Despite the fear which the Monkey Pox virus has instilled in
some Nigerians especially those in the affected regions such as Bayelsa, Akwa
Ibom and Rivers states, a Port-Harcourt based man identified as Vure Kingsley,
seems not to be deterred as he killed and cooked some monkeys which he used in
preparing pepper soup. According to him, the meal was eaten with a local herbal
concoction known as Monkey tail.
Below is what he shared on Facebook;
"Commissioner Of Misinformation Disapproves Government
Propaganda On Monkeypox, People Should Go About Eating Monkey I'm Cooking
Already. Boil To Temperature Of 100Degrees. Use Monkey tail Kaikai To Step Down
The Peppersoup."
Let's ignore the monkeypox angle for now;
How do people bring themselves to slaughter and eat monkeys?
In the theory of evolution, they are our cousins.
Truth be told, when roasted with the body hairs all gone, monkeys look like human toddlers.
How do you eat the relatable head, hands and feet?
*Shudders*
