I think Bob Dylan is the one of the best songwriters ever.. How he's able to express stuffs with poetry is just amazing. ..
I'm looking for a thumbs up emoticon to use for u. I didn't see.


Songwriting started sensibly with this legend

When you listen to his folk songs, you ll have no choice but to respect him. Bob Dylan is not just a poet, but a poet with a difference. He deserves it!

Knockin on heaven's door
Blowin in the wind
I ll keep it with mine

Above are a few of my favourites by him..
Mehn take five.


This man was famous cos he began the age of songwriting with meaning impact.

Those old rock guys that sang and had lil sensible words cos of their drug addiction, etc were forced to start saying sensible words.

Well Zimmerman, as Dylan's former name is, is a legend and I can't but twale fro his big big works

Knocking on heaven's door was performed by Uriah Shelton on the movie Lifted

Also Blake Shelton was totally inspired by Dylan

Rob Shelton was his biographer. Seems everything Shelton is linked to Dylan.

download Uriah Shelton's version and you'll hit repeat.

This is serious


if you want be bad be bad, if you want be good stick to it. That's hypocrisy+ deception now.


A lady told me this... She said once they see husband-material they start acting in line with all the stuff that makes them a couple. but they do play behind. Sometimes they are both aware that they cheat but the lady would do all in her power to at least pretend to Wana settle down.


I left that seat that day overwhelmed. Asif God just allow her open up her floodgates to tell me alot....

Should the governor's desk take too long to reach, here are a few steps which might get his attention;

1. Take it to twitter tomorrow. Rant and mention as many handles as you can in series of posts, giving enough details.
2. Do the same on Facebook with pictorial evidences.
3. Copy the link forum here and paste on other platforms.

Then start finding your way to the governor's desk. Trust me, he'll reach you before reaching him.

PS: If the Ekiti state government have official handles on either or both Facebook or and Twitter, exploit these means.
Well I think popc will have a way. Relatives can help reach faster.

Next time fence your farm and have a gate. Generally Nigerians have little or no regards for other peoples property or feelings.
Oga, fencing and gate? omg


We can do wire fencing perhaps, but out of hundreds of farmlands at Orin, that would make us the nd to do so. The cows have passed thru lots of land and didn't touch naffin.


The land rental is for a year besides.

Sorry about the loss, Dave. I'd suggest you guys find a way to make this get to the hearing of the governor, knowing how well he relates with the people and his stance on Fulani Herdsmen I'm the state.

And since the anti-grazing bill has been signed into law in the state, it's so much better involving the police. For those advising you ask your dad to get the 10k, kindly ignore them. What happens when they come again, would you also collect another 10k?

Besides, while 10k might cover for seeds, would it as well cover energies lost? Please escalate the issue.
@ delors, this is just what you should have though before goin that direction. Why would I hate? whose ox is goad here. Besides put yourself in my shoes before you conclude..


Sanchez it seems the Governor 's desk is the next step. Thanks

I thought there was strict regularisation of grazing activities in Ekiti state? Since you're in Ado-Ekiti, I think it makes this a little easier. Work with officials from Agric. Min alongside the police.
I feel your pain bro. This kind of loss can be really painful. But please be careful.
Well Min. of Agric in Ado... they aren't reliable fellas. I can beat my chest and say it non front of them. All they care about is the cash that comes in from renting of tractors for peeps interested in farming. Even this police stuff now, I don't feel it will help.


mencade5:
Davep make una report to fayose........na him go handle this thing well for una with enough profit. Na ekiti na.....trust ur governor
Still working on this actually. He'll be mad if he hears this.

bbjummy:
This boss actually said the better TRUTH @OP. If you live on the Plateau you surely will understand what he is talking about. You trash a Fulani, overnight everyone in that family will be dead. They are heartless and useless set of people. The live of their useless cattle matters to them than that of any human being. They never FORGIVE neither do they FORGET. Even in centuries, they will wipe away any person's family that stands AGAINST them. I can write a book on this HOOLIGANS!!
Hmm. The degree of violence shown from them, i already know, but as much as I Wana avoid the physical, they don't even have able bodied boys to stage it
Agriculture › Re: A Bad Day With Fulani Herdsmen(Pics) by daveP(op): 11:22pm On Oct 14, 2016
delors:
Good. My position is, tell your dad to get the 10k. Buy new seeds and replant. And tell your dad that the herdmen be more watchful so their cows don't enter your land to do more damage especially when they are grazing.
Tell him to do all these in a friendly manner. Those guys, as you hav mentioned, have no formal education, no chill and no remorse. Any misunderstood move from ur dad could be perceived as an act of aggression. I am.not sure your hectares of maize is worth any bloodshed. Those guys could kill if things go out of hand.
And where is your own calculation of #60k coming from? That could be seen as an act if greed. No one would even give you that kind of money, Fulani or not, talk less of these guys. Rethink your position and approach everything with diplomacy, tact and caution.
We don't want to see any news if herdsmen killing people on some farmland in Ado ekiti because of a meagre 'how much'. A word is enough for the wise.

And stop the hatred yourself...why do u sound so hurt and hateful? Is it because they are not your tribe? #SoulSearchingTime
Don't take it that way atall.


I have records of all cash spent, Labor inclusive and the spraying cost.


their own interpreter said the harvest of one plot alone brought him 30k by selling to peeps in Ado-ekiti.


The area they ate is more than that and even that 60k mentioned is just not it. what do I Wana gain from greed when stats and figures are there?

Nice one! Let them pay for the loss
A friend's father had this same fulani herdsmen issue in a village in Delta State. The cows, numbering over 50 entered into my friend's dad's cassava farm of more than 10 plots. This old man was shedding tears.
Few days latter we started seeing dead bodies of cows around. We no even care, na so we begin collect free meat o grin Later we found out that the deed was carried out by one baddo for the area. The guy sprayed one kind poisonous chemical around a plot of land where the cows normally visit. Naso God take bless our Christmas and new year that year. Fulani guys self run...
They fear the unseen. I guess this didn't raise their suspicion cos they see their cows die often, but they don't have a sixth sense to think why. Education is a big Gulf btw us and them

BascoVanVeli:
I feel it's about time, that is what we have been missing becos that's where the game is at. Players like Auba and Mahrez could have played for France. Mostly the French speaking countries have been taking advantage of this, most players on the Algerian national team played a certain level of football in French youth setup. U get very skilled players over there but I think the English game with it's pace suits our style and just like Iwobi I don't think it will be hard to get these players to adapt. The problem will be if we start promising them playing time cuz they have to bust their butts and earn it.
Well since we know that they have some technical advantage from the clubs they play for, we just need to bother about commitment and passion to fly.


If we get them to say yes, they just make a friendly to try them out, I think if they shine, it will boost their playing time for their clubs(which is mostly the case). That way, the hbp of fans will drop knowing that some super sub "sani emmanuel" will come on and even increase game tempo(which is not usually the case with us. We need to change this pattern. most of our 2nd halves we play tired and more technical teams may use this on a bigger stage)


Well we can pull this stuff, but just one name will always not recognise the fact that they need to up their game:.... NFF

If the only positive thing Pinnick can do is get those player to switch to the National team and on numbers, I'll say he's done a good job in his tenure.


It's advisable one in a top position evaluate him/ herself and try to do one thing that would over cloud past and dirty mistakes when finishing!!
