Jos was an old mining town (tin), during the time, as a colony under Britian. You can see scars of this time along the landscape, where they mined the tin, and the remains of what use to be a railroad during this time, crisscrossing the topography. Some of the old cars, and trains remain, now in the museum in Jos. Nigeria gained its full independence from Britain in 1960. (This in part, also explains why English is the official language in Nigeria.)
Hey snake, wake up, don't you know supper just came crawling over to you? (Python at the zoo)
The zoo keeper lets in children to sell peanuts and some children beggars - so everytime we went to another animal place, the children would ask for money... we didn't stay too long, it didn't make taking a tour of the place all that easy. These girls are watching my friend Gloria feed the monkeys their peanuts...
