, our amiable Mama Peace laughed it off some months ago saying his husband won't contest.

A 36-year-old man named Joshua has taken to social media to announce his search for a partner, and his candid list of requirements has gone viral, igniting intense reactions online.

In his post, Joshua, who describes himself as single and financially stable, outlines a list of specific conditions that his potential partner must meet. The requirements, which range from physical attributes to lifestyle expectations, have drawn criticism for their stringent and, in some cases, controversial nature.

Joshua’s post reads:

"Hi, my name is Joshua.
Age: 36y/o Status: Single
Genotype: AA
Blood group: O+

Choice of partner:

(1) Must be a VIRGIN
(2) Not older than 24
(3) Must be doing well for herself financially
(4) Dark skin is preferred
(5) Money is not a problem for me.

Note: I don't like FAT girls."

The post has caused a stir, with many criticizing his narrow view on relationships, especially the insistence on his partner being a virgin and under a specific age. Others have expressed concerns over the body-shaming comment, particularly his dislike of "fat girls."

Elon is one of the biggest fools in the American society. He likes attention so much and likes to make everything about himself.

I suspect the recent land issue Trump is having against South Africa was triggered by Elon Musk due to his South African roots. They basically want white people to keep controlling the country...

Anyways, I am not sorry for South African blacks, they know how to attack their fellow Africans, some don't even see themselves as Africans, so let them face the US or bow to white supremacy in their own country.

Nigerian Patient Tries to Woo Indian Nurse.

A video has surfaced online showing a sick Nigerian man trying to get the attention of an Indian nurse treating him, sparking mixed reactions.

In the video, the man is heard repeatedly boasting about how well-endowed Africans are, while the calm nurse responds, saying she doesn’t like Africans. The man then tells the nurse that Indians are not good. In response, the nurse points out that an Indian is the one treating him, to which he replies that Indians are good at treating illnesses but not in bed. He goes on to say that while Indians have two legs, Africans have three, even inviting the nurse to visit him at night so he could prove what Africans are made of.

This interaction has sparked diverse opinions—some believe the man should have focused on recovering from his illness rather than attempting to woo the nurse treating him.

A shocking video of a woman brazenly vandalizing her husband’s car while defiantly asserting her authority as his wife has gone viral, sparking heated reactions online.

What led to her outburst is not immediately known, but in the now-trending clip, the enraged wife can be seen smashing the vehicle while her husband watches helplessly. As observers express disbelief, she boldly declares, “I am your wife, and I am the one destroying it.” Her unapologetic stance has since ignited intense debates across social media.

While some netizens have called for her immediate arrest, others advised the husband to take legal and traditional action. “No need to stress yourself. After the video, invite her people to see the damage, let them pay for it, then carry their useless daughter to their house. File for divorce and move on with your life. Simple,” one comment read.

Another user expressed concern over the growing trend of aggressive behavior among women in Nigeria, stating, “One thing that shocked me in Nigeria was that the women are more aggressive than the men. I've seen this same thing happen in Ghana as well, but the rate at which women overpower men in Nigeria is overwhelming. I really thought Naija men were hardcore until I met the women.”
