Malik Basintale Flaunts His Large Cattle Farm As He Prepares for Eid

• Youth Employment Agency CEO Malik Basintale, in a video, shared footage from one of his large-scale cattle farms
• The NDC communicator said he visited the farm as part of his preparation towards the upcoming Eid al Adha holiday
• The video was in response to an online property battle with viral sensation Bishop Kwabena Asiamah, aka Ajagurajah

The acting Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Youth Employment Agency (YEA), Malik Basintale, has given netizens a glimpse into his side hustle as a cattle farmer.

The politician took to social media to share his recent farm moments ahead of the upcoming Eid al-Adha on Friday on June 6.

The Interior Ministry declared the holiday in a statement signed by Minister Muntaka Mohammed-Mubarak, issued on May 29.

Eid-Ul-Adha, also known as the Festival of Sacrifice, is one of the most significant events on the Islamic calendar.

It honours the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to Allah - a story shared across Islamic faiths. Often, Muslims would share food, meat and other goods.

In a video published on June 1, Malik Basintale showed fans around his ranch, which is housed on a vast stretch of green land and looked neat and mechanised.

Basintale dares Ajagurajah with his cattle farm

In the video, fans couldn't help but notice Malik Basintale's Shaxi-branded T-shirt. The politician's farm moments come after his YEA's partnership with Shatta Wale's ride-hailing service.

During the partnership, Malik promised Shatta Wale to broker a deal for 150 electric vehicles to be registered on the platform. He also expressed an interest in becoming an ambassador for the musician's brand for free.

Shortly after Shatta Wale and Basintale announced their Shaxi partnership, viral sensation Ajagurajah attempted to enlist the politician as a target for his online banters.

He began his feud with the YEA boss by showing him his subsistence animal farm. According to Basintale, the visit to his farm was to jab Ajagurajah.

He told Ajagurajah that his ranch was only one of many farm properties he owned, and established that the controversial viral sensation would not compare to him.

In a post accompanying his video, Basintale said:

"You showed me a two-month-old cow, I've shown you my cattle farm."
