No need for long talk. All we need are entrepreneurs that would commercialize ranching and take control of the beef industry. No one will have to tell the herdsmen to modernize!

Daboomb:


If truly you are Fulani, then kudos to you.

Having said that, let us look at some of the issues the Fulani herdsmen should have attended to, instead of thinking Buhari will use veto power to save them:

1.) President Buhari himself has said that some of these herdsmen that murder people are foreigners from Niger, Sudan, TChad, e.t.c. Thus, the use of ranching will enusre that we know who these "foreigners" are, once we see anyone still openly grazing cows

2.) No one can say he does not know that these Herdsmen have unleashed terror on other Nigerians wherevere they go!
So, Myetti Allah should be asking itself whether it is okay to keep murdering other Nigerians in the name of rearing/roaming cattle or is th elife of cattle bigger than human life?
Myetti allah shold be at the forefront of finding a solution to these murders but so far, it is only interested in its cattle!

3.) How can any sane person say a particular breed of cattle is not suitable for ranching?
when you take cattle on a long grazing route form the North, down South and feed them on people's farm produce, is it not the same food that you will give them in a ranch? What exactly makes a particular breed of Cattle unsuitable for ranching?
Can Myetti Allah support this achaic reasoning with scientific research and proof?
Or they think they can just drop some silly claims and Buhari will empty our National treasury to them in the name of "importing ranchable-breeds" for them?

4.) If Myetti Allah says it cannot ranch, No problem. But they MUST KEEP their roaming habits within their state. It is as simple as that.
Nigeria is not the only country where cattle is bred so why must it be th eonly place where Cattle cannot be ranched?

5.) Every Governor is the Executive C-in-C of his state and the federal govt cannot impose its will on such issues that are not part of the exclusive list.
Myetti llah is trying to instigate Buhari into tking actions that would set the country on fire.
They should remember that Buhari will not be President for ever and that together (if these Easterners would ever grow sense! ) the West and the East and the S/South can easily vote out any Fulani president that mess-up with our collective will.
Even the Middle belt will join together as the core North has always use them and discard them like slaves.

6.) Fulani herdsmen must also realise that they do not have exclusive right to violence or carrying AK47 openly, in a country where such is not permitted by the constitution but the Fulani-dominated Armed Forces LOOK THE OTHER WAY while rushing to arrest any Southerner found carrying a weapon.

Enough is Enough. We will fight to dfend our territory from any murderous Herdsmen, be they Fulani or Foreigners.
The Herdsmen can keep their Meat to themselves, there wont be any open grazing anywhere in the South of Nigeria, including the Middle Belt.
Together we stand.
The IMPUNITY of the Fulani Herdsmen under this Buhari regime is gurranteed to ensure that the Southerners dont vote for him come 2019.

Daboomb:


Clamouring for Ranches is not because of shortage of Meat, my friend!
It is to checkmate the murderous acts of these terrorist herdsmen who murder indigenes at will, destroy their crops with impunity and cuase security risk with grazing cattle across express ways and in the cities, even in broad daylight.
It is an achaic tradition that is long overdue for aboloshment.

if Meat is your problem, some states are importing it already.

kaleam:
I'm also a fulani, but if I were d president, I would have ordered for it to happen, and use the airforce to bomb any offender...

how can you reject ranching when your people are out there looking for trouble.

Allowing headsmen to roam about is a threat to national peace and security...

oya, my people, come and insult me but I remain fulani and won't ever support headsmen.

Fulani won’t accept ranching — Miyetti-Allah


THE Fulani in Nigeria have said they will not accept cattle ranching because the country’s geographical location was not suitable for it.



It’s caused by strangers fuelled by politicians, religious leaders – Miyetti Allah


Besides, the Fulani said the species of cows they had, as subsistence livestock farmers, were not good for ranching in the country, saying they could only be confined to ranching if their livestock were replaced with breeds suitable for it.

According to them, the laws are being used as campaigns by some people to win votes in 2019 elections.

Addressing newsmen, yesterday, in Abuja, through their socio-cultural association under the aegis of Miyetti-Allah Kautal Hore, the Fulani insisted that events in history showed that ranching was not practicable in Nigeria and to this end, urged the Federal Government to immediately stop state governments from enacting anti-open grazing laws.

Alhassan insisted that Benue State government breached the constitution by stopping open grazing, given that the River Benue Basin, its tributaries and lakes were under the control of the federal government.

“Again, very fundamentally,the River Benue and the tributaries and also the international routes and roads that pass through Benue don’t belong to Benue State Government, they belong to the Federal Government. Benue State Government has no jurisdiction over River Benue, its tributaries, the lakes, the river basins, they are all federal government’s. So how do you now start to legislate to say ‘you are going to stop access to those natural resources?’

“Between January and and early May,is when pastoralists move to the river basins because that is the peak of dry season and most of the rivers pastoralists use to water their animals dried up and they now move towards the River Benue.

By their low IQ and stone age reasoning, you shall know them. Buhari D Vegetable has spoken, after all he is their grand patron.

If you value the lives of your unborn generation, support "Anti Open Grazing Law."
