The Fulani is not so much married to the land. He's a pastoralist. Movement is more important to him than sedentariness. But what is their plan, if I may ask?

Are you sure it's not what psychologists call a phobia - an irrational fear. With zealous evangelism (hmm, I just think of Jehovah Witness now), I think it's the Muslims who are supposed to fear being Christianized, don't you think so? Yet, I've never heard them complain of such.

God has blessed this country sha....

Those wey no get enough land, God give them sth else.

But one can now see why lands are expensive and why people kill others for lands in some areas.
