See what happens when you enforce property rights. Buhari didn't run to Ekiti and give the governor a clothes line and rock bottom.

Modify: I like this, if all these useless Southern Governors enacted this law it would have help in putting these barbaric and backward set of people on the path they belong. Good one Fayose.

The prosecutor ‎said the accused, on the said date, unlawfully allowed their cattle to graze on farmland not designated as ranches, but belonging to Akinwale Bisi, Agbelegbe Dare and Paul Salami.

Osobu said the cattle thus damaged their crops, valued at eight hundred and fifty thousand naira (N850, 000).

He applied for a date of adjournment to file the case and send to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), for legal advice.

The pleas of the accused were not taken, as their counsel, Mr Ademola Okeya, sought for a short date of adjournment, pending the advice from he DPP Office.

Chief Magistrate Idowu Ayenimo remanded the accused persons in prison custody, till the outcome of the advice from the DPP.

He adjourned the case to Jan. 27, for further hearing.

Even if we don't like Fayose,we should commend him for his bravery in finding a legal solution to the menace of Fulani herdsmen. At least he is protecting his people. Shame to other governors who watch helplessly as their people are being terrorised by Fulani herdsmen.

Fayose is setting pace in defining the true meaning of Federalism

There's no need to like him at all. His actions will get him the loyalty he needs. I love that man for knowing he is the CSO and not some arm wielding police officer in Abuja. Lagos state is fast in implementing traffic laws and I know it's safe to say Fayose is implementing the needed malu law to save his people.
