The Attorney-General of the Federation, AGF and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, SAN, has admonished President Muhammadu Buhari to create an Commission that will regulate the activities of herdsmen.

Malami made the recommendation in Abuja on Tuesday while speaking as a special guest of honour during the Peace, Unity, and Security Lecture Series at the ECOWAS main auditorium.

According to Malami, the crisis between the herders and farmers must be tackled squarely as it was becoming a pressing issue.

“Nigeria is predominately agricultural in nature and by geography. To that extent, there is constant mobility of herders across the different belts of Nigeria. It is perhaps time to consider the setting-up of a commission for pastoralism regulated by law,” the Minister said.

“This might provide recipes for resolving protracted farmer-herder conflicts. The commission may even engage in or facilitate in-depth analytical studies with a view to providing lasting solutions for the benefit of people and the country,” he explained further.

He said the Buhari government is committed to supporting initiatives and programmes that would help resolve the lingering crises between farmers and herdsmen in the country.

Malami pointed out that the better approach towards putting an end to the crisis over the short, medium and long terms is to allow the stakeholders to play a part in coming up with solutions at the conception, implementation and monitoring faces.

Malami also recommended the creation of regulated grazing reserves to replace the “Burtali” or “Hurumi” pastoral system.

The Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, HURIWA, had during the week called on President Buhari to either suspend or query the Minister over his alleged refusal to prosecute arrested criminal Fulani herdsmen across the country.

The call came after the presidency asked the Nigeria Police Force to publish the list of herders undergoing trials across the country.

He will also do that for pig and poultry farming right? Cow business is a private business and it should be treated as such. Except the fg want to fund other animal husbandry business with same amount of money.

No fucking way, that's inviting trouble and I'm sorry Fulani are too aggressive for my liking

Is that the plans, why not celebrate straight from the start.

Noted

Then there should be commission in charge of dogs for our calabar people.

No one has the monopoly of madness o

WHY SHOULD CATTLE BREEDING BE SUCH A PROBLEM THAT NIGERIA CAN'T COPE WITH?

IT'S JUST A HUMAN PERSONAL CAPITALIST VENTURE THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO CONSTITUTE NATIONAL EMBARRASSMENT

BREEDERS SHOULD FLOAT RANCHES WITH CAMA AND PAY TAXES TO THE STATES THEY OPERATE IN.

This Malami needs to be caged. It seems he is now the arrowhead cabal member. The new EFCC boss selection suggests so.

A chief law man of the country instead of pushing for terrorists to be captured and prosecuted is pushing to give them legal backing.

The stage has been set. All powerful arms of the govt and security are in their hands. Watch as they push for the agenda before 2023. The west has brought home ant infested firewood in their quest for power.

Well...

They are achieving their aim-legalization of terrorism

JUST BECAUSE MR. PRESIDENT IS A HERDSMAN? THE ANSWER IS NO NO AND CAPITAL NO.

JUST BECAUSE MR. PRESIDENT IS A HERDSMAN? THE ANSWER IS NO NO AND CAPITAL NO.

...a commission when they have Miyetti allah?
