A graduate of zoology from a Nigerian university
was
having difficulty in finding a job. He saw an
advert in
one of the daily newspaper for a job at a zoo. In
the
interview, the manager told him that their gorilla
which had been tourists' attraction had died so
they
needed someone to dress up and pretend to be
like
a gorilla. The graduate was embarrassed, but
since
the salary was ok, he accepted the job. The first
day,
he put on the gorilla skin and entered the cage,
he
started jumping up and down, beating his chest
and
roaring like a gorilla. The next day, he put on the
gorilla skin and started moving around the zoo
again
and mistakenly entered another cage where he
found
himself staring at a lion. The lion roared and
rushed
towards him. The scared graduate quickly forgot
that
he was a gorilla and started shouting like a
human,
"Help! Help!" The lion leaped on him, knocked
him to
the ground and whispered in his ear, " # FEMI,
it's me
# DAYO, your course mate. Shut up or we'll both
lose
our jobs."s
