IBULAWAYO, eZimbabwe - Uninzi lwethu luyalazi iqhina lefilosofi, "Ukuba umthi uwela ehlathini kwaye akukho mntu ujikeleze ukuwuva, ngaba uyavakala?" Kuthiwani xa umkhenkethi e-Afrika eze kuzingela indlovu, kodwa angaboni nanye indlovu – ngaba loo nto ithetha ukuba akukho ndlovu?
Umkhenkethi wasePoland owayesiya eZimbabwe waphulukana netyala lakhe ngokuchasene nearhente yokhenketho eyingcali kwinkundla yasePoznan, kwintshona yePoland. Ubanga ukuba i-arhente yokuhamba ayiphumelelanga ukubeka kwiindlovu ukuba adubule kwi-safari.
UWaldemar I. (igama ligodliwe phantsi komthetho wabucala wasePoland), uqeshe ifemu yaseJamani iJaworski Jagreisen ukuba ilungiselele uhambo lokudubula eZimbabwe. Noko ke, ukufika kwakhe apho, amathafa aloo mmandla waseZimbabwe ayengenazo iindlovu waza wabuyela ekhaya elambatha.
Ngaphandle kwamabamba amabini njengendebe, uthathe isigqibo sokumangalela inkampani yezokhenketho, esithi akazange abone ndlovu kule ndawo. Nangona kunjalo, ijaji ayizange ishukunyiswe yintlungu yommangali.
“Isibakala sokuba iindlovu azizange zifumaneke xa zazizingelwa akungqini ukuba iindlovu zazingekho,” yatsho njalo ijaji, ngokwentanda-bulumko.
INTO ONOKUYITHATHA KWELI NQAKU:
- Without a pair of tusks as a trophy, he decided to sue the travel company, claiming that he had not seen any elephants in the area.
- A Polish tourist to Zimbabwe lost his case against a specialist travel agency in a court in Poznan, western Poland.
- Most of us know the philosophical riddle, “If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound.
