A pataki of Ejiogbe-Idi

THE CAMOUFLAGE.

THERE WERE THREE HUNTERS WHO ALWAYS WENT OUT TOGETHER, BUT THEY HUNTED VERY LITTLE,
AND SMALL PIECES. THEY USED SHOTGUNS TO HUNT WHILE OGBE DI, HUNTED WITH AKOFA AND
HUNTED A LOT, FOR WHICH THE OTHER HUNTERS WERE ENVY OF HIM.

IN FRONT OF THE ILE DE OGBE DI, THERE WAS A VERY FLOPPY BRUSH, AND A NEIGHBOR HAD ASKED
HIM FOR PERMISSION TO PICK SOME SEGMENTS, BUT HE Plucked MANY AND COULD NOT TAKE THEM
ALL AT ONCE, AND THE NEXT DAY HE CAME WITH A CARTOON AND DIDN'T THEY COULD NOT TAKE THEM
EITHER, AND THAT'S WHY THE ILE DE OGBE DI WAS CAMOUFAGED.

THE THREE OPPOSING HUNTERS PASSED BY THERE AND VERY ANNOYED, AND WITHOUT KNOWING THAT
THIS WAS THE ILE OF OGBE DI, THEY SAID:

TODAY WE WILL KILL OGBE DI IF WE FIND HIM; OGBE DI HEARD THIS AND GOT READY AND WHEN THEY
CAME HE SHOT HIS AKOFA AND KNOCKED ONE DOWN.

WHEN THE OTHERS SEE THIS THEY LEFT RUNNING AWAY.

NOTE: OGBE DI IS VERY INTELLIGENT, AND THAT IS WHY HE HAS MANY ARAYES IN HIS BUSINESS,
BECAUSE OF HIS INTELLIGENCE, LUCK AND SKILL. BE CAREFUL, THEY ARE WATCHING YOU, DISGUISE THE
DOOR OF YOUR ILE, SO THEY DO NOT KNOW YOU.
