"The Federal Government has decided to ban the movement of cattle to solve perennial clashes between herdsmen and farmers in the country.
The decision was taken at the Presidential Villa in Abuja yesterday during the National Economic Council (NEC) meeting chaired by Vice President Mohammed Namadi Sambo.
Those at the meeting included Secretary to the Government of the Federation Anyim Pius Anyim, the governors of Adamawa, Anambra, Bayelsa,

Benue, Bauchi, Borno, Cross River, Ebonyi, Kaduna, Kebbi, Ondo, Niger, Plateau States as well as the acting governor of Taraba State and the deputy governors of Kogi and Abia States.
Addressing journalists after the three-hour closed-door meeting, Benue State Governor Gabriel Suswam said the council resolved to phase out cattle movement because of the security problems it had created in some states.

He said the council agreed that the Federal Ministries of Agriculture and National Planning would go round the six geo-political zones to sensitize farmers and herdsmen on the need to stop cattle movement."
