STOLEN BANANAS

END UP BACK IN OWNER’S HANDS, AT A PRICE

- 

The owner of the home garden is a farmer in the Hasalaka area whose main occupation is paddy cultivation.

In addition, he cultivates coconut, banana, and vegetables to support his family of four children.

He is constantly facing the menace of thieves who enter the home garden at night and steal his crops. Quite often, bunches of bananas, areca nuts, and coconuts are stolen from his garden, much to his anxiety. On pitch-dark nights and rainy days, manioc and yams too are at the mercy of thieves.
