Benue State governor, Samuel Ortom has said that there is no alternative to the ranching law enacted by the Benue state government to regulate livestock business. Eyes Of Lagos reports that, He stated this in Makurdi, while briefing newsmen shortly after a meeting with the state and zonal leadership of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, MACBAN. According to the Ortom, the ranching law was the collective decision of Benue people, stressing that he lacked the powers even as governor to reverse or make adjustments to it. He disclosed that MACBAN had requested for more time to enable them adjust and conform with the law while promising them that the law would be implemented with a human face and that was being done. Governor Ortom noted that while the law was being implemented, discussions between MACBAN and Benue State Government would continue with a view to fashioning out ways of ensuring peace between farmers and herdsmen in the state. He stated that the main objective of the meeting was the arrest and confiscation of some cattle in breach of the ranching law, saying the State Government had agreed to release the cattle to their owners after the payment of fines as stipulated by the law. North Central zonal chairman of MACBAN, Alhaji Danladi Chiroma said they were ready to obey the Open Grazing Prohibition and Ranches Establishment Law and to cooperate with the Benue State Government to expose criminal elements responsible for the current crisis.

Continue to defend your people no matter the pressure from Fulani powers, Ortom.

Its a good thing that you are sticking with the voice of your people irrespective of the pressures.

At least you're proving that you can do more than wheel barrow issuing

The Governor is consistently right.

Ortom has so far displayed strength of a good leadership. Despite pressure from killer herdsmen and their supporters in high places

Idiota

Ortom is not letting up.

what point are you trying to prove ?

No alternative!

Rather than roam around with 200 cows that produces 1 litre of milk daily, it is better to have 40 that are ranched and each producing 25 litres daily.

That is exactly what Buhari is doing. When Benue people visited him in Abuja few days after the New Year killings, he shamelessly told them to "go and accommodate your fellow country men."

When he visited Makurdi some few days ago, he said he don't understand why Benue is refusing to coexist with others.

He has never hinted on the issue of ensuring justice for the people of Benue. It is so strange!

I hope Fulani herdsmen wont attack another community over this Ortom comments
