Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a Nigerian farmer, Goddey Ehiwarior, whose story once went viral for his large barn of yam spoke about his pastoral life.

In a video interview, the man who has seven wives said that he learned farming from his father since he never had the opportunity of going to school.

Goddey stated that he has over 100 acres of farmland where he also plants things like melons and cassava.

In a confident voice, the man said that he has achieved many feats in farming without tractors as everything is done manually.
