[quote author=AllenSpencer post=79709237][/quote] So by your logic , the govt should not try the herdsmen for Crimes like the 100 wiped out in a village in his in 2017? Let's all sweep their Crimes under the carpet and believe that these bad ones have simple evaporated and open ranches for them across Nigeria so magically these bad ones will not come along with them? Are. You saying bokoharam now comes. To jos, benue , ondo , enugu , taraba etc? These are all. Crimes by the fulani herdsmen and the. Security agencies chose to label them herdmen bandits Now how can't you expect people not to resist this move when the government will not make a show of arresting and persecution of fulanis in these states for crimes over the last 5 years ?! You want a suggestion? Ask myetti to provide like 100 fulanis who will take a fall for this distribute them along the state where these crimes happened over the years arrest them and convict them make a Media show of it. Buharis popularity would soar! Then push for this ranching after claiming that the evil ones have been purged , get the state governments involved and have them have an active part in managing these settlements in their states ! Are you aware the murders of the Jos 100 have not been arrested till date? Or the benue 49 and so on , I could list the crimes by fulani herdsmen over the last 4 years for hours and 24 hours would not be enough. It takes intelligent people to run governance not propaganda but propaganda can be used by smart people to run a government when backed by action. You just simply cannot justify this ranching safely on the streets of Nigeria only via the Internet as you are doing. That country is at a boiling point and if care isn't taken this ruga thing just might tip it over the edge. The ruga initiative isn't a terrible one it's just being done at the worst possible time. There are no bad moves in chess only right moves done at the wrong time and that's what buhari seems to be doing repeatedly. This isn't the time, first make a show of honestly tackling security challenges. Nigeria has the most porous borders in the world , you are telling people the fulanis are not bad that it's Foreign cattle rearers doing this yet you have made no show of building a wall or closing up the borders You can literally walk from katsina into Chad like you are taking a stroll and vice versa At times I don't know whether critical thinking comes so hard to those who justify this rubbish It's not nuclear physics it's basic manipulation with the least effort when thinking is employed. One cannot simply justify this rubbish without looking absolutely ridiculous. Again miss me with such nonsense 2 Likes 1 Share |

Amatarasha: i am solidly behind your line of reasoning but i come to think of other points. lets not play the karma card now bc these fulanis terrorist are a clear and present danger that all hands must be on deck to tackle. they are coming for all of us. they have already positioned themselves in all the nooks and crannies of nigeria - they are fully armed and ready to destroy any group or state that refuses to give them land. they want 20% land mass in all the northern states and 12% land mass in all the southern states. they are raising a worst jihad than that of utman dan fodio - its a matter of time before they fully activate it. based on how population is exploding now, they know they must fight this war and win it now or they will lose forever. THIS IS NO LONGER AN APC / PDP MATTER - THIS IS A WAR AGAINST NIGERIANS AND HEY HAVE THEIR LEADER AT THE TOP SO NO GOING BACK. 1 Like |

If the government turns deaf ears to widespread protests and makes Ruga settlements inevitable, the locals should turn into herdsmen, buy cattle heads, change the name and occupy the settlements. Those settlements will be built with Nigerian funds and cannot be be monopolised by anybody. Overwhelm the strangers with the sheer population of locals in the settlements. 2 Likes |

AllenSpencer:You actually shot yourself in your legs... Do you get a space in that market for free? How abut those shops build by either government of private individuals? are they for free? Even when the poultry is situated far from the people is the land free or given free by the government? Even when their are designated places is the place not being being rented? You talked of subsidizing agric produce, It means that the farmers will still have to pay a little which is far diffrent in this case. What we are saying is let the fulani herdsmen like every other law abiding Nigerian traders rent their land with their money and be confined in one location, that is how it's done in other climes, is that too difficult for them to do? Have we not tried for them? Remember our money have been used to import grass for them in the past. 1 Like |

Jorussia: We in Benue are not against Ruga. We advocate strongly that Ruga or whatever routine change in nomenclature is used, should be implemented in the home state of the Fulanis. We in Benue have decided that cattle rearing in the state is private business. All who therefore wish to be engaged in such business should register it with the government, acquire land and ranch their animals just like every other livestock farmer. Other states may Ruga as their policy. We have no problem with that. Now our issue lies in the fact that the federal government having known our position, boycotts the governor, ignores the wishes of the People and goes behind in clandestine moves using whatever methods to acquire land for purposes that affront the provisions of subsisting laws in the state.

Amatarasha: Dear pls calm down and re-read my post. i said i am one of those that always laugh and say karma is working on the people of benue state. but what am saying now is - there is no time to rejoice on what the federal government of fulani in nigeria is seriosly working on unleashing on all of us! THIS MENACE IS NOT GOING TO BE JUST BENUE! THEY ARE GOING TO SPREAD IT NATIONWIDE! BUHARI WANT TO SECURE LAND FOR HIS PEOPLE IN ALL THE REGIONS IN NIGERIA BEFORE THE END OF HIS TENURE! THEY HAVE POSITIONED FULLY ARMED FULANI MILITIAS IN ALL THE NOOKS AND CRANNIES IN NIGERIA EVEN IN SOUTHEAST! THE FULANI TERRORISTS ARE GOING TO ATTACK ANY STATE OR PEOPLE THAT REFUSE THEM LANDS! REMEMBER LAST WEEK PEOPLE REPORTED THAT HELICOPTER WAS DROPPING ARMS AND SUPPLIES TO FULANI HERDSMEN IN SOME PART OF ENUGU FOREST! THIS MORNING OBA OF BENIN WAS REPORTING THAT FULANIS ARE SETTING UP MILITARY BASES IN EDO AND DELTA STATES!

Why is the FG trying to be clever by half? The Constitution is clear. Lands belong to the states and not the FG. The FG can do whatever it wants with the resources in those lands, however, no law compels the state government to give out its lands by some useless veto power. Someone needs to sue Buhari and fast. He knows not what he's doing. 1 Like |
