The Life In Blue (e-book) (used book) | Abdoulaye Djaouga | bookbook.eu

Description

This novel gives a summary of the life of a young Pullo with its failures, contradictions, and success stories. The Life in Blue just because the Fulani people like the color blue and red. This can be remarked during the weekly and monthly market days mostly in Central and West Africa where these herdsmen live. They spread over nearly 25 of the 54 countries in Africa with amazingly the same language, culture, and tradition: The Pulaaku which includes almost all the Fulbe Core Values and Ethics. It is a pity that this great Nation with no proper land (they are considered foreigners everywhere) suffers considerably today due to new land regulations and legislation. For the Fulani, nature, mainly the bush part of it with its gracious grassland and vegetation is a mere God's given gift to everybody and anyone can take advantage of. So, they move from one area to another with their flock for herding purpose and allow the flock to feed themselves well. For the Fulbe, real philosophers, cows are like human beings so they are given the full attention and care possible. They are unfortunately misunderstood and ill-treated, manipulated... Let it be changes as they are very peaceful.
