Just for our record The North Has enough land for ranching and cattle colony. We in the South West, South East and South South have little land mass. PLEASE LET US BE; LEAVE US ALONE TO MANAGE THE LITTLE LAND WE HAVE. GLOBAL CATTLE BUSINESS: FACT SHEET A. Top 10 NATIONS in terms of cattle inventory (2017). 1. INDIA 303 million 2. BRAZIL 226 million 3. CHINA 100 million. 4. USA 93 million. 5. EU 89 million. 6. ARGENTINA 53 million 7. AUSTRALIA 27 million 8. RUSSIA 18 million 9. MEXICO 16 million 10. TURKEY 14 million. B. TOP 10 MILK EXPORTERS 1. NEW ZEALAND $4.4 Billion 2. GERMANY $2.6 Billion 3. NETHERLANDS $1.9 Billion 4. FRANCE $1.5 Billion 5. USA $1.4 Billion 6. BELGIUM $1.2 Billion 7. AUSTRALIA $852 Million 8. BELARUS $637 Million 9. UK $569 Million 10. SAUDI ARABIA $556 Million C. TOP 10 BEEF EXPORTING NATIONS (2016). 1. AUSTRALIA $5.6 Billion 2. USA $5.2 Billion 3. BRAZIL $4.3 Billion 4. INDIA $3.7 Billion 5. NETHERLANDS $2.7 Billion 6. IRELAND $2 Billion 7. NEW ZEALAND $1.9 Billion 8. CANADA $1.5 Billion 9. URUGUAY $1.4 Billion 10. GERMANY $1.3 Billion Additional Considerations: 1. Nigeria is not among the top 20 nations in the global cattle business. 2. Non of the top cattle producing nations create cattle colonies or engage in primitive cattle grazing. All the top cattle producing and exporting nations utilise modern technology and ranching methods to maximise production and profit. 3. Non of the top nations earning billions of dollars annually from the cattle business condone the killing of citizens for cattle. 4. Nigeria's cattle business requires a complete re-think now and not later, for posterity's sake. Knowledge_is_power, Share to educate our leaders and citizens! Keep Sharing. Copied! 5 Likes 3 Shares |

duro4chang:Neither can you sell cocaine in all of the country. I don't agree with the nonsense about alcohol but this is not the way to compare things. The OP's analysis seems legit even if it needs citation. In any case, I doubt these killings are strictly about herders or Fulani alone because these bandits also sack northern, Fulani homesteads. Yes, it is about terrorism and domination. I for one believe the fight should be taken to them but you MUST identify those to whom you wish to take the fight. It is silly to label every Northerner or indeed Fulani as being a bandit. That's why having an identity database is useful. With that, you have records of everyone and what community they belong to, where they've recently been and perhaps by Analytics you can determine with whom they congregate. Acting like primitive people in this day and age cannot be condoned. |

People need to see this statistics,MODs do the needful. Hypocrisy of fulani led Federal Government must be exposed ! Buhari is very determined to steal lands of the indigenous people of southern Nigeria for his native fulani folks. MODS,please push this to the front-page. |

Buhari does not have the political will to confront and stop the killings by his fellow fulani but terrorist herdsmen. I remember Bob Marley song, 'where there is a will, there is always a way' - zion train track. OROSUNBOLB: |
