Unfortunate kee you there Baba werey

When you were licking his anus and calling Mrs GEJ shepopotamus and calling on all Nigerians to vote for Buhari in 2015, you no remember unfortunate

I assumed you would have shown us the illegality if his position.

PMB must not listen to what your Govs say, like every conversation one group does not try to lord it's opinion on the other. Using vuvuzelas and social media to reecho your opinion in a bid to force it down the throat of other people won't work. That they express their opinion does not make it a law unless and until they pass such as law

PMB is not a herdsman, be ranches and believe ranching is the future of herding. Under him, our able VP lead a team to developed the National Livestock Transformation Plan NLTP to facilitate the process of ranching.

Govs have continued to be a stumbling obstacle to its implementation because they see the farmers herders conflict as good politics.

This is why despite forking out 100b, GEJ failed epically in achieving Ranching.

So the issue remains we need to talk to each other not at each other as you seem to suggest here.

Why is it so difficult to graze or do your Ruga in the north? There are some states in the north bigger than the entire south east. You can comfortably get just 3 states in the north that would be bigger than the entire south east and south south put together. So what exactly is the problem?

Well...Dull Joe & terrorist Buhari na the same thing only that Fulani herdsmen terrorists now assume Nigeria is an almajiri country,killing with reckless abandon upandan all because of Buhari.

In 2023,they will dribble Igbo,dribble Yoruba and install another Fulani cos both Igbo & Yoruba so called "leaders" never get sense AT ALL... just take a good example of Umahi & Tinubu.These two can eat Buhari's cows' shiit neatly all because of 419 2023.

now I know that your illiteracy is on the high side.

Do you agree your brothers should only do business in their place of origin? Or is it hard to get that no one has the right to stop others from doing business anywhere in the country they want?

The US, Brazil, the European Union, China, India, Argentina, Australia and Mexico produce over 85% of the world's livestock and beef. These guys don't have grazing routes nor engage in open grazing!!

As such, it's frightening when this stubborn Buhari is in support of the crude way his people wants to practice this livestock business. Can't Buhari or his Ministers for Agriculture, Labour & Employment, Interior, Science & Technology etc. read and learn from others?

Instead of Buhari having his kinsmen overrunning farms across the country, they can acquire loans from banks to build ranches. It's their private businesses. They can also grow hay right there on these ranches and have a meat processing facility for exports.

Buhari also needs to learn that agric science offers some very fast growing teff and soghurm grasses which is one industry that can also be developed on the Iivestock food chain! As such, this is like killing 2 birds with one stone.

So I imagine how a country that has produced brilliant, sound minded and accomplished people like Chinua Achebe, Wole Soyinka, Prof. Ayodele Awojobi, Akinwunmi Adeshina, Okonjo Iweala, Abubakar Dangiwa Umar, Gani Fawehinmi, Mallam Aminu Kano, Balarabe Musa, Olikoye Ransome-Kuti, Tunde Idiagbon, Adeoye Lambo, Dora Akunyili etc. ended up having one mor*n as the president?

Ok. I agree. If that is the case, why can't they buy a land or rent a space to do their ranch? Every businessman in the north either buys or rent a shop or an office space for their business.
Don't forget that cow meat is not cheap. It is not like we are talking about a 2 naira business here.
Before God and man, will you have accepted any other tribe to graze on northern lands, destroy their farms and kill the locals as it has been happening to southerners over the years now?

Context please.
Don't picture fraternities of those days with the cultism of today. The challenges they addressed, their recruitment standards and their modus operandi are totally, totally different. It was an defiant ideological gathering of intellectuals back then.

Shut up

Thesame buhari that love to weep at ralies in kano and bauchi back then to attract sympathy from gulible nigerians.. Finaly he was giuen a chance after four attemps , not based on merit becase he wasnt even educated. he was voted based on sympathy. here he is punishing thesame people that made him what he is today. honestly the heart of man is desperately decietful and wicked.

Only the state governors can approve land for ranching they have refused to do this because the crisis forms a basis for their politics

Soyinla is our uncle, who told you he's a cultist? You area rude boy. He chose not to go the Christianity or Islamic way, you need to respect his traditional religious belief and leave judgement to God

vedaxcool:

With all due respect, why should state governors approve land for ranching?

Why should the state be involved in private businesses? Would the state also approve lands for other private businesses? Or are some businesses more important than some others?

If the state has to be involved , why not the herders then go to their state of origin and request their own government to provide the land?

Why should the state provide land to non indigenes to do their private business when they are not giving out the cows free to the people?

Will your state government give out free land to people of other tribes to do pig farming?Remember that some states in the north don't allow the sale of alcohol

I am not trying to fight you, I'm asking these questions to make you think deep and see if this cow controversy in Nigeria actually makes sense except there is any other secret agenda not said in the open.

Built2last:
Fellow Nigerians, following President Buhari's decision to reclaim all officially gazetted grazing reserves/routes, I decided to conduct my own findings as to where exactly these gazzeted cattle routes are located. What I found was rather interesting and I will present it here for the purpose of enlightening the public.

My research focused only on the gazzeted cattle routes as that was what PMB said he would reclaim.

Do you know that in the entire south, it is only Oyo state that has 2 gazzeted cattle routes/reserves? The rest don't have. See below the breakdown of the officially gazzeted cattle routes in Nigeria;

There are 140 gazetted grazing reserves (Adamawa—31; Bauchi—27; Borno—15; Gombe—4; Jigawa—2; Kaduna—2; Kebbi—1; Kogi—1; Kwara—1; Nasarawa— 7; Niger— 2; Plateau— 1; Sokoto— 8; Taraba—9; Yobe— 17; Zamafara— 6, FCT— 4 and Oyo— 2.

I am not very sure PMB is aware of this distribution. He may be aware that there are gazzeted grazing reserves, but if he now discovers that what is officially gazzeted does not even include almost the entire south, I am not sure he will still pursue the agenda of reclaiming these reserves.

I also found out that as far back as the time these reserves were created, the committee recommended the adoption of a more sedentary method of cattle rearing or ranching. In a paper written by S.A. Ingawa, C. Tarawali and R. von Kaufmann, ILCA Subhumid

Research Site(1989) available at: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://cgspace.cgiar.org/bitstream/handle/10568/4349/x5516e.pdf%3FisAllowed%3Dy%26sequence%3D1&ved=2ahUKEwjM99OqvZbxAhXKEWMBHRnaCEEQFjAAegQIAxAC&usg=AOvVaw1y8BFWlPYpvbgFx53pnwIZ,


the authors listed some of the problems with open grazing of cattle and the need to implement a solution that is both beneficial to the pastoralists and the farmers.

The research is an eye opener and also a deep revelation as to how government can indeed resolve any problem if they intend to, with honesty and fairness.

As for the gazzeted grazing reserves in question, there are only 140 which I have listed. Although some were never officially gazetted, I have excluded them from this post because the focus is on the officially gazetted ones.

Thanks for the information. I can tell you that all buhari's effort will end up in failure. Fulani is about to become the most hated tribe in Nigeria, great will be their fall. Buhari won't remain in power for life, they should forget that.

REAL UNFORTUNATE!!! Must he impose nomadic life on non nomads? Sambisa is more than enough to contain the herdsmen; ENOUGH OF THE BLOODLETTING BY THE HERDSMEN.

Tdotbluejays1:

Jonathan was bad, Buhari was worst.
Now in 2023, there are two bad decisions to make again. Atiku (Fulani) vs Tinubu. A case of choose your poison. The masses can't win in Nigeria.

Well there are other candidates besides the two, but Nigerians have enslaved themselves to PDP and APC, so which is the lesser evil?

Since obviously you know nothing about the Land use laws of the country. I suggest instead of asking misplaced questions. while at it tell your brothers to go back home and buy land and do business in their state of origin. whatever logic you seem to use can be applied back to you.

You seem to have missed his point entirely.

His brothers in the North rent shops and rent or buy land to do their business here.

So why can't the Alhajis that own the cows, equally do the same. Buy land in the south and ranch their cattle instead of relaying on freebies from the federal government. If it means the price of beef will increase to cover their expenses so be it.

This whole cattle and herdsmen crisis would be over.

My brothers will never ask for land to do their private business. They buy or rent lands individually for their businesses whether in their state of origin,east, west or north. Tell your herdsmen brothers to do the same. Case closed.

Stop lying, he repeated severally that the herdsmen should go back to their state of origin and buy land. Even the Govs are saying no piece of land will be given for ranching. All I say is when similar treatment is given back to you don't wail. With all the propaganda against herdsmen who will sell their land?

Do you thinking ranching is a 2 by 2 shop? You see the problem you want to discuss an issue you have no inkling about?
