Nigerian Government Bans Open Grazing To Stop Killings By Fulani Herdsmen by egoldman(m): 8:14am On Jan 09, 2018 |
OPEN grazing of cattle was banned yesterday by the Federal Government – to stem the growing anger sparked by the killings in Benue and other states. All herdsmen must henceforth ranch their cattle. The decision was taken at the end of a six-hour meeting of a Federal Government delegation, security agencies and five governors. Presenting the communique after the meeting, Benue State Governor Samuel Ortorm, accompanied by his Taraba State counterpart, Darius Ishaku, said: “The meeting noted that all animal farmers must ranch their cattle and livestock for better productivity. It also observed the existing synergy between the security agencies and between the states and the Federal Government.” Full story here >>>> https://danngnews.com/2018/01/09/nigerian-government-bans-open-grazing-to-stop-killings-by-fulani-herdsmen/ |
