How Fulani Herder Offered 150 Cows To Marry President’s Daughter

It is said that love does not reside in palaces alone but in any and every heart able to harbor it. So, has been the case with Abdullahi Bashir, a 22-year-old son of a herder from Adamawa State.

He was one of the many, who not only dreamed of marrying President Muhammadu Buhari’s daughter but actually declared an offer.

Abdullahi  was ready to contribute to the wedding expenses, convictions he expressed on social media while seeking access to the president’s daughter, Hanani.

He posted a video in which he offered 150 cattle as bride price if she agreed to his proposal.

 “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”.

Abdullahi has been described as more than , forest dwelling cattle boy, but a google certified web developer and digital marketer with 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.

“It was later that I got to know she was the president’s daughter”, he revealed.

 “It is not common for a president’s daughter to work as a photographer even in Europe”, he said.

“I always discussed with friends, showing them her pictures. One day, one of my friends, Ahmad Faisal, just asked if I had been in love with this girl.

“Wallahi, I suddenly realised it was true, I really loved her”.

During his adventure in the federal capital, the young man would gate-crash into venues of high-profile weddings and other events that attracted the wealthy and mighty in case Hanan was there taking pictures or sitting as a guest. He never found her.

 “I was still exploring the social media option when I heard she had been engaged, so I had to give up.

“The next option would have been to go to her grandparents’ house in Yola and establish a connection with her through her relations.

“Now that she is getting married, I wish her happy married life and I am happy to donate fifty cattle for the wedding” he said quietly.
