I don't know when other Yoruba speaking States will start to get it right like the Ondo people..(thank God for my Ekiti indigenes too)... this is what Ogun, Kwara, Osun, Lagos, Oyo and other Southern States ought to have done many many years back but they keep crying to one mumu FG that careless...... Spread the operation stop Cattle grazing around the States. Kudos to Mimiko.

Cc: Lalasticlala over to you

They're have one thing in common. They're all Muslim governors.

tochimas:
didn't you hear tha task force was formed? You think the task force won't be equipped ? In my opinion ,they should equip the task force more than Nigerian army, with sofiscated weapons, armoured car. Heavy artillery, machine guns. they are worse than bokoharam, they should also include air patrol oh. It's time we start to take somethings serious.

That is a pipe dream my dear.
My question is "What if the herdsmen refuse to obey the task force?"
And what will the task force do if the herdsmen attack one obscure community in Ondo far from where the Taskforce operates and wipe it off the map?

Meanwhile, forget arming them with sophisticated weapons. The FG will never approve such a measure against the herdsmen for the state.

Dollyak:
This just made my day. I think they should go one step further by banning them completely from SW region.

You are the wisest in nairaland. SS, SE should follow too.

Nothing is wrong with them.

Blame the communities that tolerate their nonsense even with the fore knowledge that they are marauders.

If the next time Fulani herdsmen approach a community and the community fires up a barbeque grill for beef suya, the menace will stop. The government has proved that they cannot defend her communities. It is very foolish of the communities to turn into sitting ducks to be slaughtered by the Fulani herdsmen.

Wrong!
They simply go to the nearest barrack and call their fulani soldier brothers who raid the community and kill the residents as a lesson. It happened in Rivers State sometime under Obasanjo or Yar Adua presidency.

lol

I agree with you on this one

Good development.

Here in Ogun, government are also considering to ban those fulani useless normadic activities.

I will advice other SW states, SS and SE regions to follow suites. Enough of their useless encroachment.

Is Ambode is Muslim also?

His allegiance is to Tinubu. He cannot sneeze without Tinubu telling him to.

Etche.
The year is what I am not certain. You can independently confirm. Don't just take my words for it.

PiperAlpha:

But d fact remains that he is christain. Mind u, ogun state is also taking a step to curb normadic activities and and expect other states to do the same. Enough of these fulani encroachment.

ChoCandyDiamond:

This is one Nigeria,no government have right to do so,free movement of people and goods

Your freedom of movement should not endanger the lives of others...

Oh my Goodness may God bless Ondo State people and Ekiti people you guys from that region has always stand out among the yorubas as far as I know.

Pls not only ban them pls ondo people pls dont even give them passage through your land they are animals God forsaken goats mistakenly created by God.

These silly goats has be troubling everybody and their almighty Mr know it all saint Buhari kept mute what a weird situation.

If they refuse to listen poison all the grass and water along their route is as simple as that, there are poison very sophiscated ones that will do that without trace their useless cow will perish in thousands and if they mistakenly drink the water they will go 6 feet beneath the soil same as there useless cow SIMPLE, I have no mercy or sympathy for these people

Ban them, fulani no longer needed after all they are not even Nigeria in the first place.

Hmmm One useless president i know is not gonna be happy with this news

UrbanMystique:
Fulani herdsmen have been wrecking havoc before buhari became the president. Stop making it about him.

They were in d making then but massively empowered now that their patron is d president.

Good move. Since the FG has failed to make meaningful intervention, state governments would protect their citizens.

klax:

Ondo State Bans Activities Of Fulani Nomadic Herdsmen, Threatens To Arrest Defaulters
Ondo State Commissioner for Environment Sola Ebiseni made the disclosure in Akure at a stakeholder meeting to deliberate on the constant clashes between farmers and the Fulani herdsmen in Ondo State.


Ondo State Commissioner for Environment Sola Ebiseni made the disclosure in Akure at a stakeholder meeting to deliberate on the constant clashes between farmers and the Fulani herdsmen in Ondo State.

Ebiseni said the State government had already given the Fulani herdsmen a one week ultimatum to evacuate their cattle from the main town of Akure.

He declared that any Fulani nomadic herdsman grazing cattle at night would also be considered thieves and handed over to the law enforcement agencies.

"We don't want to see the Fulani herdsmen grazing cattle within the streets of Akure, the State capital,” Mr. Ebiseni said. "Animals are not reared on the road in our own towns. They are allowed in the outskirts of the town.”

A SaharaReporters correspondent reported that a monitoring task force team from the Ministry of Environment in the State has been mandated to ensure strict compliance of the order.

"The team is also saddled with the responsibility of dealing decisively with any erring cattle rearers that would flout such order from the State government,” our correspondent reported.

Additionally, the State government resolved that cattle dealers and marketers should register as an association or body with proof of identification. The government claimed that this would help identify cattle rearers who incite trouble and violence.

Among the other major areas forbidden for Fulani herdsmen to graze their cattle in the State included: Oba ile Road, Ode-ilekun Road, Barracks/Ondo Road, Airport/Owo Road, Adofure/Idanre Road, including all permanent residential estates.

During the meeting, Akin Olotu, an environmental activist and chairman of the Agricultural Commodities Association in Ondo State, called for a proper synergy between the States in the federation and the federal government in establishing cattle ranches for the benefit of Fulani nomadic herdsmen.

Mimiko has displayed great maturity in curbing their evil activities.
I hope other states emulate this

The above measure wouldn't be effective in my opinion, considering the amount of mayhem being unleashed by these cattle peddling terrorists!

It should be something like this;

He declared that any Fulani nomadic herdsman grazing cattle at night (even daytime too) would also be considered thieves and shot on sight.

YORUBA RONU


For how long are we going to remain a COWARD in our land? Many innocent lives are dying daily because of our cowardness.

HAUSAS and YORUBA fight in Lagos.

Imagin an insult in our land.

If in SOUTH EAST they have MILLITANT Speaking for their land,

If in NORTH EAST they have BOKO HARAM

If in NORTH WEST they have AREWA YOUTHS and LOCAL HUNTERS

If in SOUTH SOUTH they have MASSOB/IPOB speaking for them

Where is our OPC in SOUTH WEST.

Are they only in our land for election campaign or federal contract?

#whowillsaveus.

it baffles me too how we Yoruba as a people have allowed too much fun, partying and entertainment to have made us gone soft. History has it that our ancestors were fearless warriors, they were always waging wars and conquering territories over territories, a lot of nations paid royalties to them, from Nupe to Dahomey to Bariba, even the Ashanti used to call them to wage war in alliance, but today it is clear opposite. The truth is that a lot of the Yoruba people have gone soft, I can still point to few groups in the Yorubaland who are still born warriors, like the Ife youth fighters, Modakeke warriors, trust no Hausa or anybody can mess with them, even myself as an Ekiti I am not a coward, Ekitis and Ijesha are rarely cowards. I think the bottom line is that the Yoruba elders should go appease the spirit of the Alaafin Aole who placed a curse on the entire Yoruba race before he died due to the treachery of Afonja who sided with the Fulani to help secede from the already weak Oyo empire, Otherwise we could just continue to be clueless as a people and we continue to be point of ridicule by others. ****** for anyone who wants to read the details of the curse by Alaafin Aole on the entire Yoruba race, it is contained in Yorupedia, it is online for all to read.

What is wrong with this hausa-fulani people . Is it because the president is from there region ?

lols,we produce more presidnt dan any oda region so dt talk abt is it becos presido is from our side

You are the wisest in nairaland. SS, SE should follow too.

Gbam, these nomads are equally wrecking havoc in the South East, the nomadic method of pasturing livestock is an ancient practice that should have gone away with the stone age..

Not only are they constituting a nuisance in major urban areas and villages, we have to remember that these cows are not vaccinated, they carry diseases and parasites defecating and urinating on peoples crops.

Someone once told me Naija mans immune system is well fortified due to the harsh environment he lives in.. If this was in a different country, I bet you most of there citizens will be dead by now..

The North has vast arid land mass more than any other part of Nigeria, why can't the build ranches and feed their livestock there, that's how its done everywhere else.. Enough is enough abeg..

This is good news. I love this. Abeg Rivers State should follow suit

first of all! it takes an independent non puppet governor to rise to the challenge,
secondly, #abrokenbottlehasnonmekwatarism!
