According to the news reported by Stuppid.com, a website that’s known for controversial and outrageous stories, the wealthy American went on a hunting safari to Africa with his son, Skyler in 2014 and brought back Ezekiel from Nigeria as a human toy after his son found the style of living of Africans very funny.
‘Last year, I took Sky on a hunting safari to Africa and he was delighted by the African people. How funny they were, how they were always smiling and so eager to please. At first he just wanted to take one, but I told him kidnapping was illegal. So instead, I bought him one and told him to do whatever my son ask him to do.’
The 13-year old son, Skyler, has described Ezekiel as his best toy ever and narrated how he ordered him to do whatever he wants
‘This one time I made him stand on one foot for the entire day, I also made him eat a spider. He does whatever I say. He’s the best toy ever.’
As ridiculous as the story sounds, the truth value in it seems close to zero as one wonders which safari the American came to see in Nigeria and where to have met and ‘purchased’ another human being for his son. This is aside all the legal issues surrounding such a ‘transaction,’ meaning the plausibility of it all is in doubt.
