We’ll reject review of Land Use Act by FG – Gov OrtomPublished on June 29, 2021By Ochogwu Sunday

Governor Samuel Ortom says Benue State will reject the planned review of the Land Use Act by the Federal Government with vehemence as it is meant to grab land for open grazing, cattle routes and grazing reserves.

Ortom spoke on Monday while reacting to allegations of planned review of the Land Use Act of 1978 to give ownership of land to the Federal Government and to push for take over of waterways and River Banks by the Federal Government.

The Governor stated that the attempt to review the Land Use Act by the presidency would not be acceptable by Benue State as it was another attempt to grab land from the people for open grazing, pointing out that continued insistence on open grazing and cattle routes connotes a hidden agenda.

He also noted that Livestock Guards cannot be held responsible for any strayed cattle in the course of trying to impound livestock that contravene the ranching law of the state.

The Governor noted that as herders come armed, attack and sometimes kill Livestock Guards and security agents in the course of discharging their responsibilities, force has to be applied to impound the cattle which could result to stray ones.

He stated that if herdsmen had obeyed the ranching law of the state and complied with its provisions, nothing of such would have happened in the first place let alone the blame game.

Governor Ortom described the allegation as cheap blackmail, stressing that it was ridiculous for the presidency to continue to look for a solution to farmers and herders crisis when ranching is there and had proven to be a global best solution.

The Governor, who received the Assistant Commandant General, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC, in charge of Zone H, Harilu Usman, acknowledged the support of Agro Rangers to peace and security in the state.

ACG Haliru Usman, while pledging his commitment to peace and security in Benue and other states under his jurisdiction, said the declaration of Thursdays and Fridays as public holidays for civil servants was a demonstration that Benue is truly the Food Basket of the Nation.

Hmmm if possible Fg will just divides some states into two and gives half to it’s Fulani herdsmen, football stadium will be converted to grazing field, cows will not only graze but feed freely on people’s foodstuffs in the market because that market has been legally converted to cow feeding route, Every citizen will be required to pay special tax(cow feeding tax CFT), All farmers will be required to donate 5% percent of their crops to herders.

If you’re reading this and you’ve already tired of living in Nigeria but you’re struggling to raise the money to travel out.

You’re jobless and struggling to eat and pay ur bills.

You’re working as if you’re not working.

You’re a man but your wife has turned the breadwinner of the family.

You’re a woman but can’t afford to buy a pair of shoe for yourself unless your husband gives you money.

I pray this morning that the kind of miracle that will turns your life around, change your story and make you achieve that your heart desires will locate you In Jesus name

Mr. President is just trying to cause another unrest with this land use act.
If any state is to reject this act, then it must be Benue State.

okooo

When people started crying out about Buhari’s Islamization/fulanization agenda idiots came out in his defense, is it not obvious now? He wants to make sure he spreads his marauding blood sucking terrorist kinsmen across Nigeria before he leaves office even though there are signs already that he won’t want to leave office.

Na land use act you wan quick amend terrorist President.

God took care of Abacha this vegetable is nothing before God.

Double mouth Ortom.
Well, he is right in this case.
The best part of our constitution is handling land to states.
You can imagine what Buhari and his goons would have done if they constitutionally
own all the lands in Nigeria.

...... and some desperate humans want Apc for 2023

Are they normal?

Apc is evil and their Islamic agenda is not demonic

Do you know what this Islamic Apc immans preach in mosque?

Walai you go mad provoke kill all at ones if you enter mosque and hear ...

Nigerians must resist Apc with their blood..

Northerners in majority ain’t talking but they’ve buried Apc already.. while Alive.

I thought they said Ortom agreed to give land to Fulani jihadists

No mind the idiots. Ortom would rather die than give his state for Fulani agenda. They have failed already.

One naigeriannas and their anti-abokey lamentations. What an irony.

Seriously no nation is wiser than the Biafrans. They see very far.
If my comment pain you, make you quench. Fact na fact.

GIVE UP YOUR LAND AFTER ALL FULANIS ARE YOUR MUSLIM BRETHREN

If the land use act is abolished or reviewed in anyway which is what the national assembly want to do in this ongoing constitution amendment sham, then Nigeria has been handed over to herdsmen. Instead of giving more powers and responsibilities to states, these wicked people in abuja are constantly devising wicked means of implementing their Ruga and water bills that couldn't scale through. Nigerians must remain alert, the current land use act must not be tampered with in anyway.
