*Anambra + Enugu + Abia + Imo + Ebonyi = 29,525KM²*

*Kogi = 29,833KM²*

*Ogun + Oyo + Osun + Ondo + Ekiti = 76,320KM²*
*Lagos = 3,345KM²*

*Niger alone = 76,363KM²*

*Niger State = Entire Southwest States - Lagos*

*The entire Southeast
is a little less than Kogi State only.

Just for our record

The North Has enough land for ranching and cattle colony.

We in the South West 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.

Great points. Agreed 100%.

We can mint Billions of USD without needless conflicts & bloodshed.
Ranching is the way forward.

Happy Democracy Day my fellow Patriots.

Anambra + Enugu + Abia + Imo + Ebonyi = 29,525KM²

We can draw some mathematical expressions from this data.

Oyo State alone, 28,454KM²

Niger State alone, 76,363KM²

Therefore, Oyo state = (Anambra + Enugu + Abia + Imo + Ebonyi)

Niger state = 2× (Anambra + Enugu + Abia + Imo + Ebonyi).

Pls can someone remind me what exactly were Buhari's words in his interview with Arise TV?

Did he say dot or tiny dot or very tiny dot?

Cool data analysis. One LGA in Niger will easily accommodate more cows than all 5 SE states combined, so why allow Fulanis from sahara head SE for violent grazing?

Another look at the map gives one the impression that herders commiting atrocities in Plateau and Benue states come from Nassarawa state.

And yet Switzerland that is just the size of Abia and Enugu, has a bigger GDP than Nigeria

The smallest state in Nigeria, Lagos, has a population of over 20 million and is the economic base of Nigeria

Land size is never an achievement, it is better to be small and effective, than to be large and useless

If prosperity was based on landmass then Niger, Taraba and Borno should be the richest states in Nigeria and Lagos state should be the poorest. As far as I can see, the largest states in Nigeria are the most useless big for nothing federal allocation draining states that specialise in breeding children like animals.

I really like this research work. It really brings out the way forward if truly this administration really want the progress for this nation. Cattle free grazing is nowhere practiced in the developed or developing country. It can never brings out peaceful coexistence between citizens where farmers and cattle free grazing exist together. And in that community you are expecting love, peace and harmony to prevail. I was twice be a victims where my farm was been vandalized by these cattle herders grazing into my huge farmland and finish up everything on my farm in two consecutive years. I can never support #freecattlegrazing but rather against #nofreecattlegrazing. Thanks for this write-up.
