Jigawa state governor, Muhammad Badaru Abubakar has affirmed that the Ruga project as initiated by the president Muhammadu Buhari led administration was only suspended pending when all necessary measures are put in place.

Badaru, who described the Ruga project for herders as a right of those in the business and not a privilege as wrongly assumed, added that, either Ruga or Ranching, the aim is to improve the general well being of not only those in the business but the general public as well.

According to him, cattle rearing are businesses that provide jobs for millions of Nigerians guarantee food security and enhance income generation to governments at various levels.

The governor, while stressing that the imitative was part of the federal governments’ Ease of Doing Business agenda, added that, both local and international investors would want to invest in the livestock economic sector.

Badaru also noted that, Ruga or cattle Ranches is a project designed to improve cattle rearing practice in the country, with the aim of making it more profitable, more healthier, more peaceful and environmentally friendly.

“The Ruga project is not cancelled by federal government but suspended for the review and it will be implemented for the benefit of all Nigerians not only cattle rearers”.

In his submission, Badaru said these cattle herders are Nigerians and their business is legitimate, hence it is their civil right not privilege for the country to support and provide them with enabling environment for doing the business irrespective of their tribal or geographical affiliation.

Governor Badaru further promised to implement any project or policy that could help local or international businessmen do their businesses easily in Jigawa state.

there's enuf/massive land up North for their ROGUE/ RUGA..

I CONCUR

What happens to the concept of acquiring capital and buying fixed assets in a business? Assets like land for farming.


Is cow-herding a private business or some kind of national enterprise that generates money for taxpayers? Just like oil.

Yes, I understand farmers should be subsidized by the government, but that should be done constructively and responsibly for all farmers in the country. Including the ones(subsistence farmers), these animals are destroying their farmlands with their cattle.

no be only RUGA
Na LUGA

Keep it there in the North. A right indeed! The impunity is too much. One tribe over how many other tribes in Nigeria. It seems Buhari is going to be the end of Nigeria.

Ok

Rubbish talk

You cannot force states to gift out their lands. Has the Northern states gifted and any acenstral lands to southerners.

Rubbish talk I say again. No be only right, na left

Yes in Jigawa, Sokoto and Katsina States.

And you can use the whole two or three of the Local Governments of those States to perfect the Rights.

Silly Governor who doesn't even understand what everybody is talking about.

They don't want to understand all those business reguirements and finesse.

They want N100billion without requisition and order, just demand it from Buhari.

They want Lands in other climes, just ask Buhari for Presidential orders to get them.

They want AK47; just ask Buhari.

Foolish fool.
Ruga will kill all of you wicked politicians.

Rubbish talk, I say again. No be only righthands, na plus leftleges.

War is around the corner.

Buhari is fulfilling an age old prophecy concerning the disintegration of Nigeria.

Hmm

Cos am sure your own children are not herding cattle around Nigeria
