A Nigerian herder has taken to social media to post a video in which he offered 150 cattle as bride price if Hanan Buhari, the daughter of President Muhammadu Buhari agreed to his proposal.
This is coming shortly after the wedding ceremony between Hanan Buhari and Fashola’s Aide.
The 22-year old Fulani man claimed he offered a contribution to the wedding activities when his bold moves to date her hit a solid wall.
After all, efforts to meet the girl personally to express his love failed, the young Fulani man took to social media, posting a video in which he offered 150 cattle as bride price if she agreed to his proposal.
When he learned that she was getting married to another man, he accepted it as the will of God and announced his contribution of 50 cattle for the wedding ceremony.
“By offering 150 cattle for Hanan’s hand in marriage, I didn’t mean to show that I was wealthy, in fact I am nobody.
“I was not looking at the market value of the cattle, I was looking at the value of a cow to a Fulani man.
“It is easier for a Fulani man to give you one million naira than to give you his cow.
“This shows how much I value and love her”, he said.
Far from being a typical stick-wielding, forest-dwelling cattle boy, Abdullahi is a google certified web developer and digital marketer with a profound interest in digital photography and videography.
“I developed the website of Koode Radio International, a Fulfulde AM station located in Abuja, and I am the one managing the site.
“I am into journalism as a freelance reporter with the radio station”, he stated in an exclusive interview with Daily Trust.
He noted that he is currently focusing on using his YouTube channel to create awareness among his Fulani kinsmen about modern ranching business as well as train youngsters on technology and innovation.
