There was this Nigeria man, an engineer in an American company here in Nigeria. He was an expert in his field. He understands the language of engines. No any faulty mechanical device or engine that he can't repair.
The Managing director of the company was so fond of him and so when the company was relocating back to America, he took him along.
They arrived America at night. The director had to book him in one of the best hotels in America. He would stay in this hotel for a month before he would resume work.
The next morning after taking his bath, they brought his breakfast which consisted of seven slices of bread, a cup of coffee and four slices of roasted meat. In the afternoon, they gave him fried macaroni with eggs. In the evening, they brought fried rice and beans with four slices of baked meat.
They continued to feed him with these food daily. They also give him wine and can malt with sandwich.
Four days later, the hotel authorities observed that he hasn't gone to toilet all this while. They then asked him why. He told that reason was because he had never eaten since he came to America. The hotel authorities were surprised because they always give him food.
After about a week and he hasn't still emptied his bowels, they called the managing director who brought him there. When he came, he brought a doctor to examine him and they found out that his stomach was empty! The director became really angry with the hotel's management. He then asked them to give him food in his present.
They gave him seven slices of bread, six slices of meat with a cup of coffee which he emptied in less than a minute!
The director then said, "yes, he had eaten now, just watch how he would empty his bowels today". He then left. Still, he didn't empty his bowels and the authorities became worried and they called the director again.
He asked him why haven't he emptied his bowels for the past two weeks plus. He said that he had never eaten any food.
They asked him to eat whatever things that he wanted.
He then asked them to show him where to get ripe palm fruits. They took him to a certain garden and he cut down about twenty bunches of palm fruits ( BANGA ) The people were amazed on what he would do with them. They said, " ah! You gaddem Africa man, what a hell do you think you are doing to the flowers? "
He also asked them to show him any river. They took him to a very big resort beach with giant sea animals. He was very happy. He got a cutlass and killed a big shark. The people were mad at him and they say, "ah! You nigger, what a hell do you think you are doing? That shark is worth over a million dollar. People come to see them as part of our tourism".
He took cutlass and cut it into pieces and put it in different big freezers in the hotel. He went into people's gardens and cut down bunches of plantains which they used as flowers, harvested yams and uprooted cassavas.
He started to cook banga soup, melon soup, owho soup, make starch and eba. He began to eat like no Man's business. In less than a month, the toilet septic tank had filled and they brought a sewage truck and emptied it. He also went into a government reserve and shot an elephant dead. He butchered it into different freezers and he began to use it to cook weekly. And he told them that it was now that he had eaten what is called food in Africa.
The authorities then reason that if they don't repatriate him back, all the elephants, lions, giraffes and buffalos and tigers will extinct together with the whales, sharks, dolphins, hippopotamuses, crocodiles and alligators.
