What exactly is wrong with having cattle colonies?
It is wrong because their job is a private one and it doesn't need government intervention.If they want to give lands to herdsmen then those rearing pigs,goat and others deserve colonies.

That's exactly what some of us have been saying.

Unfortunately, our leaders lack ideas/creativity (leadership quality). All they know how to do is ' to collect salary'.

Very very bad of us as a people.

Cattle rearing is a business. Herdsmen are businessmen. So why would they be given special concession in another man's land and backed up by law? If so be the case, government should set up fishing colonies for my fish farming brothers and any other business we choose.

Yeye people, seeking ways of land grabbing. To imagine that that old stupid Audu Ogbe, is a willing tool in the hands of aboki. All for a morsel of bread, he has sold even his brial space in his village.

THE ONLY KNOWN THING MORE DANGEROUS THAN A NUCLEAR POWER PLANT IN YOUR LAND OR NEIGHBORHOOD IS THIS:
Fulani Herdsmen Cattle Colonies or Grazing Reserves, (according to old histories) has always turned to Caliphate or Local Government Area. They will soon produce religious leaders then ask for their local government in with time and daggers.

In the North, The States with Christians as their Political Leaders, at State Level are as follows :
1. Adamawa State, Deputy Governor.
2. Taraba State, Governor.
3. Benue State, Governor and Deputy.
4. Plateau State, Governor and Deputy.
5. Kaduna State, Deputy Governor
6. Kogi State, Deputy Governor.
7. Gombe State, Deputy Governor.
Coincidentally, with the exception of Kogi and Gombe State, all these States are battling with the Fulani Herdsmen killings.
And the States with Christians Governors are experiencing an all-out total war by the Fulani Hijadists.
A National Daily just reported that a Military Helicopter was sighted dropping arms to some favoured guys somewhere in Taraba State.
If the above is a coincidence, then is indeed a strange one.
Is high time we all stop seeing things using the lens of fiction.
This is not a fiction any longer. This is real, and a calculated plan.

To solve a problem it better to reach the roots. The breed of cattle in west Africa feeds on wet grass. That's why they have to move from place to place to get fresh grass.
Hence this breed cannot be ranched.
A long term solution would be a gradual replacement of this breed with another that feeds on dry grass. Those breeds can be ranched successfully.

The cow feed has to be sorted out before the issue of ranching otherwise colonies or ranches would tend to fail

you must consider peoples fear and sentiment before doing such a thing and if our government wants to diversify our economy with livestocks, they should establish it and employ people based on merit as of now what am seeing is nepotism.

The income goes to private pockets, governmemnt, federal, state or local government, has no business in donating land for a private business, that is what is wrong.

Incomes generated by filmmakers goes into private pocket but Jonathan gave them a $200million support. Incomes generated by cash crop and food crop farmers goes into private pocket but government still gives numerous grants and assistance to farmers. So, what is wrong in government providing assistance to cattle herders? Are they not Nigerians too? What we should be insisting on right now is for government to fine tune the cattle colony policy very well and pay adequately for the lands it intends to acquire from willing sellers and not an outright condemnation. The policy will start in states that are willing to provide land for the program. No state or individual is being forced to donate land. So I ask again, what is wrong with the policy?
Re: No To Cattle Colonies By Femi Falana. by ema2017: 10:42am On Jan 22, 2018
Government wants to provide ranches for the Cattles of the blood sucking herdsmen. Who provide land for the Cocoa, cassava, oilpalm, fish, goat,pig and poultry farmers. cattle farming is a private business, the govt does not own the business so why should various state provide land to rear cattle. this is injustice and wickedness. No area of agriculture is more important than the others. if govt wants to give cattle rearers land for range then they should also give to the Cocoa, cassava, oilpalm, fish, goat,pig and poultry farmers.

Cattle rearers are also equally entitled to soft loans and grants made available by govt to the agricultural sector, same thing applies to the entertainment industry you mentioned, these are grants and soft loans that govts makes available for different sectors.

No government has ever acquired properties for private businesses, maybe that is above you to understand.

Oh! Everything is wrong with it.
1. This means cattle owners will have hectares of lands in every states in the country on a platter of gold. The fulanis will settle in these areas with their families and as we know in the past, these people aren't peace and law abiding they take what they want.
2. There will be periods in which the cattle and herdsmen will cross boundaries of their colonies into other areas
3. What will happen to the jobless youths in the state whose lands are given away? Why not the FG have agricultural colonies in every states and employ the youths in the state work on cassava, vegetables and rice farms
4. Colonies is a threat to the security of the state. How do we know what is being harbored or kept in those colonies? It could be ammunitions, missiles, bombs etc. will the state government have the right to know what is happening in those colonies?
I can go on and on about your question on what is wrong about cattle colonies but I feel stupid already in trying to explain to you what you should have thought of or know

Audu ogbe isn't sabotaging any policy; he is just (intentionally or unknowingly) exposing his true intention and mission, which are focused on giving Fulani herdsmen a stronghold in every part of southern Nigeria

Re: No To Cattle Colonies By Femi Falana. by omonnakoda: 1:00pm On Jan 22, 2018
The term colony is correct but it should not be for Fulanis but all Nigerian's.
A better term would have been Ranch estates indiicating an exclusive ranch in zone.
If FG money is to be used there is nothing stopping Ondo state benefitting. They cannot say it must be for FulanI only, in fact it could be ONLY Ondo indigenes that are allocated.
As long as the states manage it fine.
It probably should be called livestock estate and those that want to keep pigs pythons or crocodiles as the case may be an do so.

My view was for state governors in the south to rather allocate land/loans to indigenes,to start their own ranching business.
