Who count the cows?

Well..the federal government has begun the livestock plan..
spare headed by the vice president in three states
plateau, nasarawa and Adamawa..

the herders and their catttles are only moving in to actualise the program...now they will claim that they are backed by the law..and no one has the right to challenge them..

this program was formulated to favor the herders..who are primarily Fulani.The herder is nothing without his cattle..his cattle is his life and culture.The only way to weaken this norm is for other people who are not Fulani to invest heavily in livestock farming..there you will reduce their dominance in the cattle business..

who says cow rearing is exclusively for the Fulani..if cooperatives can set up ranches or if states can set up their livestock programs..where anybody can own as many livestock's as he /she can afford to own..do you think the herders will have the type of guts they have now?

this form of nomadic livestock farming is archaic
the herders don't want ranching because..they don't want to spend money to take care of their cows..they also don't want to pay tax..after all it is a business like any other business.the move from place to place..eating free grass, drinking freshwater,no one can easily track them..

I pity the people of Awe,Doma, and wamba local government in nasarawa state,this people are the best rice farmers in the state..the soil there is so rich..you can plant anything..
this same land is going to be given to the herders..in the name of livestock program

it's just pathetic...Mr osinbajo thinks that he is proffering a solution... unfortunately for him and many others..this program will now give birth to more problems...

the solution is ranching
ranch what you can afford to ranch
don't be a nuisance to another person doing his own business.
respect other people's boundaries/land..

Benue has one of the most useless Governors in Nigeria.
He's busy playing politics with the lives of his people.

I remember that same wheel barrow governor declaring that there will no longer be open grazing in Benue. Is Benue now too big for him to enforce the law?

Even if the Police is a federal body, does the Governor not have influence in telling them what to do?

At least it worked in Ekiti and some other states. So what's wrong with Ortom?

He wants to show people who don't care that they are being persecuted by Fulani. And He forgot that he is a useless Governor that cannot protect his people.


*vomits on Ortom*

Biafra is for the igbos. Any other groups that dares join them will receive the same (or worse) treatment from them in future. Go back to the civil war and see how other people in Biafra were dominated and made second class - from the Midwest to the Rivers states, FACT!

EagleSquare1:
Here we go again with the usual cycle.
The rains end in Nigeria, the Northern part is hot and dry, the herders migrate down South via the North Central in search of greener pastures, some stray into farms and reactions by farmers occur and then crises begin all over again.
Such possible herders migration has now rightly or wrongly been termed INVASION!
Will the troubles ever end?

Sir, I am idoma by tribe. One of the affected Local Governments, Ogbadigbo, is where my parents hail from. Listen, we are Nigerians, not Biafrans.
The Creation of Several Security Groups by various ethnic groups, is only going to worsen the present Security challenges in the country and take the crisis and chaos to a whole new level.
These ethnic groups don't have the financial and military intelligence to sustain the planned creation of several security groups. They should not start what they can't finish, just because it sounds good to them.
Collective effort of all ethnic groups, is the way forward in solving this security crisis.

There is usually a misconception that writing a lot of words would hide the fact that there is a knowledge gap.
You have shown nothing but a bias in the NLTP for if you had ever read a publication on it, you would know that it is a ranch based form of husbandry to be coordinated by the states with just support from the Federal Government. So if there is any anomaly in the way a particular state runs it's own plan, the State governor is whom the buck rests with and not Prof Osinbajo.

Acidosis:


He's as old as any other King of a state or city that practices and operates a constitutional monarchy system of government. That position you see is largely ceremonial and the average citizen do not have a say as to who occupies that sit.

Here in Nigeria, Buhari holds all powers (both constitutional and unconstitutional). He's the head of state, leader of all federating units, chief security officer (grand commander of the armed forces ) and the sole administrator of our mono-toxic economy.

Do you see the kind of pressure y'all (the lazy yoots) put on an 80 year old man?

so its the state and fg that funds private business now.

Salebo:


Shut up you mo®on..

Why do they have a Governor

Isn't.there an anti grazing law in Benue they have been using

The authorities should implement it this time too..

Buhari this, Buhari that.

SciLab:


Nobody is forcing to be anything, but stop crying to us and save our ears the vicious lamentation accrued from your 'unity' with fulanis.

Idomas killed many Igbos for the fulanis during the civil war, it is a fact that we have not forgetten, maybe the recompense is what you are earning today.

I myself want an Igbo/Igboid only Biafra with 'Trump-like' tall and huge border walls at Enugu around it to keep murderers and idiots away.

Angelfrost:


She's right... Those states are embarrassing themselves. Such cowardice is shameful and disgusting.

Let the same herdsmen bring the cows down South... And see if there won't be free meat and barbeque for all the youths.

Fulani's will always target states of inbred lazy cowards!!! Mtchewww,!!!

If there is any region that needs Amotekun most,it's the North central Geo-politican Zone but their Governors are like the people,weaklings.
I pity kwara ,kogi,Benue and Plateau .
Foolish folks.

Reading through comments, its sad i must write because we leave the main problem and focus on trivial matters. the question is must be done, lives are at stake, that is not happening around you or around people you love does not mean it will not happen. Nigeria is under siege of some kind, we as a one Nigeria must look for a lasting solution, enough of the name callings, the fault findings, the blames on any particular tribe, to solve this security insurgency we MUST come together and fight this. peace can never be achieved without justice, for how long must this fight continue? Nigerians rise up, rise up.

slickbak:
You're foolish enough not to understand that if we haven't been fighting we in Benue would've been overrun. When states like Plateau, Nassarawa, Taraba and Kogi in the North Central have Muslim names and they speak hausa as a substitute for English, how do you expect them to come together with us to form a militia?? We have livestock guards in Benue that check these encroachments but can we do it with such neighbors?? Your miopic view doesn't cut the heart of the matter.

Armaggedon:
I think some idoma said they are not Biafra. I will like to see what will happen to them when The country splits.

Some fool are quoting me hopelessly. If you think Nigeria is ever going to remain one in the face of this jihad then you are so foolish that you are a disgrace to some reasonable goats. Every freedom loving ethnic group while forming their own security outfit should plan on where to pitch their tent and build a future based in shared values.
