tit:
Open ranching is prohibited by trespass laws.
You cannot allow your ruminants into other people's farms or compounds.

oooduancalmdown:
Stupid thread. Build your own grazing reserve. Stop trespassing into people's farms. Malam without brain. Imagine comparing Seaport and Airport with cattle business. Aboki and their retarded brain. Even Saudi Arabia don't practise open ranching.

Go and reread again

I see no valid opposing arguments below but only foolish rants. This issue of grazing reserves or so called ranching being a private business is arrant nonsense.

Cc: Blue3k Empiree are grazing reserves private business?

The federal government of Nigeria want to establish grazing reserves across the country in a bid to put an end to open Ranching. Members of the opposition have rejected the move arguing that ranching should be a private business. To those who opposed grazing reserves read the below.

-Who build dams for irrigation? Government or Farmers? Farming is a personal business.

- Who build port for people to export and import goods?
Export and input of goods by private individuals should be a private business and therefore those individuals should build their own port.

- Who build roads for transport ?
Public and commercial transportation is a personal things and therefore transportation Unions should join hands and build roads for their business. Airlines operators should as a matter of fact build their own airports as transportation by a air is a personal business.


Then why the opposing views in government building ranches while the citizens utilizing it pay tax just as the scarsm above

Intellectual contributions only. Please Counter The 5 points below with knowledge and not ignorance

Ovamboland:
1. Government gives subsidy to farmers to buy fertilizer, nobody shouted it's Private business and government should stay off.

2. At huge cost the government builds dams at many river basins to irrigate farms.

3. They train farmers usually free of charge to adopt modern methods.

4. They sometimes provide free seedlings and encourage farmers to adopt it for increased yield.

5. Many governments buy tractors and attachments to be rented by farmers.

But why is it such a bad thing to establish ranching reserves?

Why is it wrong to train herdsmen to stop nomadic life and embrace ranching?

Will it be a bad thing to buy milking machine for rent to herdsmen to improve our dairy Industry and reduce milk import?

Will it be a bad thing to have fat healthy cows instead of the lean diseased types common today?



When the opposition was in power their last government released 100 billion naira to all 36 states to establish ranches. Due to the corrupt hallmark and incompetence no state used the money for the purpose. Now they claim to be champions by opposing a solution they themselves proposed and paid for, only weak minds take them serious.

The truth is obvious, the opposition don't truly want the farmers/herdsmen clashes to stop, they want to obstruct any solution and hopefully ride on the blood flow and associated anger back into office. Very wicked people.

Safe Journey Your Excellency The President of Africa.

vizboy is fast. His transactions are completed within a minute.

His price are also good.

All in all I will recommend him 100%.

He was Said to made the statement during Christmas but on October 12. So Christmas was celebrated on October during those days. Ok I don't know.

omoharry:
regarding this..why dont you read before you counter and dismiss what the op has said..yes, Sardauna said that in the parrot newspaper in Hausa language(though interpreted in English) in the first republic..please google it and you will see his quote in the newspapers of the sixties from the parrot papers..op is correct .I came across it in 2004 while i was doing some research on Nigerian politic.

It was fake, It is fake and it will always be fake. Go and ask your Grandpa if he is still alive during the Independence.

"The truth has come and falsehood has vamoosed; surely, falsehood is meant to vamoose (in the presence of the truth)”. Q. 17: 81

Death of an icon

One of the foremost political icons in Nigeria’s first republic and a patriarch of the political party called Northern People’s Congress (NPC), was Alhaji (Sir) Ahmadu Bello, the first and only Premier of Northern Nigeria. He became Premier of Northern Nigeria in 1954 through a popular election and was killed as Premier in January 1966 in a tribal/religious military coup plotted mainly by soldiers of Igbo extraction and led by one Major Patrick Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu. The plotters had killed this icon in cold blood before looking for reasons to justify their heinous crime. The three reasons they later gave were corruption, tribalism and religious bigotry. It was a matter of calling a dog a bad name in order to hang it.



The Premiers’ flanks

Among the four Premiers in Nigeria at that time, only Ahmadu Bello could not in any way be evidently linked to corruption. Unlike others who lived opulently, Ahmadu Bello was an ascetic personality who served his people patriotically without any blemish. He left only a small residential bungalow in his home town of Sokoto at the time of his death. Who else left such a flank? Sir Ahmadu Bello could also not be singularly accused of tribalism because tribalism was the basis of all the existing political parties of the time. No Premier from 1954 to 1966 could be exonerated from tribalism directly or indirectly. They were all guilty of it.

It can be recalled that certain tribal groups such as Ibiobio State Union (IBU), Ibo Federal Union (IFU) Egbe Omo Oduduwa (EOO) and ‘Jam’iyyar Al-Ummar Nigeriya ta Arewa’ translated as Northern Elements Progressive Association (NEPA) which later transformed into Northern Elements Progressive Union (NEPU) were all socio-cultural organizations that metamorphosed into political parties. All those parties preceded ‘Jam’iyyar Mutane Arewa’ meaning Northern People’s Congress (NPC) to which Ahmadu Bello belonged. Many other ethnic-based political parties later emerged to broaden tribalism in Nigerian politics. If anything, Ahmadu Bello was the least tribally inclined Premier of his time. Why did his killers link him alone to tribalism?

His 1959 Christmas message

Of the four Premiers in Nigeria’s first republic, only Ahmadu Bello was bold and sincere enough to allay the fear of the minority groups in Northern Nigeria by making a public policy statement about his government’s stand concerning tribalism and religious bigotry. Here is an excerpt of what he said while sending a Christmas message to northern Christians in 1959:

“…We are people of many different races, tribes and religions, who are knit together by common history, common interests and common ideals. Our diversity may be great but the things that unite us are stronger than the things that divide us. On an occasion like this, I always remind people about our firmly rooted policy on religious tolerance. Families of all creeds and colour can rely on these assurances. We have no intention of favouring one religion at the expense of another. Subject to overriding need to preserve law and order, it is our determination that everyone should have absolute liberty to practice his belief. It is befitting on this momentous day, on behalf of my ministers and myself, to send a special word of gratitude to all Christian missions”.

“Let me conclude this with a personal message. I extend my greetings to all our people who are Christians on this great feast day. Let us forget the difference in our religion and remember the common brotherhood before God, by dedicating ourselves afresh to the great tasks which lie before us….”



Fabricated version

Years after Ahmadu Bello’s unjustifiable assassination, some evil elements in the media, in active conspiracy with certain political demagogues went to fabricate another statement and credited it to the late Premier as a justification for killing him. The concocted statement was culled from an unknown newspaper called ‘The Parrot’. Here is the fabricated statement:

[s] “The new nation called Nigeria should be an estate of our great grandfather Othman Dan Fodio. We must ruthlessly prevent a change of power. We use the minorities in the north as willing tools and the south as a conquered territory and never allow them to rule over us and never allow them to have control over their future.” The statement was said to have been made on October 12, 1960. The question is this: how can a Christmas message in Nigeria be sent in October? But liars never think of the implications of their lies. [/s]

Truth and falsehood

Now, looking at both statements very carefully, any sensible person should be able to see clearly, a distinction between truth and falsehood. The Premier’s Christmas message quoted above was made on Thursday, December 24, 1959 through a radio broadcast and it was published by all newspapers in the country including the vociferous ‘West African Pilot’ owned by Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe, the boisterous ‘Tribune’ owned by Chief Obafemi Awolowo, the clamorous ‘Daily Times’ jointly owned privately by certain prominent individuals at that time. It was equally published by many other smaller newspapers in Nigeria. All those newspapers are identifiable in Nigeria’s media history even though most of them are now defunct. On the other hand, the place and occasion of the fabricated statement credited to Ahmadu Bello was not indicated and cannot be traced in Nigeria’s newspaper history.



Evidence of fabrication

The first time any genuinely existing newspaper ever made reference to that fabricated statement was on November 13, 2002 (42 years after it was purportedly made. And ‘The Tribune’ newspaper that published it only claimed to have culled it from an online column published on October 24 2002 by a purported Yoruba Journalist (name withheld) who entitled it ‘the northern Agenda’. It can therefore be deduced that the statement was actually fabricated not in the 1960s but in October 2002, by the so-called columnist who credited it to a newspaper that never existed. The objective was to give it an undeserving credibility. What a country! What a people! What a shame! This is a typical case of an obvious mischief by heartless mischief makers just to fetch ephemeral fame and illegal income.

The belief was that once such a fabricated article appears on the internet and is ignorantly quoted by some inconsequential writers, it would automatically become a document of facts. That is Nigeria for you.



The Coup episode

January 15, 1966 was a Saturday like no other one in the history of Nigeria. It was on that day that the bitter seed which germinated and grew into the thorny tree that now feeds Nigerians with unpalatable political fruits was planted. The evil planting marked the beginning of an agonizing voyage of destiny on which Nigerians embarked without a compass. Coming up in the sacred month of Ramadan, the day actually came to confirm the axiomatic thought of an Arab poet who once asserted in a couplet that: “Nights are heavily pregnant; they give birth to wonders in the days….”



The preceding Friday

The preceding Friday (January 14, 1966) had been quite eventful for the then Premier of Northern Nigeria, Alhaji Sir Ahmadu Bello who was extraordinarily busy from morning to night. He had planned to travel to Sokoto with the then Ghana High Commissioner, Mr. Yakubu Tally, who had come to spend the weekend with him in appreciation of his role in ensuring the formation of the Organization of African Unity (OAU) through the merger of the Monrovia and Casablanca groups that had been mutually antagonistic on certain ideological grounds.

On that Friday, Sir Ahmadu Bello, as usual, observed the Jum’at Prayer in company of a retinue of his Ministers and government officials. He hosted the Premier of Western Nigeria, Chief Samuael Ladoke Akintola, (his political ally) in the newly formed Nigerian National Alliance (NNA). The latter had come to alert his colleague of a premonition hovering over Nigeria through an impending bloody coup d’etat that could clear the existing political stable wheat and chaff. His alert was not however strange to Sir Ahmadu Bello who had earlier got the same security hint.

The duo jointly reviewed the then volatile political situation in the country but failed to reach a conclusion on how to forestall the impending calamity.

Akintola’s effort

Chief S. L. Akintola, pleaded with his host to persuade the then Prime Minister, Alhaji Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, to act promptly to curb the impending disaster that was swinging restlessly like a pendulum over Nigeria before it could devour them all. But Sir Ahmadu Bello was reluctant. He believed that only the will of Allah could prevail in any given circumstance. His fear was that in the sacred month of Ramadan, it would be better to be martyred than to be an assassin. To him, any attempt to foil such a virtually mature coup would be so bloody that even the country would have nothing left to bleed with. By that belief, hardly did Sir Ahmadu Bello realise the implications of paving the way for a ruinous destiny to take its course.

The whole scenario was like a valedictory drama of fate in which the actors were blind to the denouement which the viewers had vividly perceived. And when it was time for the two Premiers to part, it became apparent that they were meeting perhaps for the last time alive. In a sober but sorrowful tone, the host bided his guest “bye for now,” and the guest, whose feet were already on the staircase of his aircraft on his way back to Ibadan replied: “if we ever get to see again”.

Thus, both spoke in coded language in the presence of their entourages who could not decode their language. By the time when cities started to return to life, in the wee hours of the following morning, the die had been cast as the picture had become clear that the night had tragically discharged the contents of its cargo to the amazement of the entire world. A bloody coup in Nigeria had swept the country’s democracy away with the rulers as casualties. It confirmed the maxim of the above quoted poem and the rest has since become history.


The major casualties

The heartless rascals in Nigerian military who struck in the January 1966 coup to terminate a democratically elected government must have foreclosed the consequences of their criminal action. They killed virtually all the major key players in the then Nigerian politics except those of Igbo extraction and of course, some non-Igbo people who were then in prisons. The Prime Minister, Alhaji Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa and the Minister of Finance, Chief Festus Okotie-Eboh were killed in Lagos. The Premier of Northern Nigeria, Sir Ahmadu Bello, was killed with his wife and some other people in Kaduna, the then Headquarters of Northern Nigeria. The Premier of Western Nigeria, Chief Samuel Akintola was killed in Ibadan, the then Headquarters of the South Western Nigeria while some military top brass of non-Igbo extraction were killed in different military barracks across the country.

Except for Lt. Col. Arthur Unegbe who was killed for being too close to Maimalari and could not be trusted, no other Igbo man of note, politician or military, was killed in that coup. As a matter of fact, if there was any feeling of the coup in the Eastern Nigeria at all, it was that of victory and heroism. The top military officers who were killed in the senseless coup included: Brig. S. A. Ademulegun (South West); Brig. Zakari Maimalari (North East); Col. Kur Mohammed (North West); Lt. Col. J. Y. Pam (North Central); Col. S. A. Shodeinde (South West); Lt. Col. Largema (North Central); Lt. Col. A. G. Unegbe (South East); S/Lt. James Odu (Mid West) and a host of others.

The false allegations

After the dust had settled, it became evident that virtually all the planners of that coup as well as its executors were of Igbo extraction. Thus, the other ethnic groups who were severely affected saw the coup as a tribal one. But much more than that, the Muslims in the country saw it as a religious coup that could not be sensibly justified or defended, the killing of Chiefs Akintola and Okotie-Eboh notwithstanding. This was because the then Governor of Eastern Nigeria, Sir Francis Akanu Ibiam was as deeply involved in religious matters as Sir Ahmadu Bello. The one was a Vice-President of the World Council of Churches. The other was the Vice-President of the Muslim World League. If religion was therefore the reason for the coup, the two of them ought to have been killed for bigotry. But history entails a variety of interpretations especially in a society where conscience hardly plays a role.



Coup planners and executors

That overwhelming majority of the planners of that coup as well as its executors were of Igbo extraction could not have been a mere coincidence. It is particularly notable that the chief beneficiary of the coup (Major-General Johnson Aguiyi Ironsi) was also of Igbo extraction. Almost all the military appointments after the coup were for men of Igbo extraction and none of these, except Hassan Katsina and Muhammadu Shuwa was a Muslim. How else could a coup be tribal and religious in? After all, as far back as 1953, a frontline Igbo politician had set such agenda for his tribe’s men when he quoted as saying that “Ibos’ domination of Nigeria is a matter of time”.



Nigeria’s founding fathers

Despite all said above, the great fathers of Nigeria’s independence left a legacy that can be called a footprint on the sands of time. By whatever standard they are measured today, the late Sardauna of Sokoto, Alhaji Ahmadu Bello; Nigeria’s first and only Prime Minister, Alhaji Abubakar Tafawa Balewa; the first Premier of Western Region, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, Nigeria’s first President, Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe as well as Mallam Aminu Kano, Chief SL Akintola and Chief Denis Osadebey were all exemplary in their styles of life given the circumstances of their governance, their personal weaknesses notwithstanding.

No matter what those weaknesses might be, their legacy was a fortune which amazingly turned into misfortune in the hands of their successors. Thus, the great hope which those fathers had embedded into our destiny as a people became colonized and turned into personal property by their political heirs. Were those great fathers to wake up from their graves today and see what has become of their sweat, they would just shake their heads in sorrow and return quietly into their graves without comments. Yet, the situation remains unchanged today as tribalism and religion take the front burner of Nigerian politics. Where can we go from here?

SamuelAnyawu:

It changes everything bro.. Stop padding issues here. 80% of Kanuris do not speak Hausa...There 8s no fight amongst them because the Kanuris never gave the Fulanis any opoortunity to conquer

Nope. It does not change anything. You're living in the past. And you're purely lying because 80% of Kanuri speaks Hausa.

SamuelAnyawu:
This is why i love the Kanuris they don't give the Fulanis any breathing space. That is Why the Fulanis/Danfodio avoided that region...


There is no Emir in Kanuri Land

It doesn't change anything. Hausa Fulani Kanuri are still 1. Both the 3 speaks the Hausa language and many other Northern tribes. And there is no fight among these tribes.

MossLuv:
Forget about the messenger. read carefully and get the truth in the message. I'm part of the north but I can tell u what op said is nothing less than truth. ask a real Hausa man they will tell you what they having pass through in the hands of Fulani people. Fulani are the most terrible people in the world.

Both you and the ops are liars. There was no point in time sardauna made that statement attributed to him. The press have said it was fake and real message which is on Independence day was published. But you guys re still quoting your home cooked trash and claiming sardauna.

I don't know when concocted statements made by the like of the mad man called "Fani Kayode" becomes a fact.

Ebubemg:
saw that one in the first picture on Monday in Mile 2

Eyewithness

Blue3k:
You said it all. The only thing that's stopping the port from opening is the access road and it needs to be concessioned. The state government should be pushing for it to be concessioned at same time as Onitsha.

Boro is in Niger state. Is the water connected to other countries or what. Can goods be imported via the port instead of via Lagos route? Also which 1 is water inland port.

jaxxy:
It is! The presidency and state govt ahud have called necessary parties to order and discussions or place a curfew. How can any form of killings be going on and u say this. There are clear solutions to this problem if only people will take responsibility and be decisive.

I still did not agree with you. It is not solidly the fault of the government but the people involve. Unless the two parties want peace it will never happen. From 1960 to this time how many government do we have? Has the crises stop? No only when Sardauna build grazing reserves. Are the communities influence by opposition party and CAN against ranching or not?

The owners of the land must 1st ne respected and then whoever come in must abide my community agreements and laws. I can not come to kano state and do just as i like because im a Nigerian there are the repects i must have to certain areas.

Which type of respect are you talking here? I believe the only respect is not to allowed cows to enter peoples land. You should also know that respect is reciprocal, the community must also respect the herders by not allowing criminals among them to kill them or their cows.

You are welcome to Kano anytime anywhere. Come and see thousands of non indigens in Kano. They buy and build houses and business even when same respect is not accorded to them in certain. The only respect people of kano demand is you are free to practice your religion without attacking their own.

Yes grazing has exist bt as development, population growth and many other factors sets in things can change and land mass reduces.

This is absolutely not the reason. The reasons are simple:

1. Maintenance culture: Failure of subsequent government to maintain such reserves. As Nigeria is known for poor Maintenace culture.
2. The people of such communities intentionally extend their land to such areas. Again Nigerians are known for that, if government is silent on illegality we make it legal and continue to do.

I was discussing with a friend 2day in western countries, denmark, us they don't hv clashes because there are modern ways of keeping cattles and still getting them feed without these cattles being a nuisance, their grass and stored and supplied to them at the ranch or fields. All this madness is totally uncalled for and archaic. We are not barbarians pls we shud coexist.

The above is what it is being opposed now. The opposition argument is the herdsmen should pay for the reserves and not the government.

Even Boko Haram that carries deadly attack on Muslim don't kill up to 3 thousand a year. Useless old retired fool.

NafeesaAA:
Inland waterways will reduce the pressure on our fragile road [s][/s]

If Baro inland water port is completed it will create over two million jobs to the teeming youths. It will help with the decongestion of Lagos ports. Northern Nigeria is land-locked with no single sea port, however if Baro port is actualized transportation hiccups would be drastically reduced.

Revenue will increase and millions dollars in foreign exchange will also be saved. Even the agricultural revolution will get a massive boost.

FG assures speedy completion of Baro River Port

The Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha has assured the Niger State Government that the Baro River Port is receiving a speedy attention by the Federal Government towards ensuring that it is commissioned this year.
The SGF stated this when he received Niger State Governor Abubakar Sani Bello in his office.

He also assured that all procurement processes are already completed and that the Central Bank of the Nigeria (CBN) has issued Letter of Credit while manufacturers have so far been committed.

“Giving the great economic importance of the Baro Port to the country, discussion on it resonated at the recent commissioning of the Dry Inland Cargo Port at Kaduna by Mr. President,” Mustapha said.

The governor in his remarks harped on the importance of the project and corroborated the assurance given by the SGF that the Baro River Port is getting a desired attention.

He also said that he was in the SGF Office to congratulate him on his appointment by President Muhammadu Buhari.

I am very happy Germany is gone, remain Argentina, Brazil and France. All these old champions should gerarahia.

But France should first eliminate Argentina for me in round of 16 then lose in quarter final.

jaxxy:
Ok good bt now based on ur facts u say they(Fulani herdsmen) reported to the authorities bt they weren't able to get the perpetrators so the fulanis unleashed terror?

What I am saying is nothing was done to the killers. Secondly the Birom community help in shielding the killers. Read the below.

1. On the 8th of June Four young Fulani men coming back from Kara Cattle market in Bukuru were shot immediately after Kassa Hill Military check point, less than 2Km from the check point.

2. Over 300 COWS were rustled between Fan, Dorowa and Jong Villages of Barkin Ladi LGA and Kadunu/Langai villages of Mangu LGA, when Military were sent to rescue and recover the COWS they received strong resistance from the armed Berom COW rustlers with even reports of some security men losing their lives. Up to date they’ve not been recovered.

3. On 12th of June at around 8pm some Fulani people of Quanpan LGA of plateau State coming back from Bukuru Kara market were shot at Kassa hill before Barikin Ladi LGA secretariat unfortunately one of them lost his life.

4. On June 13th a minor Jaafar Salihu herding his parents COWs, was killed at Nding Village also around Kassa hill and they removed his head till date the head wasn't recovered, he was buried like that

5. Then the last aggression took place on Jun 21st at about 6pm Some Fulani men Bala, Lawal and Ibrahim Kuwait on their way coming back from Kara market in Bukuru were shot, killed and their vehicle was set ablaze at Heipang village to be precise inside the railway round about, pictures attached.

6. A day after Sallah Jun 16th 2018 at about 14:00 hours some Hausa Boys of Barikin Ladi town driving a Vectra Opel vehicle with reg number JJN 54 CF heading to Mangu LGA narrowly escaped death with minor and major injuries and the car wrecked, as Berom youths launched an attacked on them in front of the Military Check point, what’s their offence? Ans: They are Muslims and the berom youths want to avenge an attack on some villages made by Fulani herders.

7. On Saturday 23rd Jun 2018 the people of Mangu blocked the highway and said nobody is going to pass until justice is done to one of their men that was killed in a Berom community between Dorowa village and Mangu Hale, until his demise he was a butcher and he went to collect his money from one of his customers he gives meat, he was simply killed because he is Muslim, is he a herdsman?
https://www.nairaland.com/4583305/fulani-indigenes-killed-berom-plateau

The cattles were taken to the south in just few days?

From 12 of June to the day of attack. You can do the maths.

Well if this is the real account i can only blame the authorities for not acting swift and decisive enough bt also there must hv been issues that lead to the attack on the cattles and herdsmen probably invading of their land so this takes us back to the drawing board to save lives wat must we do so all this totally stops.

You cannot say it's retaliatory attack only when the communities strike. Even that of Fulani is retaliatory attack. This fight did not start today, it's older than almost all living Nigerians.


It's not the fault of authority, give Plateau the whole of Nigerian Army it won't be peaceful. Only they the people involved can solve their problem. What can the authority do when people involved choose to sheild their criminal brothers?

I suggest we make an evaluation of lands in the north and see how sufficient dey are for grazing and if not then they can explore other areas and state based on agreements with the state government not and not just federal. Laws and guidelines must be put in place in other for everyone to leave in peace and orderliness.

Grazing reserves existed in 1965 built by the Premier of the Northern Nigeria Sir Ahmadu Bello (The Sardauna of sokoto). The people of such communities extend their farming land gradually until the reserves are no more.

The government want to restore such reserves now but many people are opposing it.

Empiree:
Shaking my head for Nigeria. It is its own enemy of progress

And those who Killed them where even honored. And their dead pictures become object of mockery to the north by the killers Kingsmen.

sunny2k:
that video happened in keana Nassarawa state

Useless liar help us with the news on how it happens in Nassarawa. Hypocrite.

jaxxy:
When 300 cattles are stolen what shud be the next reaction? Report to the authorities and not go on a killing spree. Those who stole the cattles will ne found and dealt with accordingly bt the herdsmen went totally wrong and worsened the situation. It almost seems planned and the missing cattles where d perfect excuse to attack. Bt if it was a true incident that their cattles got missing they didn't go about the right way.

All this issues are happening because of poor leadership as fare as im concerned. Buhari doesn't talk he hasn't held any press conference to speak on this issue or has he? He need to address Nigerians directly not tru his media aids. So people know he's serious

You're capital wrong.

They killed Fulani herdsmen and also rustle their cows.

They reported to police While police are trying to go after the criminal, the Birom people shade the criminals and hide them. They also ensure the cattles are taken down South for sell.

All the above news can be seen in Nairaland and premium time. .

You only made assumptions without knowing the facts. Stop typing trash.
