Why FG Called Off Ruga Settlement Plan – Governor Umahi by Mrakeli: 9:47pm On Jul 03, 2019
Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State and chairman of the South-East Governors Forum has said the suspension of the Ruga settlement plan was because of its lack of consistency.

Recall that President Muhammadu Buhari had earlier suspended his administration’s plan to build Rural Grazing Area (RUGA) settlements in some states across Nigeria.

Mr Umahi, who kicked against the insinuations trailing the federal government’s alleged plan for establishment of Ruga settlements earlier

Mr Umahi explained that the South-east zone did propose a deal with the members of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association (MACBAN) as a panecea to achieving lasting peace between farmers and herdsmen.

However, briefing State House correspondents at the end of the National Economic Council meeting presided over by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo in Abuja, Governor Umahi said, “the suspension is owing to lack of consistency with the NEC and FG approved national livestock transformation plan, which has programme of rehabilitation of internally displaced persons (IDPs) resulting from the crisis and development of ranching in any willing state.

“The NEC says it is not compulsory and any state willing is required to put up a development plan towards the implementation in line with the NEC program based on the challenges inherent there.”


The meeting had in attendance, governors of Ebonyi, Dave Umahi, Plateau, Simon Lalong, Kebbi, Atiku Bagudu and Adamawa Deputy Governor, Bala Ngilari.

There is no such thing as clashes between farmers and herders. The terrorists who come from West African countries and who go by the name, herders are the ones causing mayhem in all parts of the country. Ranching will not solve the problem. Deal with them once and for all, period!

The reason we have an explosive population is because of our open borders with Niger and Chad.... Most of these guys who shine shoes and we call 'aboki' and the ones who push cart selling water (water vendors) are not Nigerians.... About two of them who are my customers and I constantly buy water from are not Nigerians, they've told me themselves. But most of them have PVC and they vote in our elections, they are even considered more Nigerian than we Southerners because of their ability to mix up and camouflage as Hausas.
These menace of Fulani will continue for as long as possible until something is done about our borders in the North.

I don't trust that Umahi of a man, still watching him with 2 eyes open.
Why should he attend the meeting and be their spokes man?.
His romance with Miyetti Allah calls for questions.
Flash back Miyetti Allah chose him for 2023 president cos he dance to their tone.

Ruga is wrong period.

Any Program that does not directly involve the 36 State Governments of the people, by the people and for the people, irrespective of Parties, is doomed.

So many inconsistency about this Ruga issue. The government should just cancel it outright.


Simple thing to do is just place a ban on open grazing starting from a particular period and mandate the herders to go into ranching going forward. Why is that so difficult?

It was, it is and will continue to be a land grabbing move.

No sane person will support it.
