A farmer woman affected by the destruction of her village by a group of herdsmen, makes her way home after farming in a village near Dasso, Nigeria on February 18, 2019, just a few days ahead of the country’s general election. – Nomadic cattle herders and farmers are fighting in near-daily clashes that have left thousands dead in Nigeria and hundreds of villages affected. Both farmers and herdsmen hope the next government would settle their bloody feud. Over the past two years, the fighting has grown more bloody and more politicised with Nigeria’s incumbent President being accused of backing herders.
