Completely taken aback that the promoters of the controversial RUGA Settlement programme proceeded with the implementation of the scheme as opposed to the National Livestock Transformation Plan, NLTP, developed by the National Economic Council and approved by the Federal Government, President Muhammadu Buhari opted Tuesday evening to suspend RUGA.

Insider sources explained to Chronicle NG that the President on hearing about the RUGA matter first expressed surprise about the programme, and then anger on finding that it was different from the NLTP which NEC and the FG had agreed on. 

The president then ordered a swift review of what RUGA was about and sought clarifications on its connection with the NLTP. The Vice President Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, according to sources had also strongly resisted the RUGA plan, arguing that it made nonsense of the NLTP, a very deliberate and elaborate plan developed by NEC, under his watch, and a plan which the FG had okayed.

When news about RUGA broke, it immediately raised widespread controversy as State Governors and other interests expressed surprise and a consternation regarding how it was developed and the fact that there were no consultations with States especially regarding land, which according to the law are vested in the Governors.

Another source told Chronicle NG that the President was annoyed that the plan, promoted by senior officials in the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and other FG officials, purports to use gazetted lands in the States for the purposes of building RUGA settlements without carrying along the States, creating a wrong impression that the FG was trying to take over land belonging to States and the people in those States.

There was visible panic in the Villa on Monday when senior officials in the President’s office were trying to get information about RUGA and its connection to the NLTP, although some in the office had tried to suggest that RUGA and NLTP. 

The President later discovered that not only was RUGA not under the VP, but that the programme was not aligned to the NLTP. He then ordered a suspension Tuesday afternoon. 

It was also discovered that the contract sums allocated for various aspects of the RUGA programme, were heavily overpriced, and incurred the wrath of the President. For instance purchases of solar panels were put at tens of million naira each, while boreholes were also to be procured at an average cost of N20m each.

The Vice President had been publicly drawn into the fray last Friday when the Secretary of the MACBAN, Baba Uthman Ngelzarma claimed on a TV interview that the RUGA was being supervised by the Office of the VP.

An apparently angry VP same day issued what was seen as a disclaimer, disclosing that his office was not supervising RUGA and explaining that the NLTP is a different programme altogether.

Southern Nigeria rejects Ruga, end of story.

They must always find a way to absolve Buhari and make him appear like the messiah. As in what did I just read?

I see

That shows Buhari is actually on the side of Nigerians. They need to sack all those who were trying to push this Ruga thing through the back door. They knew fully well that the NLTP was already in place, with Niger State already constructing a 31,000 hectares ranching project which was launched in March 2019 by the minister for agriculture, Audu Ogbeh.

Nigerians will never read the news with sense, we just like to swallow rumours like say na fufu!

dead brain zombie I know you must vomit gibberish to justify your July salary but all we are saying is that both NLTP,RUGA,RANCHES bullhari should leave Fulani and their private business buhari was elected to solve Nigeria problem not to advertise Fulani business do you understand me zombies

If both president and VP frowned at the idea of Ruga, then who are the people trying to force it on states?

these guys are devils in human form. They are now trying to tell Nigerians that the president is not aware

Story for Zombies.
Oh! They are here already, Buhari is never aware of anything. Lifeless things

Before I thought Jonathan was the worst President in Nigeria history, Buhari just got me dumbfounded

This one na scope and scam! All in a bid to absolve buhari while unnamed persons will take the blame yet we will not hear that anyone was sacked or even reprimanded. This is just calculated to save face because they did not expect the stiff resistance they got. Mad fulani dogs in Aso rock!

Immediately I read a paragraph where they were trying to absolve the terrorist for been behind Ruga I stopped reading.

They should always channel this kind of hypocritical script to their zombies. Demonic government!

you can see one of them up here absolving him of the rugaraga

Story for the gods. So all of a sudden, Buhari now knows nothing about this RUGA. Miyetti Allah was always against RUGA. RUGA is now a ghost-owned policy.

RUGA was a contraption by Buhari, Miyetti Allah terrorists and ISIS to start making inroads into southern Nigeria. The South and middlebelt have rejected the move.

Buhari cannot wriggle out of this mess. No amount of denials and press releases will remove Buhari from the deeply-held suspicion that he's the mastermind of RUGA.

It will seem Nnamdi Kanu has beaten Buhari silly in this episode.

It will also seem OBJ has given Buhari a good spanking. I think it will make sense for Buhari to give these men their dues. I'm sure Kanu and OBJ, Ohanaeze, Afenifere, Niger Delta and people like Sowore, will be happy with the outcome/

OBJ and Kanu must smiling now, at this huge victory against Buhari and the Fulani plan to help set up an islamic state that will totally consume Nigeria

Lol. The disgrace and shame from the ill thought out RUGA was just damn too much . RUGA concept is now an orphan with everyone denying it. Na wa o

Election is over!

Why can't you just people heal and move on?


No amount of insults on Buhari will make him lose at the tribunal or reduce his salary.

He is here till 2023.

Move on! Haba!!

Like seriously? Buhari not aware of RUGA? Is buhari ever aware of any major crisis in Nigeria? Who is running our country for Juda's sakes? Funny enof there are people at d helm of d executive corridor who are dynamite-ready to defend, absolve, exonerate and vindicate his misdemeanor. How hypercritical! At least, for once Buhari should try and sacrifice his ethnicism, favoritism and tribalism on d alter of national interest.

Lies from the pit of hell. Purely PR stuff.

The President will always not be aware of anything, including who Aisha gives it to. The crux of the matter is that we have rejected RUGA.

You are a Bmc agent.

Chai,the guys that the contract was awarded will be in mourning mood now. The yam on fire has finally refused to get done.

Useless EXCLUSIVE release.


Whoever says the Dullard is not aware of the RUGA mugunta, may Heavenly slap locate such slowpoke!

Imagine the nonsense damage control. How on earth: 1. was the allocation for RUGA appropriated
2. How on earth was the Lands Gazzetted
3. How on earth the letter by Benue Government replied by the federal government?

All of the above can never, ever happen without the President. As nobody gazettes lands except the president or the governors. Secondly, who signed the release of the fund, and pass authorization to Ministry of finance and CBN for the release for instance?


Una think say we be mumu abi.

Thunder!!! If you're too busy firing my enemies, please come, I got another target for you.

Damage control by ewedu influenced Lagos-Ibadan media a.k.a zombie broadcasting corporation. (BMC)
If you believe this, then your mumu is top most.

Another poorly thought out lie to absolve the very wicked satanic Buhari ...Buhari was 100 %=behind the Ruga initiative

This RUGA isssue will break Nigeria!

Its RUGA that brought Kanu & Sowore to the same table.

The IGP should round them up for open slaughtering.

You are wasting your time with the renewed onslaught on Nigerians ancestral land.

JubrinElSudan:

Buhari's image is even secondary if you check the nonsense written here very well. Buhari himself did not deny knowledge of RUGA. He said it is good for the country. What they are trying to do is bring the agenda back through another means. The people behind RUGA are the same pushing their luck with the socalled NLTP. All the people denying are the same people behind the two.

Don't fall for the gimmick.

That is the fallback option for them. The agenda is well planned. The single most important strategy for Nigerians is to continue the outrage. Let it be very clear to them that the issue will consume them.

Let the pressure continue on the governors, they are the collaborators.

Lies all na damage control
