the basic function of every government is to provide security for its citizens and ensure law and order. this responsibility does not entirely rest on a particular legislative list and can therefore be said to be partly a government and state responsibility. I think the reason the onus lies on the federal government is that they control the countries security apparatus and every move made by the states is still subject to federal scrutiny

EXACTLY!!! Thank God someone else is seeing what we have been seeing.

That notion of "hold Buhari responsible for every crime committed by a Fulani man since he is also Fulani" is the demonic notion the bastard hateful children of the Fallen Angel have been trying to force Nigerians to accept.

It has not and will NEVER stick!

They can continue radicalising themselves as they please- when the bow breaks, they shall be rightly tagged the terrorists they are and treated as such.

God bless you Baba for speaking the truth, and God bless the President FRN (GCFR), Mohamadu Buhari. smiley

Guy,thank God none of your family was involved in the massacre. If not u won't come here and support Obasanjo that is not relevant to humanity. I respect Tinubu to the old fool.he is one of the reasons we are where we are.am not surprised,he is preventing himself from the Halliburton scandal

Ha nawao! Really there is nothing worse than being
an Afonja. First, has this man forgotten that Buhari is a
fulani man? Has he forgotten he is not only the
president of the country, he also the grand patron of
Miyetti Allah? Has this man forgotten that roles of all
the law enforcement agencies of this country are defined in the exclusive list? Do Governors have state
police? It's always unfortunate when an elder
stateman talks and reason like a motor park tout just
because he doesn't his corruption page to be opened......

@mod, I believe you can see this comment

I am not partisan, and I try not to involve in anything politics on this forum. Obj has his opinion likewise people that support his opinion. If anyone has a different opinion, they should lay it out with facts. But in a situation where an entity believes he or she will use the opportunity to insult other tribe should be severely frown at.

@OAM4J, @mynd44, @seun, I believe the moniker OgbonnaUbani as well as other monikers swift in insulting other trives deserve a very lengthy ban

Crybaby according to sarrki and Co. You should handle the matter and stop whining and reporting.

At certain ages, people should know that they are very much closer to the grave and truth is all they need to be at peace with their Maker and the Society.

but it's Buhari's duty to bring about grazing bill, forgetting that the herdsmen are just business people. So It's wrong to forceful input a law just to their favour into our constitution

meanwhile OBJ where is the over 16billion Naira you spent on pictures showed on NTA on power procurements in Nepa but on ground na desert we see

OBJ was spot on.
The Fulani have a right to engage in their pastime but equally have no right to damage other ppl's crops.
This was why he explained the existence of grazing grounds even as far back as during the colonial era - so that Fulani can live and let live.
Unfortunately, there have been so much encroachment into these grazing land by farm and other settlements over the years so that Fulani have been having less and less places to graze - leading the inevitable clash between them and farmers.
One of the ways to address this problem is to give the Fulani back some of their lost pastoral grounds by restoring some of the past grazing grounds - hence the proposed bill.
Its simple common sense.

When it comes to Fulani it's give give give.

Are they rearing these animals for Nigeria or do they give it to Nigerians for free? Last time I checked, people pay to buy these meat. They don't pay for land neither do they pay taxes. Na only them dey like 100% profit with no expenses?

It's a private business, hence they should invest in land properties and stop relying on lopsided government favors.

And they should pay taxes too.


You make no sense. Stop using the words "common sense"

Fulani herdsmen constitute a security problem to the country and I do think that Federal government, being in charge of security of the country, should also take responsibility in handling the Fulani herdsmen terrorism. Nevertheless, I do agree with Obasanjo that state government must also have an input.
Things are too centralized in Nigeria. Cities don't even have there own police talkless of local govts because we have a national police force. In other countries, i can't even imagine having a national police force. Local govts should be granted full autonomy to provide services for there constituents like electricity, water, roads, education and most importantly SECURITY.

The FG, to show Care, should provide extra Budget Funds to State Governments to run Ranches and Agricultural Farm lands side by side for their people. OBJ was a democratic President.

This is why I like the Ekiti man, protecting his own. Thats is grass-root governance for you, he might not be perfect but aggressive to-protect his own at any cost.

Obasanjo who has no clue about good governance is not expected to say otherwise. Herdsmen and Farmers clashes is not Buhari's responsibility. Drought is not Buhari's responsibility. Insurgency and quelling a foreign invasion is not Buhari's responsibility. Nigerians,it is a sad day,you are your own President, you are your own Commander-in-Chief.

He's right though on certain level. It's up to us to protect our selves from these terrorist. Arm yourselves and family members then fence property. Protect your life liberty and property.

Next state governments should be protecting people's property. Why are they there if they can't do this small act. The state govenors have been acting cowardly towards issue because they feel buhari people are unofficial sacred cows.

Federal government is weak and ineffective. Buhari won't at least condemn the actions going that's happening in multiple states across the country.

My recommendations: the gun is a mosberg 500 tactical, slug rounds for gun, then barbed wire for farmers to male sure cattle don't encroach.
