He is saying the truth,man...

I have been on Nairaland for close to 10 years. But this is the most sensible and sincere post from my fellow northern brother. The northern elites are the biggest problem of the north. They have decided that the poor must just depend on them. No part of this country has "the stinkingly rich few" like the North. Painfully, poverty is not decreasing here. What is wrong with ranching? I'll tell you.
1. Ranching "will increase expenses" for the affluent whose cows are being ranched (in reality, it won't).
2. The very intelligent Fulani's (believe me, they are) will have formal education, medicare and exposure, which will make the elites less happy. Why, you may ask? Because, they may compete with their Children or decedants over time.
For these reasons, the elites will continue to sacrifice the poor and uninformed masses, to their advantage. God will judge them.
Have you ever wondered why Buhari's daughters married in to the Indimi's family (& the other, a serving Governor?) Same case with Yar'adua's (his soul rest in peace) daughter?
Before I rest my case, I must encourage the young, enlightened northern youths to speak up, else their generation will remain slaves to these blood-sucking-for-wealth elites. #myonekobo

tesppidd:
The most reasonable write up I have read on the fulani herdsmen predicament.

Actually their worst enemies are the called owners who send these peasants out to cater for their cattle instead of encouraging the use of ranches.

This has gone on for decades now.

GavelSlam:


Explain the truth and relate it to what I said.

Some of you simply love to oppose for the sake of it.

GavelSlam:



I am saying there is an opposition to this by various states already.

THIS IS WHAT HE SAID AND IT PROBABLY IS THE TRUTH AND YOU KNOW IT.

Why can't you give them portion of lands for ranching than walking length and breadth of the country destroying farms.

Or better still, you don't want them to be educated like you so you can continue to use them to play the game of politics to the advantage of the minority elite of the north.

GavelSlam:


Why not kill them already?

Agreed, they need to modernise at the same time the request for allocation of Ranching Land is being rejected across the country .

mexxmoney:

Not in the core north where they have their kith and kin . there is no opposition to it there and they have enough land there. They should go and use it

Opoki:

It is a crazy idea to allocate a land to Fulani?

When will the government start allocating land to pig and catfish farmers?

i thought the igbos are good business man and takes opportunities on all kind of trade ans business. since the funali are leggy behind.

selling contaminated grazing animals that feeds on bacterial that doesn't meet healthy standard.

cattle farming is a big business. in the USA cattle are taking to slaughter houses after 3years with massive flash.

well taking care of with access to clean water and feeds that meet up with health standard. why the igbo can not owned up ranches to over take this people over the years, i still don't understand.

ifyan:
Hmm

Why did you guys want to play the victim card.

Did you guys notice something. Before any attack,their tribes men are of it.

So tell if this isn't a well coordinated attack not just from those blood sucking animals but from high position

Oboi the Cattles much ohh

Sagay212:


don't you have lands in your region? must you leave the north to another state to rear cattle? and if you must rear in other states, why must you be asking for free land, don't you make money from the sales of the cows?

lastmessenger:
Sometimes I wonder why it is so difficult for these herder's to embrace the modern method of cattle rearing instead of wondering about the whole country destroying farmlands which in turn results to unnecessary clash.
This herdsmen issue can only be solved by a serious government who Will put its feet on the ground and say enough is enough. If you don't won a ranch,then you are not allowed to rear cows.But this present administration has proven beyond reasonable doubt that they are not different from the nomadic herders themselves.

ELKHALIFAISIS:
Oga stop playing sympathetic card... This is how they done it in sane country

GavelSlam:


And why are they trekking down south?
