Over the weekend, popular Afrobeat singer, Femi Kuti caused a scene that attracted a sizable crowd when he sought help to fish out a lizard that entered his car via the dashboard on the Third Mainland Bridge in Lagos.  Femi Kuti narrated his ordeal jokingly at MUSON Center's pre-event news briefing. The Afrobeat King said he was horrified by the event.  He said a lizard appeared all of a sudden, from the dashboard of the automobile, while he was at top speed, starring at him snappily before ducking away.  In no time, the search party increased around the Black Prado Jeep. Perhaps then, it dawned on the musician, how seriously he had painted the scenario. The crowd, including his colleague, Yinka Davies begun to have amused, and Kuti, tried to create a joke of the situation.

Researchers have named a newly discovered, prehistoric lizard “Obamadon gracilis” in honor of the 44th president’s toothy grin.  The small, insect-eating lizard was first discovered in eastern Montana in 1974, but a recent re-examination showed the fossil had been wrongly classified as a Leptochamops denticulatus and was in fact a new species, researchers told Reuters on Tuesday. Obamadon gracilis was one of nine newly discovered species reported on Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
