Honestly it makes total sense that he would do that. They phased out their old currency due to hilarious levels of hyperinflation.
He probably could have some more mobility with Bitcoin though even though Dollar is the normally used currency there now.
This is really cool! This only means that other people wanted to earn bitcoins than dollars, this only means that dollars can be an international currency but not all people wants to earn dollar. Maybe this man saw the advantage of bitcoins and he wants to invest on bitcoins since its price was continously increasing. Its really amazing that digital currency now are getting more and more popular. I hope this will help the community to become more popular.

HODLing is an art, not just a word...
haha this was pretty funny.
but i think the real question is if this is a Joke and if he is going to be successful in selling his cattle in the end?!!!

because to be honest i don't see any farmer in a third world country be using bitcoin and wanting to spend it on a cattle!

That's actually a pretty good idea, but Im not sure why he wouldnt just sell for normal currency

 Seriously?  This is why:

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/jun/12/zimbabwe-offers-new-exchange-rate-1-for-35000000000000000-old-dollars

 There is no trust for the Zimbabwe "normal" currency.

Finaly those africans are figuring out how to stay out of the debt system and banks. Maybe we should contact the guy somehow and make him some bitcoin enterpreneur to teach other africans to stay out of the shit the banks funded them.

In poland there is a proverb - One swallow doesnt make a spring. But maybe there will be more swallows there.
