I am a Tiv boy from Benue state Nigeria, my name is Vershima.
As a boy growing up in my Village, I can remember very well when the wives of the nomadic farmers used to exchange cow milks for corn and yams from our communities (trade by batter) which I could remember a good relationship existed, because when a cattle destroyed farm produce they could settle amicably ( paying of damage) with is they could try not to enter farms again.
But all this has changed as the years passed as nomadic farmers attacks local communities and many killed , this happened around Benue state and many other places. It has become the right of the nomadic farmers to do and undo in all round the country, what Happens when a cow dies is even more terrifying. Thousands are killed for a cow.
This is not just a story it is what is happening, we are seeing the valuecide of human life in our world today, we most rise to defend the human life. ( This pictures are signs of what happens, as portrait in the shot)
