Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, on Saturday said he was not happy with the manner in which Fulani are treated in the country.

He also said the Federal Government’s Ruga programme shouldn’t be implemented where indigenes are not Fulani.

On the suspended Ruga programme, he said it should be optional for states.

Ganduje said the initiative should not have been made by the Federal Government, rather states interested in the economic relevance of Fulani herdsmen.

The governor spoke while addressing journalists in Sokoto after attending the wedding of the son of a former governor of Kano State, Senator Kabiru Gaya.


He said, “I think the suspended programme was really misunderstood. Ruga is supposed to be for a state where Fulani reside; you cannot implement Ruga where the indigenes are not Fulani.


“The programme should be for those states that will cater for Fulani and the issue of herdsmen should be socio-economic in nature and not a socio-cultural.

“That is why in Kano State, we decided to develop a grazing area in form of Ruga where Fulani herdsmen will all live in one place and can be monitored.


“They will get other social services that are being provided for the people of Kano State, which include health, security and education. Not only that, their businesses would be improved upon so that their cattle can produce more nutritious milk for the people.”

Ganduje said there was no better way to resettle the Fulani herdsmen than practise Ruga system, instead of them migrating from one part of the country to another.

“Otherwise, Fulani will be suffering and the security problems will continue. I am not happy with the manner in which they are being treated in the country.

"At the same time I am not happy with the way they behave too, because of their lack of Education which is gradually graduating into banditry."

In other word, rugs should not operate in Nigeria because the Fulanis are not known to Nigerians

So where.

Hi.mmmmm Riga wahala

Nice

Sometimes I wonder if this man is really educated

2023 in view

Can't we deal with this issue and move to other things
The government is playing ostrich and burying it's head inside sand abi

Do you know that many people like the way Fulanis look, especially their females and the way they dress
Many drink and patronise their fura and other things
Many people live/lived in peace with Fulanis for long before 201...
Other tribes are also into cattle business

Finally, cattle ranches remain a private affair.
When Lagos and Kebbi joined to do rice, no one died
So why must blood be spilt because of Ruga

Even if they settle this Ruga ish what of the numerous people who have died and those who have lost properties?
Would they set up a funding scheme to help restitute, compensate or appease them

Shame on bad leaders

Ruga is specifically supposed to be implemented in mannabbqgrill's state and the village of other senseless buhari followers. It will be of economical importance.

Which state is originally and present owned by fulani

May Allah bless Ganduje

Ruga shouldn't operate at all......

Gandollar seems like you think we have forgotten your bullion van pocket... Ole

How many time would this be on front page?

Thank you Mr dollar

A Fulani man with sense. Ruga should be optional and shouldn't be a forced policy.

Fragility6:
Ruga is specifically supposed to be implemented manannabbqgrills state and the village of other senseless buhari followers. It will be of economical importance.

Those terrorists will never escape punishment.

“Ganduje said the initiative should not have been made by the Federal Government.”

Buhari should have known this, instead, inside Buhari's mind is how to use government instruments to build Fulani settlements all over the south of Nigeria.

Does Buhari not know that cattle is no longer rested by wandering men in bushes?

Buhari thinks the south of Nigeria are future copies of the Fulani-led north.

Please I'm a graduate and I need a job.. please.

Pls which state are these fulanies actually from

Pls don't quote me wrongly I don't know that is why I am asking

The man is right on this one.
I hope he is not thinking we would forget his gondollars babaringa escapedes.

Ruga can only work in Mali, Niger,senegal...fulanis are not Nigerians
