truely this our presido value cow more than the citizens,

assuming cows feed on flesh, he can slaughter humans and feed them to the cows.

I concur

Food don land for the boys.

Zero vision,no national priority if this is true.

This is sad. Placing cows as priority instead of humans

Aye me ooooo. We re truly finish! "It is finish"

One thing that causes violence between Fulanis and farmers is that Fulanis often claim their cows were stolen or eaten.

With the census, not only would we know the ACTUAL number of cows in this country, but possibly be able to trace every cow that enters in this country. This would not only reduce rustling, but also prevent cows from being stolen, and also ensure speedy prosecution of cattle rustlers.

And end violence in many parts of the country, and importantly end the whole crisis.

I don't support Fulani violence, or APC, or Buhari. I just like a good idea when I see one.

Also there is this


In other words, there is also a planning component to it.

Thing is, time we started planning our agricultural practice in this country.

N.B: If you quote me to insult me, I will report you to the moderators. No excuses.

am not getting you on this ... let’s assume they go ahead with their counting and get XYZ figures ,so are they going to be counting the cows every week to ascertain if new breeds of cows have infiltrated or what ??

From failed Ruga settlement plan to animals census, what a misplaced priority by PMB administration. Which way Nigeria??

As the article said...they want to use the census to help in developing polices around cattle farming...so that they would be able to see how many cattle there are in the country, and plan accordingly for eg feeding.

Countries like India, Pakistan and Uganda (Uganda has several tribes that herd cattle) have conducted suich censuses. Also several European countries have done same.

More info on methodology here:

This is shameful, why make cow a national issue...we can live without eating cow meat, we have a lot of more important issues to deal with.

Cow meat is bad for health, Nigerians should stop eating cow meat. Goat, chicken, pig are all better than cow meat.

Saw this on print media and thought it was a joke.. I'm beginning to see reason with the line of thought of those who call this country a zoo

if they read or not, this is a dead on arrival project. Animals are not that important for us to have a census on them!

Telkart19:


The animal census is to prevent cattle rustling...which is a major bone of contention between Fulani herdsmen and farmers...

If it reduces violence, it is a good idea.

Listen to yourself, imagine the amount of money to be spent while this is carried out and if one should die, will there be a death certificate. I have seen some Fulanis move with rams too, hope they will count that , including pigs that some farmers lose, hope it will be counted

Under buhari Nigeria should be renamed as cowgerian...

Lol, Cow Census,
This country self.

If the Animals are more than Human beings in the country, then we'll have to leave the country for the Animals.

Since they are jobless, they should come and count the fishes in my ponds.

Racoon:
Abeg who did Nigeria offend with its present crop of leaders?

I have never see this kind of leaders before....so clueless and useless. They have nothing to offer apart from trash and bullshit.

Counting of cows would automatically stop cattle rustling? How? Did the herders complain about not knowing the numbers of cows in their stead?
Don't know why these government are only innovative when it comes to animals issues especially cows, if they channel the same energy towards human development. Things would have changed.
Disappointed to say the least.

Govt of the animals lol

Does this make sense to u?

i dnt see anything bad with the idea. He is trying tn prevent the loss of human lives thats all. Take a look at the statement without sentiment and prejudice. Since the killings are believed to be done as a result farmer and herders clashes and banditry they need to find the surest means to solve it before it gets out of hand. ruga wasnt a smart idea in a country like nigeria.

Kai... finally we are there. Buhari what won't be you tell us. Don't worry.... 4 years is by the corner.

Kuku kee me

I don't care about Buhari's love for animal. But is cow the only animal we have in Nigeria? He is not making things easy for people that voted him the second time. Abi how will they defend this now?

though, I voted the nomad in 2015,
I retraced my steps when I discovered that the satanic /redundant coupist ain't got nothing tangible to offer!


this damn shithole urgently needs a sane and sound president!

When exactly did Fulani business become governments major concern .
I would like to see the tax payments of all these Alhajis and politicians behind these cow rubbish!
Farmers buy fertilizer, in most cases rent a vacant land, collect loans and have to repay, but when it comes to Fulanis, if it's not free colonies it's radio stations or free vet services.
A country where her citizens are being enslaved all over the world, our priority can't seem to pass cattle.
Can't say I blame you
You have never seen how life is supposed to be outside Nigeria,
You think Buhari's children would graduate in peace if London has herdsmen / Farmers conflict.

Nigeria last had a census in 2006 yet the present govt dont deemed it fit to had another one done to get near accurate demographic date for national planning & development.

All the useless Buhari govt cares for is animal husbandry or the Fulanization agenda.Abeg who did Nigeria offend with its present crop of leaders?

Buhari is the only problem, not crop of leaders
