Nigerians Account For HALF Of All Beef Consumed In West Africa - Thanks To Fulani Herdsmen

Lagos (AFP) - With over 200 million people and an emerging middle class, Nigeria is witnessing a boom in demand for meat that offers potential but also risks for the semi-nomadic herders who provide most of its beef.

According to government estimates, Nigeria consumes 360,000 tonnes of beef each year, accounting for half of all West Africa.

In per-capita terms, consumption is low compared with advanced economies, but it is growing fast, and expected to quadruple by 2050.

Today, most of the demand is met by pastoralists from the ethnic Fulani group, who follow time-honoured techniques of raising cattle, driving them south to pastures and taking them to market.

During the dry season, the herders come down from the arid Sahel to the fertile plains of central and southern Nigeria, seeking water and pasture for their livestock.

Beef is a killer red meat. Nigeria's will be healthier without it, especially with the Fulani beef that is not medically regulated and certified for human consumption.

ABSOLUTE NONSENSE.

Beef is a vital source of PROTEIN, without which millions of NIGERIANS who depend on it for their diet would perish.

Beef also provides IRON and four essential vitamins - niacin, riboflavin, vitamins B6 and B12.

So long as it is eaten in moderation, beef is JUST FINE and EXCELLENT for your health.

It is a source of protein when you don't have better protein options such as fish, chicken, goat, rabbits and even soya. It is not the first choice for those that want to live a long and healthier lifestyle.

This is the most biased post I've seen on this forum and it has shown how desperate some fools up north want Nigeria to remain, but it will never, ever be so.

Before Fulanis came into origin, weren't Africans eating beef without the help of these normadic fools? The fulanis are like leeches ; they depend on other tribes for their existence and sustainance that's why that con man (Uthman Dan Fodio) had that useless jihad in 1804 because he knew that his fulani tribe would go into extinction if they don't conquer those who buy their cattles

[/s] Igbos are doing what you lazy jokers up north could never do in 300 years, and this has made them survive and prosper irrespective of the zoo's marginalization tactics.

It is a common fact that northerners are lazy and corrupt, which is why 90% of the ghost workers in Nigeria are found in Northern Nigeria.

Another fact to add here is the Quranic nonsense your islamic scholars preach to able-bodied boys. These young men are suppose to be out working and going to school, yet your state government and the mumu islamic clerics in your society encourage them to be Almajeri who beg for a living, hence making them burdens to society.

It is interesting to note once more that the north as a whole does nothing to the contribution of the GDP of the country ; instead it is always waiting for the centre (Abuja) to disburse oil money you clowns never worked for or earned.

So you can see how truly useless you northerners are. Especially those that call themselves Fulani grin

But don't worry ; Nigeria will soon break up and you chaps will drink your urine once poverty begins ravaging grin

The fact that millions of you Igbos are settled in the same north you are bashing shows your words are those of an Igbo prostitute who claims to be a virgin, but fcks 200 Fulanis a day!

In fact Fulani herdsmen have smashed that Igbo pussy up north so much, it's not even funny...

So YOU KEEP TALKING while THEY keep smashing, a'ight?

People!
They are desperatetly trying to whitewash facts as usual.. The fact is that the fuulani herding tactic is the only reason why Nigerians eat meat like people in refugee camps! There's a subsisting ban on the importation of beef into Nigeria, yet as we speak, a fulani herder can jaywalk his way through our borders with his brood of malnourished cows to come and sell in Nigeria at the most exhorbitant prices globally! These cows are malnourished, they are not well taken care of and are mainly cows belonging to foreign fulanis!

As a result, the fulanis have become the biggest source of capital flight in Nigeria! Every kobo made by these FOREIGN fulani herders is changed to USD in Nigeria then disappears into the economy of Mauritania, Niger, Guinea, Burkina Faso etc, as the Herders wriggle back to bases from where they came from with their booty. And apart from the desease infested beef, Nigerians also have to deal with killings, rape and ethnic cleansing unleashed by these wandering people..

The amount of money used to buy dangerous fulani beef can be used to Import from decent producers of beef in places like Australia, Argentina etc. Beef is costly in Nigeria because of the re-tarded herding culture of the fulani herders! It can't come cheap when a human being chooses to walk down to Calabar from Sokoto just to sell his cows! Cows herded this way are prone to infections and deseases. For Nigerians to live healthy, they have to feed well and this can't happen if their ONLY source of protein is the same group that rear the worst breed of cows at the most exhorbitant prices globally..

Anything to make Nigerians feel that we owe them herdsmen anything.


If the numbers above are factual,then it's a very big business and market which means the players in the field should invest in the business starting with modernizing it like it's done elsewhere.

They don't need government intervention via RUGA because they can afford to invest and recoup their funds.

And so herdsmen have the right to kill them
country's with less consumption are free to live peacefully.

We don't care really.
How much revenue does the FG or various state government generates from this sales?

Even if we are to ignore the health effects of eating beef we cannot ignore the fact that innocent people's blood are
being used to raise cattle.

Have you been following the news? These countries you mentioned are not good criteria for healthy lifestyles. They may claim to live that long, but all those long years are in most cases sustained with a cocktail of toxic drugs that keep them going. That is why health insurance is a multi-trillion dollars cartel in these your beef model countries.
Re: Nigerians Account For HALF Of All Beef Consumed In W. Africa - Thanks To Fulanis by descarado: 6:22am On Jun 18, 2021
When you come to healthy choice of meat, beef is dwarfed by so many good and better options.
That's why developed countries use cows for what it's good for which is milk. Other milk options are even better.

Let's not glorify eating beef.
Chicken goat are better. Beef is only ahead of mutton. Some even said pig is healthier. Poultry business gives better income too.

We go as far as eating the skin. Poverty mentality.
