He should be buried immediately bc the snake venom will digest him inside out. What a stupid decision not to rush him to the hospital immediately
Rushing him to the hospital doesnt mean he will survive
Anti venom is usually not available most times
U will need the venom of the snake to make one

Animal activists, shey una see why we dey kill snake anytime we come across them. these creatures are dangerous, once they trespass to your territory, kill them!! Don't listen to any nonsense animal activists.
But snakes don't go about biting people. They only bite in self defence when you first attack them

What happened to going to a proper hospital.......

He died because he is a Nigerian and lived in a country with weak health system.

He wouldn't have died if he was a South African or lives there.

When I watch NatGeo wide! I see how dogs are treated of snakes bite talk more of humans.

Our life expectancy in this part of the world is indeed low.

Don't blame those migrating out of Nigeria to Canada and other countries.

Security of life, high life expectancy, good medical care and assured future are the motivation.

Rest In Peace young man. Your nation failed you.

Snake cases are most times deadly
No clear help

This is a lie
Even in south Africa u will die if they dont have the anti venom
Snake bites are dangerous anywhere in the world if the sample of the venom is not available to have the anti venom ready

Leave Nigeria out of it

That's how you identify Ipobs.......what else do you expect undecided
Someone just passed on as a result of snake bite and all your feeble mind can conceive is insults and no single sympathy. If you had not spoken, you would have been classified as wise.

They should have tied the hand and cut it off to avoid spreading. Better to lose a hand than life. We need to be proactive in this country. Too many weak brains here.

Metrixnews:
A middle aged man, Chidiebere Christopher Nwoke has lost his life after a dangerous snake bit him during bush clearing in Umuahia, the Abia State capital.

The late Mr Nwoke is a native of Umueke Ekerifeze Umuajata Olokoro in Umuahia south local government area of Abia state.

ABN TV gathered that this development has put the people of the community in a state of mourning as the young man was said to be full of life and hard working.

Our correspondent gathered that late Nwoke had gone to farm alongside his younger brother when the tragic incident happened.
He said Nwoke unknowingly inflicted a machete cut on a dangerous viper snake known as “AJUALA”.

In an effort to gather the cleared bush with his hands, the snake bit him on his left hand which resulted to the swelling of the hand.

However, he was rushed to an anti poison native doctor who gave him some herbal drugs to stabilize him.

He later passed on and has since been deposited in the mortuary.

This viper is called "Echi Eteka" in Nsukka dialect. Meaning "Tomorrow is far"

Once this snake bite someone, if you don't start immediately to take anti-snake venom, you won't see tomorrow.


RIP to the young man.

All that grammar just because you watched NatGeo?
