Piggery Farmers Demand For Piggery Colonies In Northern States by gentlezypher: 1:21pm On Jan 14, 2018
The National Association of
Piggery Farmers are demanding
colonies for their pigs across the
19 Northern States of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria. In a statement signed by Ogbuefi
Animam Eze, the National
secretary of the association,
which was made available to The
HERALD via electronic
communication, NAPF called out the Federal Government for
marginalizing its farmers and
exposed the harassment they
have been hitherto facing from
Hisbah police in the shariah parts
of the country. The statement reads,
Dear Mr. President,
DEMAND FOR PIGGERY COLONIES
The National Association of
Piggery Farmers deplore the
marginalization of the association
by the Federal Government. Our
pigs have been variously targeted
for elimination in several Northern states. Those Sharia
compliant states have refused to
allow our legitimate business to
thrive. Our members have been
hounded and harassed by the
Hisbah Police and others. We deplore this. The Federal Ministry of
Agriculture has paid deaf ears to
out plight. Our members demand
that the marginalization must
stop in order to forestall the
breakdown of Law & Order.
From the foregoing, NAPF thus
demand the following:
1. Equal opportunities for all
farmers and herders throughout
the federation
2. We demand for a 20 hectare Piggery Colony in the 19 Northern
States especially Katsina, Kano,
Kebbi, Sokoto, Yobe, Bauchi,
Niger, Borno and Gombe
3. We demand the National
Assembly to pass a law on Piggery Colonies in all Northern states
4. We demand that a section of
the Nigerian Army be employed in
the protection of pigs and pig
farmers
5. We demand the Federal Ministry of Agriculture to set
aside a budget for the
importation of Pig Feed from
Argentina
6. We demand a special
department of Piggery in the Federal Ministry of Agriculture. Dear Mr. President, we are a law
abiding association. We prevent
our members from being
provoked by the government-
backed Hisbah/Islamic horde
that aim to destroy our pig farmers. We shall not be involved
in attacking and killing the anti-
piggery people in the Sharia
States. If these things are not
done, we can no longer guarantee
that our members would not deliberately target our
transducers!

What about poultry owners?



I won't mind about 500 hectares of land in buhari's compound in daura for my birds to roam free.
