Yusuf Ibrahim, the Maiduguri based fried fish seller who made news yesterday for causing a sheep that had eaten his fried fish to be arrested and detained by the police is N50,000 richer.

Honorable Husseini Monguno who is member of the Board of the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) and a member of the APC presidential campaign council, appeared to have been impressed by the magnanimity of the fish seller and he got across to me to source for the man’s account details for immediate remittance of N50,000.

Hussaini Monguno said that the big heart exhibited by the fish seller and the capacity he exhibited of tolerating the sheep’s endless raids for five years, was impressive and highly magnanimous and thus deserving of his reward.

He remarked that his intention was to help Yusuf Ibrahim to recover from his loses and recapitalize.

He noted that small businesses such as Yusuf’s have the tendency to fall under the weight of being eaten up intermittently and can easily go under.

He called on animal owners to take care of their domestic animals by feeding them and disallowing them to roam the neighborhood to cause havoc to small business owners.
Meanwhile, efforts have began to get the account details of the beneficiary or in the alternative to look for an intermediary to hand over the money to him.

Here is the follow up to the earlier story


YUSUF IBRAHIM FISH SELLER FORGIVES SHEEP

Malam Yusuf Ibrahim, the fried fish seller who caused a stir by causing a sheep to be arrested and detained by the Police in Maiduguri, Borno state has forgiven the offending sheep. It has since been released by the Bulabulin Divisional Police Headquarters on account of a settlement brokered.

The fish seller had complained bitterly that the sheep belonging to Luba Mohammed of the same Bulabulin neighborhood had caused him losses by raiding his selling point and taking mouthfuls of fried fish for upward of five years.

The raid yesterday, he said, was huge and he cannot just forgo it. As a result, it was arrested and detained by the Police yesterday.

Yusuf confirmed to a reporter that elders in the community succeeded in talking him into forgiving the transgression. The owner of the sheep, Luba Mohammed had mobilized community elders to intercede.

The fish seller said he has given conditions that what happened should not repeat itself. He extracted commitment from the owner to take care of her animals. Any repeat, it was agreed, will lead to legal action for redress.
