One cannot but wonder why anyone in his/her right thinking mind, walk into the procession of Lions. It was not too long ago, that a man was eaten alive while daring a lion in a Zoo in Ibadan. Now you see this young man walking and holding a Lion by the tail and interestingly, it was not only him but also a couple of other folks at the Protea Hotel, Limpopo where the movie, “The Ghost and the Darkness”, was shot!!!
What do you think?
