While we deliberated on taking it up with the police and all, my dad was busy reasoning on challenging them cos he understood their language and commuted with them, especiall one of them that had formal education to SSCE Level. I learnt from the farm manager that because he insisted on going to school, his father's wives, numbering 5 refused to give him his share of the inheritance which was actually quite a fortune. He didn't mind, but the foolishness of the wives was evident in that he was an interpreter and helped with
transporting their produce to the city where it will be bought, else, they'll rot away in the deep farm settlement all to themselves.


Dad got an audience while I went round the farm snapping evidence of the colossal damage the cows did to a month's maize on height. I felt like taking physical action. Well it's about to involve the police.


While they were talking, the old man that owned the cows said he wasn't aware that his sons(the man looked 86 and his eldest son was 17) encroached our farm. He apologized and popc decided to make them pay with mutual interest first. The interpreter's talk got me suspicious and I shifted closer to hear what they will offer.


The old man wanted to offer a meagre 5000 naira for the damage his cows did!!!!


My dad refuse and I interrupted to tell my dad that he better let this peeps pay well for their damage.

They supposed to pay nothing less than 60k but here was the old man, saying 5k!!?


I got angry and told my old man to use negotiating tactics and tell them he'll get to them but refusing the 5k. he stood up to leave and they now in fear, double it to 10k.


Not enough still..... but from what happened yesterday I could deduce that


1) These Fulani herds men had no value for anything not theirs

2) The fear of repercussion makes them do stuff to even the extent of being the agressor.

3) The detest formal education, Western as they call it.

4) They swear a lot

5) The owners of the cows they herd are mostly politicians based mostly in Abuja


Pics follow.

The police will enter the matter by Monday!!

Agriculture › A Bad Day With Fulani Herdsmen(Pics) by daveP(op):
How would I start....


Well years back in the family, our dad's strong interest in farming sprung up again. My Brothers and myself didn't like the idea and we stayed away as possible.


He tried to encourage us by paying us for our labour on the large farm settlement located at FedPoly, Ado-ekiti, and we had to drop our 'guy' mentality. The harvest of Yam, Maize and Tomatoes was enough to sustain us for a year.


Cash came and we advised our old man to switch to mechanized Farming if he wanted us fully interested and he yielded and why I was at school, he rented some hectares, 4 in all at the Orin farm settlement in Ido-osi. My bro updated me and it was then I learnt some fulani were also farmers there. they planted maize mostly and their cows about 100 grazed on the lands yet to be rented out for planting.


I watched as labourers planted the maize on 2 hectares and I joined afterwards. The 'moo' of the cows sounded nearby. Little did we know our crops would be their grazing ground a month later which happened last week.



While I prepared for resumption, the farm was sprayed, etc to enable smooth and healthy growth of the corn, beans, cassava, until the farm manager called to say that an entire hectare of maize has been eaten by cows. Their hooves were visible in the fertile soil, so there was no denial of we took it up.

Overall, the Golden 11 of English overhype and fame didn't smell the aroma of a trophy in their trophy cabinet, but Nigeria has severally with player we ourselves don't have faith in.

you 're wicked o!!!
See individual players.
What a wasted generation.

I now see reason why miss safari no like all these english media. They can hype player mehn...

Even presently d 3-lions can't boast of a team that match that set in all ramification and yet still Ibe, Iorfa and d rest wants to don that jersey. Issorite...make them carry on wishing them all da best.

I'm proud to be a Nigeran. I'm proud of the Green White Green.
In Sir Mikron's voice 'The land is GREEN'
If i
we guys here attempt to do analysis on this hype...it would ruin Epl


Musa Mohammed vs Ivanovic

Mikel Vs Matic


Iwobi vs whoever


Nacho vs Rasford

I think The Nigerian League is good. But also our own Journalist should hype and add color to the league. Do we have our own opta stats? we can start there.

Do we have possession analysis? they can computerize this league and Africa go fear. grin


naso, that overhype made me wicked. I'll agree!!

blueto:
Glo have tried, we should be grateful at least, especially in this period of economic recession. They are currently sponsoring in other sectors, so it doesn't inculpate them for failing to replicate such benevolence in the educational sector of the nation. MTN is assumed to possess the highest number of clients/subscribers so one should anticipate them to provide more CSRs when compared to others. And I can axiomatically state that Glo is currently offering the cheapest and one of the most efficient/durable data bundles, so they should be encouraged, not reproached.
I disagree.


I've observed they put their money where they think a fat gain can be seen. Which means they don't view education as such.


All those cash wasted on crap glo ambassadors here and there could have just been pumped into education, and we would be thanking their influence in that sector; he doesn't need to get monetary gain, but a satisfaction that he is Re igniting the legacy of a generation.


Misplaced priorities I'll tell you. and to think that it's an indigenous company again....?? no that's uncalled for.

he can't negotiate for 1/4 or 2/9 of these girls but it accepted 1/10 of the girls and all those celebrating are applauding and caring this success.


This is a facade and we know the scriptwriter has some interesting and vital experience than Wolf Soyinka's Stage play directing.

These players have more mafia thunder than taribo and co had. their rants were enough to sack a coach?


With that their weak midfield. I expect the Uyo faithfuls to be chanting "eh eh eh ooohhh" throughout that match next month.

Rem when we beat them for third place at Afcon years ago. Nsofor sliced their defence like a caterpillar on a construction site.


whatever fire power, inasmuch we own that middle, we would be able to defend in numbers when they attack.

Loooolllll... But I do.
If ot for Iwobi, I doubt Ozil, or any other European footballer would ever admit they styled their game after an African, or even loved watching an African star when they were kids.

till date only Ronaldinho has admitted and it was in an interview on how he came to play the way he was then.



13 slots of Europe for WV should be reduced to 8. or even 5 from each continent, then we'll know how world football really is.

Wait, Rohr has spoken like 4 times in 2 weeks and it's asif I now see this old man's talk. All his talks are mind games!!!!


why say the num of points you want from a WCQ group for that matter?

Why do makeshifts?


Why did he smile and tap Moses Simon when they came in contact during the Zambia game instead of reprove him for wasteful chances?


This man is turning the hornet's nest in a humorous way. he can't be that stupid.
