President Muhammadu Buhari has said that one of the reasons Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom left the ruling party, All Progressives Congress (APC) for the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) was because he could not stomach what he (Buhari) explained to him on the farmers/herders clashes in his state.

Buhari said that he explained to Ortom that the cattle rearers and settlers problem in Nigeria was older than himself (Buhari) not to talk of him (Ortom).
Buhari said “But those of you who are neighbours to cattle rearers, Nigerians cattle rearers use to carry only sticks and their machetes to cut foliage for the cattles. But these are cattle rearers with weapons like AK47.
“But the problem is that you can hardly identify the difference between cattle rearers from Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, Nigeria Chad, Cameroon and other cattle herders. They look the same but I was accused of not doing anything about those operating locally but I took the governor on this and this is one of the reasons he left our party for another party.
“Because I told him the cattle rearers and settlers problem in Nigeria is older than myself not to talk of him and at first republic, there were cattle routes, they put infrastructures and even veterinary.

“But the so-called politicians because they are so much in a hurry to make money they acquire some of these lands and turned them into their private farms.

“So, if you are a cattle rearer or you know about cattle like myself, the herders now pass through anybody land to find water for their cattles to drink. I told Audu Ogbeh, the minister of agriculture to look at the Gazette of the first republic to get the cattle routes and get the grazing routes and re-establish them so that we can reduce this incidence. Some of you here know the efforts we are making.” he added

bubu never makes any sense

Just Imagine

Yeye talk

How can a well meaning nigerian associate himself with a terrorist?

May God deliver us

In other words you admitted that it is not politically motivated but since they are fulanis you decided to do nothing as long as benue people refused to surrender their lands as grazing routes.

buhari brain is older than him too

So as cattle rearers they have license to carry AK47 in Nigeria ?

I spit on ur name

What a stupid reckless statement from a president. Guess It's the same Buhari's Gaddaffi-trained marauding & killer herdsmen brothers that Nigerian security forces can't arrest or prosecute?

Ortom is a killer.

its really hard for me to pick sense in your submission.

My fellow country men hope you have heard, any problem older than you don't try to solve it. Said our chief terrorist.

Ortom is a Nigerian and a Patriot of the Rank of Awo, J.S. Tarka and Wike.

All Nigeria's leaders are intellectually bankrupt, but buhari's Case irredeemable, nothing is presidential about this Grandpa.

Some are thrust into Government without really knowing the authorities and responsibilities of Governance. Ortom is real, astute and responsible. He could not sell the Tiv's Culture to the Fulanis' corruption and bribery.

On this, I completely DISAGREE with Bubu (Buhari)

This is analogue mentality. Rather than look for first republic cattle nonsense routes, for cattle to harass people on their own lands, why not provide mordern alternatives to cattle rearing than normadic activity?

He himself has at least 150 cattle. Do they move around plundering other people's farmlands? All land belongs to State Governors. How can the President accuse a governor of 'desire to be rich' for people establishing farms in their communities?

If it was road, school or hospitals, would the President blame the government for establishing same along 'first republic' cattle routes 'with veterinary?

How many veterinary doctors per capita of cattle did we have IN THE WHOLE OF NIGERIA in the first republic? Even today, how many? How does Bubu say these things? I empathise with Prof Yemi. He evidently takes a lot of things he ordinarily night not have taken. That's apparently the height of loyalty.

This is low, very low, and suggests indeed that when the President speaks spontaneously about things that are his original or indigenous ideas, he sometimes comes about as shockingly low.

When the greatest countries in the world today do cattle ranching and the cattle don't move around at all? Our own president is talking 1965 - and before he was born Should we all in Nigeria go back to caves as or was before anyone was born? How does the President justify anything with this comments?

On this, I am with Governor Ortom and the PDP voting majority of Benue State. Now, I understand why that kept APC out of the government house there. How can the President of the country say this? Did he personally visit Benue to spread with the people in that period, like he is doing currently in UAE? A President should be proactive and be mordern. He should resonate with the reality of the immediate period and feel the pulse of the people.

If voting was done online in Nigeria, like Estonia which is almost entirely digitalised, people like Bubu wouldn't win a second term. Not at all.

I think Bubu was possibly the best Presidential candidate option from the last election, but this isn't good.

Jesus! And all those fulani migrants including u having being terrorizing this country... Nigeria is a definition of 419

President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday publicly blamed former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi who was killed seven years ago for the ongoing killings across central Nigeria.

The killings have long been linked to herdsmen, and some herders of the Fulani ethnic stock have claimed responsibility for some attacks.

But the president said Mr Gaddafi, a dictator swept away by an uprising in 2011, was to blame for the alarming dimension the attacks have taken in recent years.

You're so intelligent. I have realised the class of personalities that supported and voted for Buhari. I also understand you have interest in pig business. I pray the economic agenda of Buhari favour your vision.

Failed APC president
