Sambisa Forest.
Area: 60,000 square kilometres (23,000 sq mi)

Enugu state of Nigeria is 7,161 square kilometers (2,765 sq mi).

Nigeria's problem.

Nigeria needs grazing field/land for cattle owned by Nigerian leaders. Our hard working minister of agriculture is importing grasses from Brazil and will need where to plant the grasses and feed our all important cattle. He said our President and commander in chief, who is also a cattle rearer, asked him to get 50,000 hectares of grazing reserves within 6 months or.....

We have also flushed out Boko Haram terrorists from Sambisa forest so there is no threat again. Or haven't we?
......................................
Is there any reason known to man why we shouldn't convert Sambisa forest to a national grazing field and gather all the herdsmen in Nigeria to that place, disarm them and allow them to use the facility and transport their ready for sale cows by rail or trailers to wherever needed?

Why should we make laws to compel Enugu State Government to provide land for grazing when we have abundant land at Sambisa?

Convince me that those seeking to appropriate other people's land for grazing, whereas they have more land, do not have other sinister motives.

Please no long grammar, just convince me and I will be convinced.

Thanks.

Sambisa is very good for grazing reserve

This has always been my suggestion.

Even the Chief of army staff said it, that sambisa is bigger than Enugu state.
Since only Boko haram live in Sambisa forest, we should eject them and use the massive fertile ground as the national grazing field.

But those interested in annexing land from the southern states won't agree. The want southern land for "grazing"

Nice suggestion
