    A poor presentation. The relationship between the Fulani and Tiv dates back at least 4 centuries, long before they came to the Benue valley.
    It was Uthman Danfodio who strained the relationship between the two people when he attacked the Tiv with his jihad. He was eventual killed, and his death lead to the Fulanis holding a vendetta against the Tiv. Since then mutual suspicion always remains in the background of an otherwise cordial relationship.
    I was also taught that the Fulanis gave the Tiv cattle as gifts, expecting them to rear and multiply them. But they ate them all. When the Fulanis asked the Tiv what happened to their cows they answered that they are them. Hence the name Munchi. It was not about getting women pregnant.

      In my presentation i practically called it a "claim". I did not precise. Maybe you should watch the video again.

      I disagree with you! In my opinion, the presenter did justice to the story.

      @@el-sig2249 It was needless for you to call this a poor presentation, you can however highlight your views with more polite words. That is just my humble opinion anyway!.
