The Northern Governor’s Forum (NGF) had said it will work with relevant stakeholders to ensure registration of Fulani herdsmen entering Nigeria at the border.

Chairman of the Forum, Alhaji Kashim Shettima of Borno, disclosed this to newsmen at the end of the forum’s meeting in Kaduna, on Tuesday.

Shettima said most of the herdsmen were immigrants from Senegal and Mali.

“We also mapped out new strategies that would be used by the local Fulani herdsmen to rear their cattle without having to move across the country,” he said.

He said the forum is working to ensure that every Nigerian could conveniently settle in any part of the country without suffering any form of discrimination.

“Some of the past governors of Kano State, like the late Sabo Bakin Zawo, from Niger, and Ibrahim Shekarau, from Borno, were not indigenes technically, but were assimilated and even attained the highest office in Kano,” he observed.

Shettima expressed hope that the issues in the northern part of the country will soon be solved.

And it continues- Fayose the fearless governor, the one who is man enough to be a governor, warned us but some tribal slaves and some geopolitical slaves called him names.


I tell you a time is coming when we all will wish we had the likes of Fayose 50 as a Nation.

So una just they wake up, what u people should have done since. Until when the situation don worse before una go react.

To begin why haven't we been doing this. They are selling animals that can possibly have sickness. There needs to be a way to tracknowledge these animals.

Our porous borders have always been issue and probably reason why national ID not a hard fought issue.
