Ali Ndume, senator representing Borno south, has kicked against the decision by the governors in the south to ban open grazing and movement of cattle by foot.

The governors took the decision at a meeting in Delta state on Tuesday.

According to them, the ban will prevent the frequent clashes between farmers and herders, and also improve security in the region.

But speaking with reporters in Abuja on Wednesday, Ndume said the governors are engaging in a “blame game” that will not solve the problem.

“This blame game will not solve the problem,” the chairman of the senate committee on army said.

“Governors are the chief security officers of their states, so, why are they talking about the president without talking about themselves? The governors are deviating from the matter. The problem is not about open grazing.

“The problem is security. Most of the security problems confronting Nigeria are not in the bush.

“We have four different types of security challenges. We have an insurgency in the north-east; IPOB, through the Eastern Security Network, is creating insecurity in the south-east; there is banditry in the north-west.

“It is only in the north-central that we have issues of farmer-herder clashes. There are fewer problems in the south-west except for the clashes between the herdsmen and the farmers, and the agitators for the Yoruba nation.

“Similarly, in the south-south, they are trying to instigate the avengers, but so far the area is peaceful. The issue of insecurity is unique to each zone. President Buhari has taken charge of the security personally now.

“It used to be the chief of staff or the minister of defence who was having meetings with the service chiefs but today, the president has taken charge of the problem.”

I can understand your panic Mr Ndume but it's too late already for this your premium tears. Stop crying already and take stock of your nation. You admitted to 4 security problems but still lied about them all.


See Oga, Nigeria has collapsed. You might be too short sighted about what is really happening but it might already be too late to save this contraption. So stop this your myopic rants and start planning ahead for Arewa nation without the middle belt.

This Boko Haram sympathising senator should just shut up and allow the governors in the South to take their decision without coming to interfere with his truckload of bullshit.

The governors of the South have choose to tackle this issue and I will advise you go to Borno and address the burning issues there.

"You don't tell an old woman to close her legs when you don't know the source of her fresh air..."

Lol,
Oga, it is only in the south, your people can practice open grazing in the entire north even at national assembly complex and Aso wetin. Let the southerner choose how to take care of their respective lands.

Can't northerners keep their cows in north?

No be by force to eat cow meat now

You are encroaching in other people's land and you have the guts to spew this trash, even when the owners of the land have giving you a quick notice...

I wish a bill will be passed by southern governors to behead any herder caught engaging in this kind of act anywhere in southern states, then these imported idiots would learn their lesson in a bitter way

Land Is for every living things with respect to land mark,
respect and protect what you have and shear life with one anothe, dont spill blood or take life which you cannot creat.

Nooo, according to the blood suckling terrorists, they must kill everyone and take their lands in the south.

this is the only reason I love the northerners
they understand this country so well and play its politics perfectly.
political correctness no dey their dictionary
it doesn't matter the political party it's and has always been the North first before anything.

That's why I laugh at those who think the North will abaddon their own on the ballot irrespective of party and vote for a southern candidate especially during this period.
come 2023 a northern candidate will continue from Buhari and there's nothing any southerner can do about it.
the system is structured to keep them in power forever all they need is to be switching party.
while the south the educated illiterates keeps deceiving themselves instead of pushing for restructuring.

These guys can be very foolish when they want to.

If Southern Nigeria wants to progress, it's best to avoid these kind of people. They don't value human life. Instead of fighting BH and bandits, they are busy playing with them all in the name of religion/tribalism.

Ali Ndume is crying because he has lost the stealth Jihad.

For the records, the bushes are not the problem, but the Islamic terrorists disguising as herdsmen are the problem. The tension in the South is from the killings and kidnappings by the Fulanis who pretend to be herders. So, the starting point in securing the South from this threat is to ban open grazing and movement of cows on foot.

The SE governors should start the enforcement of the ban immediately using the newly established security outfits and vigilantes just as the well organized Amotekun has been doing in the SW before our lazy governors mustered a little strength to act.

For now, ESN should lay low and see how the governors of the SE will enforce the law. If after two weeks ESN observes no genuine action is to enforce the law, Ndigbo including ESN and groups that loves our ancestral land should join hands together to enforce the law.

Mr dudumu abi nduma no get ancestor's house?make e dash herdsmen for grazing now

Who noticed that Ndume was Only playing the Holy Lie (Taquiyah) card ever since.. You see him pretending to be speaking passionately about boko Haram These are pretentious moves to make Southerners believe that he is voicing their minds but it's a Holy lie and deceits....
For those who don't know how Taquiyah works, it's a Holy and acceptable lie that is used to expand islamist agenda and trust, it works perfectly for the Fulanis.. because of their thirst for domination..they are Taquiyah personified
The resolution of the southern governor's exposed his hidden hypocritical mind Ndume became jittery when the southern governor's pushed harder to stop bandits masquerading as herders
Jittery about the bold move that Ipob neutralise their fulani army threats as well as putting their fulani foot soldiers on their toes..

What a shame

This man is daft....he does not know d genesis of the challenge faced in d south is the herders farmers clashes
