In ‘Fulani Cattle’, the poet expresses
- his belief that cattles are meant to be slaughtered by men
-
regret that there will soon not be enough cattle to go round
- the idea that cattle are created strong to enable them endure the long journey from the north to the south
- sympathy for the cattle that are driven from the north to the south of Nigeria to be slaughtered
- admiration for the sharp knife with which the cattle are slaughtered.
