GavelSlam:bro there are reasonable ones who do legitimate business and even have settlement but there are others who don't bloody care about where the cows feed. To them you are a threat. So having ranches is d logical thing to do anywhere in the world. Then nobody is harassed unnecessarily. How can that be so difficult to comprehend. You don't expect me to part wif my farmland cuz a fulani. Man wants to. Feed cows do you? |

The question is: are you aware that the herdsmen allow their cattle to go into people's farm and eat up their crops, hence the reason for all this issues and killings. as for u trying to relate the issue at hand with the igbo ppl, i dont have to talk about that with u cus u seem to be guided by sentiments and not facts.

Are you kidding me? Is someone BLOODY KIDDING ME? Is someone trying to tell me that these guys deserve to roam about fattening their cows on my land and my farm produce, without paying rent for ranch, and will still end up expecting me to BUY the meat from their produce? Meaning, they paid ZERO to process their market wares and I'LL PAY to use that which destroyed me. Whereas if I have a shop, I'll pay rent, pay dues, pay for security, pay TAX, before someone maybe buys off a single item from me. How does the government help me in that instance? This is very painful. There was indeed a country. 1 Like |

I think the real question is: Who is arming and training these herdsmen to the point that they have become so adept at killing, and sacking whole communities??! when did these 'infidels' become so sacred that even the military, dss, and police have kept mute over their activities??! Dear President, your silence on this matter, and overt outspokenness on Ipob issue, is beyond embarrassing, and worthy of resignation!!! 2 Likes |

Can you ranch or do you think the country where the grass will be imported from allow cattles to roam about? Oh God of heaven, how I wish you will come offline down south and talk like this.. you would be stabbed before you finish talking. I curse the day God made me a Nigeria and sharing a country with demented fools like you is the greatest mistake my creator did me.

veraponpo: Really? And so the farmers do not deserve more protection and assistance from govt? Those farmers borrow money to rent tractors and buy seedlings. Others even borrow to pay labourers and buy fertiliser. Then they spend multitude of man hours tilling the land, watering the soil and praying for a good harvest. They hope to pay back their loans, once there is a good harvest. Unfortunately, their hopes are cut short by some lousy cows who come in, trample upon their farms and render it desolate. Who compensates the farmer, for all he has lost??! Their lives are even further brutalised by the killer herdsmen that ensure those farmers lose not just their crops, but lives, limbs and sometimes family members. I repeat: Who compensates the farmer, for all he has lost??! Angelfrost: You have said it all!! 1 Like |
Re: Herdsmen Deserve More From Government - FG by laudate: 2:20pm On Jan 09, 2018 |
NaijaEfcc:Good question! ! Let us hope someone can provide realistic answers. If govt wanted a solution to this menace, it would have provide one, long ago. The cow rearers should find food for their cows within their own local govt areas in the far North, and they should stop their cows from straying into the Middle Belt and the South. It is like a person who buys a car for taxi purposes. Whose job is it to ensure the car is serviced, fueled and properly maintained? Isn't it the job of the owner of the car? 1 Like |

nnachukz:I don't think you guys are ready for solution, an end to killings. When you do, you will stop turning this issue around. Crying everyday on social media, yet against all available options being put forward by the government. If you guys continue this way, you are most likely to be the one who should be preparing his family for herdsmen invasion. Because you guys don't want solution, you are enjoying the attention. |

2sexynet:Who is supporting evil here? Make your point. Do away with cursing. And if you must curse, just make do with what your family members can carry. Most of you are not interested in solution and peace, but to just rant and antagonise every movement at finding lasting solution. Some solutions are practical while some are non practical, it is just a pity many of you can't differentiate. |
Re: Herdsmen Deserve More From Government - FG by laudate: 3:44pm On Jan 09, 2018 |
maasoap: No, you are the one who does not get it. If only the Fulani herdsmen who perpetrate these killings were rounded up promptly and prosecuted, there would have been a rapid decline in the number and frequency of attacks they inflicted on towns, villages, farmers and families, in the Middlebelt and further South. Whenever such communities organise vigilante groups to defend themselves and their residents against the herdsmen, they are labelled as aggressors by the govt agencies. Is that fair? It is the responsibility of the cattle owners to create ranches and provide food for their livestock. Afterall, goat rearers, poultry owners, horse breeders, rabbit rearers and catfish breeders do the same. Why is it so different for cattle rearers? You need to see the havoc they have wreaked on Middle belt communities. The simple solution is to fix a tracking device or microchip on each of these cows which contains info on the name of the owner and location of their HQ. Then any cow that goes on rampage, can be traced back to the owner, and the farmer can get his compensation for any crops destroyed on his farm. Enough of petting the cattle rearers and their murderous Fulani herdsmen. 1 Like |

All contributors have a point depending on how a piece of news extract devoid of appropriate surroundings has impacted on them. But Audu Ogbeh is not a low level minister appointed as a crony to Buhari, he is a very intelligent man. This news piece that triggered all source of commentary including insulting this minister is , I can imagine, that area in journalism where a topic is so presented to attract undue attention and to sensationalise. In the emotional state of the state concerned with gory picture and strongly worded warnings going round the social media,(I am not at all against these outburst), the minister will not come and just make a statement just like that. There is a background missing.Not every politician is like the model that we all are apt to insult for careless statements. Audu Ogbe pass that na! You guys shld stop bickering at each other na Nairaland dey try to keep its blog vibrant. |

jamjo: What a great idea!! Sambisa forest is said to be over 66,860 square kilometers, although some official documents included the Marguba Forest Reserve in the Sambisa Game Reserve. And the Fulani herdsmen are fully armed. So they don't need to fear any intrusion from Boko Haram sect. Sambisa forest is 18 times the size of Lagos – BBOG convener, Oby Ezekwesili 1 Like |

Wait are u sure these administration is not made up of animals?.... See bullshit talk. I guess Buhari asked the man to defend his kinsmen. Just pay condolence visits and condemn the killing and act fast to stop it instead of dishing out trash from ur mouth to justify evil. If ur loved ones were involved in the killing would you say the same thing Mr Minister.... Our leaders are devils I swear. |
Re: Herdsmen Deserve More From Government - FG by jamjo: 5:21pm On Jan 09, 2018 |
laudate: The minister said the government has not done a thing for them, this is the opportunity he has to do something, there is lake Chad if the federal government can budget some money for irrigation from lake Chad into the sambisa we NIGERIANS we not mind at all that will allow them to grow grasses during dry season. |
Re: Herdsmen Deserve More From Government - FG by igboodoo: 5:46pm On Jan 09, 2018 |
To positively add to this topic from a clear mind, let naija 'security' do their work, let Minister try to see that this does not happen again by garnering ideas that shld be presented to ensure that there is no escuse for the herdsmen to recourse to this type of savagery again. but he must go further. He must be courageous enough to pressure the powers that be to adopt all reasonable and lasting solution proferred. He shld then go ahead and resign if GOVT decides to play politics with this issue that has caused so much human life and will continue if nobody has the guts to turn it into that sore in the wrong place on buharis something and his security chiefs. If Audu Ogbeh with all his knowledge and respect which he effuses cannot force Buhari to adopt measures guaranteed to stop future rambo killings and a reasonable tailored out solution including the provision of this grazing ground/subsidy, then we will be in trouble for a long time. However I also worry, to be honest, if all is incentivied to contain the herdsmen with subsidy et al, an argument may still come up, vis: a herdsman who never went to school cannot be confined. It is against the nature of a herdsman in the traditional setting. So if that is the case and since even oyibo herdsman have all upgraded and repackaged we must elevate the herdsman like wise. Compulsory education must be introduced with the confinement . If we fail to include this the fulani oligarchs will continue to use them as their militants to chance the rest of Nigeria. |

maasoap:Can you listen to yourself? Land is sold and bought by any that wants it, it is not given out for free. If refusal to give out land for free justifies your killings then you are very wicked. So the killing is just to force people to give out their land free of charge. What you plant you will one day reap. |
