QUESTION 3 10 MARKS

Allan has been a cattle farmer in the Gobabis district in Namibia for the last 10 years. He attends many cattle auctions in order to purchase cows for his dairy farm. On one of his visits to the auction he enquired from Ben whether or not the 10 cows Ben was selling at the auction were in fact milk cows and how many litres of milk they produce per day.

Ben told Allan that his cows were indeed milk cows and produced a minimum of 10 litres of milk each per day. Subsequent to their conversation Allan bid on the cows and purchased them for N$ 40 000. A week after the purchase of the cows none of them produced a drop of milk.

Legally Advise Allan as to what he could do in these circumstances.
