Mixed reactions continue to trail the decision of the south west governors to launch a regional security unit named “Amotekun”.

The loudest protests have been coming from the Fulani who feel the security unit will discriminate and target...

If they do it they will be broke. Nothing more.

Fulanis are not the only meat producers in Africa but we are the only customers that patronize them.

Tell them to take a month leave abeg.

truly they will be broke

I don't eat beef, the hopeless abooki can strike to heaven or dance to hell, it's none of my business.

Fish gang, gather here

If the price to be paid in order to eat cow meat is the blood of our people then let the Fulani perish with their god forsaken meat and milk.

there are different kinds of meat in the mkt.
Snake meat go sweet pass if na lie ask lalasticlala

Good riddance.
Meat is not food.
Meat especially beef is one of the most dangerous items being consumed in Nigeria.
It is responsible for heart attack, high blood pressure, cancer, low immunity, and premature death.


As to the issue of milk, Fulanis have no input to the milk being produced in Nigeria unless
you count those highway hawkers.

Nothing will happen , Nigeria doesn't even use their milk for anything don't be deceived , most milk in Nigeria are lecithin based substitutes being marketed as milk and as for their low quality beef Nigerians will not miss it ..

Lol the south is their main market. They dont come down south for the exercise. People can essily replace beef with chicken, pork, fish and probably goat meat.

If Beef import bans were lifted who would even bother with them? I'd happily take USDA beef from the Americans. Nigerians gladly import fish without issues.

Poultry farmers in the West will smile to the bank.

Fish farmers will smile to the bank.

Snail farmers will smile to the bank.

Pork farmers will smile to the bank.

Goat and sheep farmers will smile to the bank.

Rabbit and guinea pig farmers will smile to the farm.

Grass cutter farmers will smile to the bank.

I can't remember the last time I had cow meat even when I have it in abundance.

It is only the living that eat beef, the dead don't eat beef. It better to be alive than to eat beef. Fulani's, to hell with your useless beef, many families has been wiped out and generation erase because of your useless beef....

Imaging the impetus!!! Fulani please go ahead with two years strike.

There are other alternatives aside beef in fact I learnt red meat isn't good for the body

This is there down fall in Nigeria

Keep deceiving yourself. Mumu. Do you think it is easy to replace a long term source of supply for 200 million people? WHO IS IT IN AFRICA that can replace that supply? Go on, tell us.

They've not fed their own 10 million to 20 million populations, but it is NIGERIA that they will feed?

And at what cost? Or you think it costs nothing to export to Nigeria? Are you ready to pay 6 to 10 times more for your meat? What supply chain infrastructure will the new sellers use to replace the Fulani one? Do you even know what supply chain means, and the logistics of replacing a supply chain serving 200 million people, assuming you could actually find the new source of supply?

You people just hate out of stupidity.

I REALLY WISH those Fulani herders you hate so much can just go on strike for 3 MONTHS. Let us see where you idiots will get your beef and pomo and shaki, and roundabout from. Don't work to reach an amicable solution you hear? One day your hatred will show you an empty plate.

Fulani meat and milk need to be gone for a year and not one week.
There will be peace, security, and rapid evolution of an alternative and possibly better source.

Please have Fulani take their meat some other places, now.

It's crazy how much trouble Nigerians go through over meat they hardly eat per capita. Nigerians eat less beef and meat even compared some of their African counter parts and can't even boast of having large beef exports. Lol the stats are abysmal if you looked at milk production in Nigeria. You wonder why these guys feel the need to beat their chest.

There's a reason they and need government protectionism. If they want to see how little they matter tell Buhari to lift the beef import ban.

Your point is actually against any 'Fulani strike', as the low meat consumption means the situation will get TERRIBLE for our meat consumption and nutritional intake if the supplies are further reduced.

You have a strange logic that says ''you have little food anyway, so it won't hurt you much if we take away the little you have''.

Weird indeed.

Oh, and lifting the ''beef import ban'', to replace local beef simply means you'll pay a minimum 5 times more for beef than you currently do.

Good luck paying for your shaki and pomo in dollars!

Thanks for the lecithin info. I am not sure many Nigerians know that.

Hausa used to produce WARA in good quantity. I think they call it cottage cheese.

Get this, Mr Bank Smiler. We do NOT have even 1/20th of the number of trained people we need in those items you mentioned, to feed 200 million people. And you CANNOT create them overnight.

It will take YEARS for those sectors to meet current meat demands of Nigeria, in the absence of beef.

You also need distribution infrastructure, which is currently underdeveloped (to put it mildly.. more like non existent ) for ALL those alternatives you listed.

All that will happen is that those alternatives will become hugely expensive and beyond the reach of the masses.

It's so easy to sit in your parlour, fed fat on cow meat, talking rubbish about how 'easy' it is to replace this source of protein for 200 million people. Employ your gray matter and you'll see it is a huge and stupid gamble.

No the point is your wailing is stupid. There's alternatives sources of meat like everyone with common sense pointed out. Nigerian meat consumption wont charge especially since you're allowed to import them live anyway. Then there's option to eat more fish.

Lol it's funny how you come up dumb imaginary figures. Nobody going to pay 5 times more for beef. The price of beef world drop steadly with increased supplies actually. Beef commodity prices change significantly because Nigerian demand worldwide. Dont you know people already buy fish, wheat and other commodities in dollars why are you worried?

You are clearly an economic illiterate. When the main source of meat is removed, the alternatives will become scarcer and more expensive. That is basic Economics 101.

And YES we will pay MORE than 5 times more for beef if we had to import it.

Do you think foreign beef exporters are paid in Naira? Where do you get this idea that increased Nigerian demand would make foreign beef prices fall? Increased demand leads to higher prices until equilibrium is reached between demand and supply.

Please, go and study market economics and international commodity pricing before posting anything further.

Lol you're you're a basket case. If the import ban is removed and they go on strike it evens out. Nothing major will happen because alternative exist. Lol you're insane if you believe that beef will 5 times more expensive. You dont have any evidence to back such a dumb claim up. The price of imported fish, wheat or commodity isn't 5 times more expensive than locally produced ones. You cant name any agricultural good that is.

Increased Nigerian demand wont have significant effect on world beef prices. Increased supplies coming from all over the world will make beef more expensive. In your mind an imported catfish is 5 times more than a locally produced one. Lol you're wailing is dumb.

So according to these Fulanis, we should continue to die to eat meat?

I beg to hell with all Fulani Herdsmen.
They want us to die bc of meat

all they know is violence & cows

you are either Hausa, Fulani or yoruba Moslem...the trinity of menace. The trio group responsible for every issue Nigeria is facing... always defending rubbish

I've always thought you're Yoruba but now I know better.
I'm not one of those who encourage the boycott of Beef because of the fulani militia rampage because I know that it will not really stop the attacks. A frontal confrontation will end the madness.
As for beef consumed in Nigeria, a lot still come from non fulanis both in Nigeria and outside Nigeria. Fulanis are not the only animal farmers in northern Nigeria and neighbouring countries. They're simply the biggest of them all with a wider nomadic culture.

Common sense eludes you. Logical and clear thinking are herculean tasks for you.

I don't need your term paper, I'm not your high school teacher. Save it for him.

In your pin-sized mind, it's only the Fulanis that rear cattle in all of Nigeria.

The borders have been closed now upwards of 6 months, rice farmers are smiling to the bank and people are learning to love the local rice again.

You dey there dey mumu.

Go and prostrate to the Fulanis because you want to eat beef now. Who's stopping ya?
