Herdsmen Burnt Down My Plantain Farm by sulaimon22: 12:20pm On Feb 14, 2021
As a young man in Nigeria trying to survive, I ventured into farming and this is what Fulani herders did to my farm overnight

This is outright injustice.

if only our corrupt leaders care. get some very dangerous weapons, lots of petrol and lighter, strong aboki rope, pay some thugs, trace those fulani to where they sleep at night, attack them without notice, kill the men first, then tie all the captured women and kids and cows, burn them with the building to ashes, go home and sleep well.

I do not believe you.
I do not believe this was done by Fulani herdsmen.
Let's be careful not to cast aspersion on tribes.

Please do not forget what our national leader Tinubu adviced in July 2019 when commenting on the murder of Funke Olakunrin (Pa Fasoranti's daughter) by supposed Fulani herdsmen.

In case you have...this were his words.

"....there are a lot of copycats...How many years ago have we faced the insecurity in the country? There are cases of kidnapping.
Is Evans too; who was arrested and made disclosures, also a herdsman?

“I don’t want to be political, but I will ask, where are the cows?”


:Bola Ahmed Tinubu, 2019.


This was done overnight, so how are you sure it was done by Fulani herdsmen and not your kinsmen who are envious that you are gradually finding your feet?
Till you find their cows, I will neither believe nor condole with you.

Forgive my pessimism and rationalism; our leader Jagaban can not be wrong.

Ah!

I just leave my workers to work on site I don't go there daily. But I hardly come across fulani there nah. The community policing by the entire community is also strict. How could this evil act get done just like that


I hope you've notified the elders in the area you got the land and Oie?



I am not close to the villages. I got my own sites deep inside the forest so I'm quite distant from people and isolated inside inside

I am so sorry for your loss,

I lived in India for few years, I noticed Indians have more cows than 50 African countries combined together.

Yet you don't hear about herdsmen or roaming cows wandering into farms and destroying things.

I went to do my research and discovered that, everything is organized in India, They have a farming zone in India,

but in Nigeria our farms are scattered anyhow, the way we build our houses indiscriminately without planning..

We are supposed to have a farming zone, it would be big that it can be easily seen from space.

let us organise our farming arrangement, you can't turn a residential area to a farm, In the past their was a grazing route but people now farm, build homes on those grazing routes making herdsmen go around in mazes

Nothing like envy in this community. There's over 5000 acres for here oh, you want land you clear, land is everywhere. Thus is definitely what the OP says it is

Sorry for your loss but sincerely this doesn't look like herdsmen's hand work. Herdsmen don't burn bushes, I might be wrong though..
Re: Herdsmen Burnt Down My Plantain Farm by NttpGARRIfctory: 1:39pm On Feb 14, 2021
The criminals amongst them do. They burn bushes (farms) to fasten sprout of new green leaves so as to feed their cattles when next they come to the area.

Exactly sir. They burn bushes for other new weeds to come out for their cows to feed on. For those saying it's envy or local people around, there is nothing of sort over here. There are large amount of lands for everybody to farm on. Renting of lands is not even cost

I just reported this to one of the best persons to have knowledge of events in the area with the hope we can use collective communal will to act on the matter. Would it be possible I know the clan or area this farmland is?

From what you deduce from the body of the message you don't see where I dropped the location of the farm when someone asked me to drop or you are just here to register your presence
