Leadership : The Philosophy Of The Fulani Herdsman by myselfonly: 9:15am On Aug 28, 2015 |
He is always in front of his herd not behind them
because he leads them, not drive them.
He carries a stick, not to beat, but to guide and
defend them with it. When they come to cross the
road, he crosses last, to make sure each one crosses
safely.
When they come to a pond, they drink the water first,
before him. No matter how hungry he is, he will not
eat from the gourd he always carry, until he is sure
every member of his herd is satisfied.
He knows the name of each member of his herd, and
calls and dialogues with them individually or
collectively.
In time of danger, he has a distinct signal to tell them
to disperse, and where to assemble.
A Fulani man will never eat meat from a member of his
herd (some never eat cow meat at all), because of the
unwritten covenant between them.
That’s why the cow trusts its owner and obeys him.
And that’s why leaders are admonished to adopt the
philosophy of the Fulani Herdsman in leading their
people. (Courtesy of Danmasanin Kano Alhaji Yusuf Maitama Sule) http://newsrescue.com/the-philosophy-of-the-fulani-herdsman/ |
