Over what?

mfm04622:


Over the fact that in Benue, a militia set up by the State Government is killing Fulani and their cattle while in Taraba a militia sponsored by people (not government this time) is doing same.

Yes, are there criminal Fulanis? Absolutely! Outside of the South East and South South, Fulani are responsible for majority of kidnappings in the country. Same for armed robbery that happen on highways. Do Fulani trespass on farmlands? Absolutely. some criminals among them do. But the solution is not to attack them.
As long as we allow Fulani to roam about, there will be clashes between farmers and herders. So what are the solutions?

1) Govt must ensure crimes by anybody is appropriately punished. This in turn will ensure citizens trust security agencies.
2) Restrict herdmen to certain places to be provided by govt. Govt should provide amenities (schools,security, hospitals, vet hospitals, water, extension services, abattoirs, etc). Govt should not just use this reserve. Govt must divide it up for them, teach them how to manage it, they pay rent on the land, govt collect taxes when they sell animals. If this is done, we have peace! We also have useful citizens that will be literate, that will give up moving up and down in maximum 2 generations. Govt will also make the money they invest in such places back. imagine what this will do for our diary industry! People will say we are rewarding Fulani for the violence they use. Please know that Fulani don't see this as good! They have never been interested in OWNING land. All they wanted was ACCESS to land. So they use to have access to ALL land in the country, now they will be restricted to only about 1%. Which they will NEVER own. Just use. Don't see this as govt supporting a business, see it as removing people from poverty, illiteracy, introducing them to healthcare, etc which are functions of govt. Also security. Because the Fulani are the easiest to turn to crime! Imagine someone without ANY skill. He knows how to do nothing but rear cattle. The moment his cattle is rustled (by fellow Fulani), or killed by farmers how will he survive if not by crime? The highest he can do is drive an Okada. If he can get! If they are restricted, security will be provided, rustling will reduce, farmer won't have reason to kill cattle.

State of emergency will not resolve the conflict rather the FG should work towards conflict transformation

Truth be told, especially communities in the South are no longer comfortable having the herdsmen in their midst and would rather prefer that those reserves are set up in the core North where there is bigger land mass, take Niger State for instance it is almost 3 times the entire 5 states of the south east! There are communities in the south east that are in conflict with each other over the limited space there, do you think the idea of reserves will be accepted there?

Israel is successfully running cattle farming in their deserts, same can be applied locally as most of the real owners of those cows the herdsmen move around with are multi-millionaires and can set up ranches but can't come to terms of not longer having unrestricted access to the whole country!
