A Yoruba Man and an Igbo man
were caught in Saudi Arabia,
sharing a smuggled barrel of
beer. They were arrested and
taken
to the Sheikh's palace for
questioning and judgement. The
yoruba man lied that the igbo
man smuggled and forced him to
drink the beer!! Both were
initially
given a death sentence but, as it
was a national holiday, the
sheikh decided they should be
released after some lashes of
the whip. As they were
preparing for
their punishment, the sheikh
said, "It's my first wife's
birthday
today and she asked me to
allow each of you 2 wishes
before your whipping, but you
cannot wish not to be whipped!"
The igbo man thought for a
second then said: "Please tie two
pillows to my back before
whipping." And
my second wish is that you flog
me only 20 strokes of the whip.
He was whipped, and luckily for
him, the pillows helped to make
the pain of the whip lesser.:$
The yoruba man saw this; thought
for a second, then said: "Thank
you, most royal and merciful
highness for the wishes. My
first wish is to receive 100 lashes
with the strongest..., toughest
whip available." :O
"If you so desire," the sheikh
replied with a puzzled look on his
face..., " and your second wish?"
Yoruba man replies: "Tie the igbo
man to my back....
Igbo man faints..
