Speaking for the whole company, Mr. Sizya Lubuva of Kinondomi, Dar es Salaam,
said: "A number of us were having a conference about the future of the village
as a tourist center when Mr. Nuugu Tabara said he would climb up the palm under
which we were sitting to get some coconut milk for us.  No sooner had he 
climbed the tree, than he was attacked by a huge Indian crow and fell down 
onto the roof of Mr. Malinjoo's Ford Fiesta.  There is no truth to the 
suggestion that we were boozing away our time on komoni, although I agree 
coconut milk is one its ingredients.  Everyone knows how dangerous those crows 
are.  They will snatch food off your plate, and last week they stole three 
bedsheets and a loudspeaker from my sister's house."
