A Nigerian man has taken to social media to express his frustration after a cow, allegedly belonging to a herder, rammed into his car while he was driving with his family.
In a video circulating online, the visibly agitated man narrated how the cow suddenly dashed onto the road and collided with his moving vehicle, leaving noticeable damage. He emphasized that his wife and child were inside the car at the time of the incident, and expressed concern over what could have happened if the impact had been worse.
“I was driving peacefully with my wife and baby when this cow just came out of nowhere and hit the car,” he said. “Anything could have happened. This nonsense must stop.”
The man further condemned what he described as the growing recklessness of open grazing and called on authorities to take firm action against herders whose animals roam freely and endanger lives.
The incident reignited public debate on open grazing policies and the need for stricter enforcement of laws regulating livestock movement, especially in urban and residential areas.
At the time of reporting, there has been no official statement from local authorities regarding the incident.
