Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu has said that only state governments in Nigeria can allocate land for cattle colonies as stipulated in the Land Use act of 1977.

Ekweremadu called on states to come up with legislation that will ban Open grazing in the country. Speaking at the House of Commons in the UK on a topic titled; 'African politics: The Dynamics and Lessons', He said;

"Importantly, I believe that ranching is the way to go rather than open grazing. However, it is for the Federal Government to provide the policy direction while the states take up the challenge because the issue of cattle rearing is a state matter as all lands are vested in respective states under the Land Use Act in Nigeria.

It is not for the states to set up ranches since it is private business. The states should, instead, come up with agricultural credit schemes that will encourage and support farmers to set up their ranches,".

Ekweramdu described the Open Grazing policy as 'archaic, anachronistic and out of tune with Modern Society'.He urged the Nigerian government to use Ranching instead.

He also called for the Decentralisation of Policing in Nigeria and Africa as a whole, stating that it's the only way the continent can deal with Insecurity.

Politics is not about hating an individual


Its about what you bargain and make out of it

Ekweremadu is spot on, cattle rearing is a private business, if you wish to ranch cattle, buy land and ranch it.

Last time i checked, the revenues Fulani made from selling their cattle wasn't paid into the federation account.

So government doesn't owe 'em land for use in ranching their cattle.

See this zombie ooo

Nigerian politicians hardly stand for anything, they must stand for this one abeg.

I think Buhari's brain has been cloned. Is this the buhari that was voted massively for?

The question is: have you taken time to read one page of the constitution? Some of you are....smh.

You forget that Buhari is one of them. In the regular Nigerian politician fashion, he is setting up his future generations.

The Federal government keeps allocating money for importation of grass for cattle like the profits been made is for the whole country and not for the Fulani man.

Buhari is making a lot of wrong decisions based on sentiments. Go Back to Duara

Why are we so preoccupied by Nama,Malu,Cow.Cattle in this God's forsaken nation all the time.?

Will Buhari and his MUMULISTIC tribesmen listen to this wise advice? They would rather attack the adviser.
God save Nigeria!

He is so right.

After seeing your response I have concluded that you're just a kid with free data, do have a fun-filled day kiddo.

Wise words from a wise man from the East.

I really don't see states giving out land for colony that will help, these fulani herdsmen are out for something....

I weep for niaja

buhari is a goat

Well articulated points. The only thing we should be clamoring is #backtodaura

Having a copy of it in every corner of your being means nothing if you dont read and study it!
Now buzz off.

BruncleZuma:


Unfortunately for you I have it both as an app and a hard copy...and I maintain every volume of it for my work oponu

Honestly Nigeria is gone

alright
