They are also more environmentally friendly.

At the time I was informed it was a bad idea, by my relatives.<BR/><BR/>So I find your journey up north to be very interesting. <BR/><BR/>The Fulani are a very resilient and handsome people. <BR/><BR/>I hadn't realised how rudimentary the lives of the nomadic Fulani are, each to their own as they say.<BR/><BR/>The Katsina Durbar looked a lot more interesting than the Kano one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
