This story is more believable than the crap about Falae's abduction.

The government needs to come up with a comprehensive national plan to resolve this grazing issue.

We must set aside grazing highways nationwide to make up for the encroachment of the herdsmen's grazing areas which they've used for hundreds of years.

Until we do this, expect your crops located along the paths of the herdsmen historical grazing area to be eaten by cows, by hook or crook.

Please tell them, their lands are Fulani grazing highway. Someone needs to put you out of your miserable existence. Hopefully, SW land owners and villagers will learn before its too late.

Why are the farmers too foolish Once they know Fulani is heading their way or is around, all they need are a few drops of cyanide, lace shallow water wells in their fields and the maize cobs strategically. Fulani grazes his cattle, his cattle takes a lick from the water. Kaboom, within days half his herd is gone, then Fulani will always keep 2 kilometers away from the farms. Unless fulani herdsmen know there is a cost to their impunity, they will always graze their herd in other peoples farm yards. Anyways, this is Fulani Yaluba thing, should keep out of it. Yaluba will not work up even if Fulani grazes his cattle in their backyard.

Fulani set to install Emir in Akure

The response to this Fulani menace.....must be swift....must be more than proportionate.....and must be finite.... ....just watch and see....the government has been given enough chances....

You are an animal. I am a benin man and shame on Seun and all his Mods for fostering the division of Nigeria along tribal lines. That's why i don't respect Nairaland. There are no laws. Everybody do as they like and tthe mods come after people dey feel like because they are having a bad day themselves. Useless Nigerians. All of them

so you don't know when someone is being sarcastic

Ilekeh shymexx Zimony Mayoroflagos what do you think of this comment?

Is this a subtle/subliminal claim to our ancestral land, our heritage? You guys must not keep quiet!

Nduchuks is a clown known for reducing serious issues to satires in the name of a non-existing One Nigeria.
He does not need a response everytime he writes, definitely not on this one.

Barely two weeks after some fulani herdsmen attacked and kidnapped the former Secretary to the Government of the Federation SGF, Chief Olu Falae, some herdsmen have again destroyed the same farmland.

The farm Manager Bruno ‎Akhigbodemen conducted newsmen round the farm located at Ilado in Akure North Council area of Ondo State

Over one kilometer plantation of maize was destroyed during the invasion at about 2am on Monday.

‎Akhigbodemen said that the herdsmen arrived the farm with their cows and wrecked the havoc despite the horrible experience the workers and their boss had in the last two week sequel to their menace‎.

He pointed out that ‎effort by the guards to prevent the destruction of the farmland were rebuffed as they were threatened by the herdsmen until their cows grazed to their satisfaction.

The farm Manager said that the former Finance minister has reported the latest destruction to the state Police Command for necessary action.

Vanguard learnt that following the complaint by Chief Falae, some detectives from the Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS) ‎were immediately deployed to the farm on Monday.

They reportedly combed the neighboring villages for the suspects but they were unable to make any arrest.

Report had it that the search still continues as some detectives still keep vigil in the village.

It was gathered that the police authority has invited leaders of the herdsmen in the state who stood surety for those that were arrested and released during the last invasion when over N500, 000 worth of farm products were destroyed.

‎Akhigbodemen described the destruction of the farm last week sunday as devastating.

He appealed to the government and the security operatives to act decisively on the menace of the herdsmen.

Chief Falae could not be reached for comment on the destruction of his farmland which is coming after his kidnapped and payment of N5m ransom to free him from his abductors.

It would be recalled that the former Minister for Finance has been having issues with the fulani herdsmen ‎whose cows have on several occasions destroyed his farmland.

He is billed to travel abroad this weekend for medical treatment after his horrifying experience which he described as ” hell”.

The latest destruction according to findings is the fifth within two months.

Before his kidnap barely two weeks ago, two fulani herdsmen were arrested and detained for destroying over N500,000 worth of farm products on the farm.



They were released after some of their leaders wrote an undertaker that they would pay compensation and would not encroach on the farm again.



Barely three weeks after the episode, Chief Falae was abducted by some gun wielding Fulani herdsmen on the same farmland and was released after 72 hours.



No fewer than three policemen have been deployed to his Oba Ile residence since his kidnap last month.



Contacted on the Sunday invasion and destruction of the farm by the Fulani herdsmen, the Police Image Maker Femi Joseph said that he is not aware of the incident.



Joseph was recently posted to the state and made the Command spokesman last week.

they can't try this in Mbaise,they ll be killed and eaten alongside their cow ancestors!!

My bad if its so.

cuvox:
oga easy... the dude is being sarcastic

Deadly rebuttal? These fulani herdsmen only do that when you confront them face to face!

Mr Man, the water pond was lying fallow on its own, it was the cattle that strayed to drink it!

You guys make these fulanis seem like demi-gods. I have seen a fulani herdsman cry (real tears) in Gwagwalada, when his cow entered a mud ditch, he did all his best to bring the cow out but the animal had broken its leg.

Fulanis are basically cave men... the water pond could have been pesticide mixture, BUT because they invaded the farm without permission their cows would just drink the poisoned water.

You have to use your head when dealing with barbaric people... you are talking of pesticide + poison mixture lying fallow on a crop farm.

Even booby trapped mud hole traps can break the legs of their cattle...

Common sense: Once your crop farm becomes toxic/deadly to their cattle, they would NEVER come back to your crop farm!

AprokoMan:
after that, make sure u leave that community because they would come back with a deadly rebuttal. these people carry aks and daggers without license....and the govt is aware but would do nothing to stop them

One nlder talked about how they sold sickly dead cows to the people of Onitsha......They will sell it back to the South.

Why Fulanis are dangerous:

1. They're good disguise for boko harams.......which can spread rapidly to the south with their help

2. They provide 80% of Nigeria's meat .......... possibility of poisoned meat

3. They can kill and run away. Whose going to identify them?

They make the perfect weapons for the north.

hurricaneChris:
Don't even know what my reactions are.
Some people actually think they aren't herdsmen of Fulani origin. That they are Igbos.

So, I better keep quiet.

The igbos don't rear cattle.They are not farmers and cattle owners like buhari and hell ruffians.

No, we cannot destroy water resources and crops in the interest of stopping this problem, thats counter effective. The proper approach is to attack the problem head on.

josephola2:
. people like you are the problem of Nigeria, I hate it when people don't fell the truth especially my Yoruba brother just because of sentiment, how can IBO be the herdsmen attacking the farms, may be the book haram are also Americans.

Sarcasm my brother, sarcasm. Those who will understand, will understand.

‎Akhigbodemen described the destruction of the farm last week sunday as devastating.

Victims of Fulani herdsmen should stop feeling helpless but brace up for the security of their lives and properties. Waiting on a govt who does not show any willingness to curtail the menace is akin to idiocy.

Life is a gift that should be protected within ones right.

23 And the wandering shepherds and tribesmen of King Bubu Son of Hari the cattle rearer, who had forge unholy alliance with She-cow and his band of brigands, invaded the fields of a retired Chief Scribe – Fala, the son of Aye in the land of Yoruga, who had allied with King Bubu Son of Hari the cattle rearer. Thereupon, these wandering shepherds laid waste to his fields, and destroy his crops. They took Fala, the son of Aye captive for several days and would not let home go until several bags of cowries in ransom had been paid. And they warn him sternly not to speak about them least they will come again for him!

Maybe, he's violated the term of his release. Sad all the same.

jonnieoneng:
DON'T BOTHER POISONING THE POOR COWS.THEY ARE NOT THE ONES AT FAULT .IT IS THE FULANI THAT BROUGHT THEM TO THE FARM THAT NEEDS TO BE DEALT WITH SEVERELY .IF THEY HAVE AK 47 THEN I THINK IT IS TIME FOR US TO BEGIN TO GET OURS.

Your line of thought shows you can't be a successful war commander
Since they've decided to be daft,there's no need attacking the Fulani directly. All you need to do is attack their cows either by poisoning their water sources or spraying lethal amounts of delayed action pesticides on those grasses they feed on.
When their "gold bullion" start dying inexplicably in large numbers, nobody would force them to leave that area.

Master Sun in his art of war said,"never attack the strong points of the enemy, kos it leads to unnecessary loss of lives and resources. The best general is the one who wins a war without having to fight

Ezenwammadu:
Igbo herdsmen should stop this nonsense

Igbo abi "Igbo"? We have refused to tell ourselves the truth. Always chasing shadows. The south is screwed. We have been so taken advantage of by the north. The day we allow merit to reign in our national life, is the day we will move forward.

Let us keep blaming "yeebos" for all our problems. One day, it will be too late to stay together as a nation, with the amount of nepotism and tribalism being encouraged in every facet of our national life.

nnachukz:
Cowards everywhere. They know themselves, it is only here they get mouth.

We don't have guns and cutlasses.We only say our opinion through social media.

Why won't they encroach and destroy farm land. Since no arrest was made by the police and compensation was paid for the release of chief falae, then it is not a crime to kidnap, demand for compensation and destroy farm land.

Good!!!

Your types make good war commanders

Those Tse Tse Flies again?

We need to stop complaining to government and take law into our on hands.

Until we give those bastards 'Ilaro Treatment', they'll continue to give us headache.

warrior01:
I hope Ndigbo would come to the rescue before the case of ilorin is repeated again

...mbok, tell me more

How about giving gun licenses,like AK 47,to farmers to protect themselves against fulani herdsmen?I bet,if this measure is taken,the killings of farmers by fulani herdsmen will reduce or stop

Ilekeh:
For which they used a hundred years? Expect crops to be eaten by cows?

nduchuks I know you're Fulani but please stop making your ignorance so obvious.

Why can't they destroy their farmlands in the North? Why bring the madness to the South?

Your illiterate Fulani herdsmen have no respect for the owners of the land or their lives.

Yea, we need to set up a national plan and restrict Fulani menace to the North. I doubt the demons would follow any plan should we allow them to come to the south.

oh you just now finding out ? that he is a Fulani putting heavy damage to Yoruba and Igbo friendship ?

More confusion surfacing now and then. So interesting. The Fulanis and Buhari know that the Yoruba can only bark will NEVER bite. They are even ready to kidnap Olu Falae again and again, nothing will happen.

azpekuliar:
What encroachment are you talking about? Are you trying to insinuate that farmers have begun to encroach on lands that were hirtherto meant for grazing?

This clashes came to the fore in the last 16 years as a result of Climate change and Desertification. As a result, the so-called "historical grazing areas" have been taken over by the desert and not by the farmers as your post seems to suggest. It is the Fulani's who are now being driven to encroach on arable land by Desertification.

In addition to your suggestion, unless the Federal government also has an action plan to fight Desertification then these clashes will continue.

That fellow is just a loser

"Historical grazing land of the fulani herdsmen" when did fulani herdsmen start entering Ondo state? The shameless liar @ nduchucks wants us to believe that the yoruba farmers who are using land Inherited from their ancestors are the "criminals" encroaching on another man's land
Imagine the stupid thing

Ok tell us how the igbos/Ijaws/Benue/Calabar/etc have bitten.

Make this interesting.

How have you guys curbed Fulani menace?

Make this interesting.

You know what I think Nigeria's problem is....... they always want Yorubas to do the deeds for them.

OfoIgbo:
Chest beating exercise *BIG YAWN*

Why are so bothered about this anyway........is it because it somehow fulfils your perverted fantasy of stirring up a tribal war between two of your enemies....Our people are more nuanced in the approach....failing which.....

If any Igbo can tell us how they've curbed Fulani menace, we're ready to listen.......

Since una talk say Yorubas are cowards.

Any group that wants to distribute ideas, make we hear am.

Pls guys stop complaining about fulani cow some folks took my advise nor to fight them again and it has be working mistaken it for boko haram attack.

Anytime you noticed them coming poison the grass land and any stream or pool they might want to drink from that is all since buhari and police are helpless no need fighting them let poison do the job with no body to charge for it. Anything fulani i hate with passion beside they are not even Nigerians

They are lucky my dad is not to farming I would dare them to come the farm and see if any of them both their useless cow and the idiots herdsmen will stand on their feet again. What I will give them will last 72 hours in their body no doctor under the heaven will revive them. Silly idiots. No apology pls.
