UNBELIEVABLE! FULANI asks me for permission to graze on my uncultivated farmland

This has never happened before in my 4 years of farming. Even before Buhari government, they will just enter and start grazing and runoff with their cattle when you start shouting at them *Khia khai* or run after them throwing stones at then.

This must be a change of heart o, shocked or so i thought, until I remembered that the village community had gathered just yesterday to announce that Fulani leave the community immediately as they'd been served notice about a week ago. The Area command and barracks have also been duly informed.

My prayer is that they leave in peace and do not invite their terrorist brothers.

This community in Ogoja, cross river state which has farming as a major source of livelihood, has suffered in the hands of Fulani who uproot their cassava and yams and feed their cows. They also set your farm on fire so fresh grass can sprout for their cows. They have beat up several people who resisted them.

Well, I let the guy graze after he showed me exactly what route he will take with his cows. I just left my cassava sticks for a moment to take this pic and share my story. smiley

God bless Nigeria.

My dear, they've burnt my farm several times and uprooted cassava.

They guy would have grazed as usual if he met no one around or if they hadn't been sacked.

The guy first explained that a certain portion of the farm wasn't cultivated and asked if he can graze there.

BTW, we don't die
