CHAPTER X

CHIEF NDIGBA’S DISAPPOINTMENT
AS HE SAW NATURAL CROCODILE

Sun City Resort – Many Nigerians visiting South Africa would want to visit Sun City Resort, perhaps they do not know much about it. Apart from money, bags, the Resort is not for the poor. Deep in the rugged bushveld, in the heart of an ancient volcano, lays the world’s most unique resort. This is the internationally acclaimed Sun City. It features Adventure seekers and it has two incredible world-class, par-72 holes championship golf course.

Most importantly Sun International is a haven for gambling by people of 18 and above.
Sun City Resort has a unique heartbeat and an African rhythm of its own and is unlike any other Resort destination in the world. The resort is pure fantasy as every desire is met. There are four world-class hotels including the magnificent palace of the Lost City that glitters like a jewel beneath the African sun, brilliant in its rain forest surroundings and luxurious in its detail and design.

Adjoining the Resort, is the beautiful Pilanesburg National Park, which will delight game viewers as it is a malaria free zone and home to the Big Five – Lion, Rhino, Leopard, Elephant and Buffalo. There is also a pool where crocs could be viewed. This sight would please the Chief greatly but there are crocodiles that are in their natural habitat and has no myth attached to them. No sangoma’s abode can even be seen around the vicinity. Remember, it was a place that the apartheid promoters developed.

The Chief and companion joined others, mostly tourists, to revel in vanity and what Nigerians described in common parlance as “declaring surplus”, of course, most of their stay was in Johannesburg.
