Pls tell me you are joking
Is this supposed to be a solution?

ok. The farmers spray the chemicals and all the cows dies. do you think that will stop the killings? Is killing another persons animal not a crime in itself. Do you think you can stop a crime by commiting another?

More importantly, to show you your suggestion is one of the most ridiculous ideas, what will you do when the herdsmen attacks the community for killing their cows? Will you spray chemicals for their guns also embarassed Or you think they will just take it as a act of God that lots of cows just dies after grazing on a particular community?

This is why this country is in this situation. We lack deep thinking. We feared this will happen because we suspected PDP does not have the right intellectual capacity to be a good opposition and put APC on their toes.

What we should do is continue to mount pressure on the government and do its constitutional role of protecting lives and properties. Get justice done. Arrest the killers on both sides. Seize the killers' cows and farms and hand over to ministry of agric or something or put an army barrack there - just build a barrier like ranching as has been suggested.

Killing the cows is stup!d and counter productive.
This bloodletting must stop.

Are you suggesting farms should be seized? The herdsmen are the aggressors in all of this and it is a pity the government is not doing anything to protect the farmers.
My take on this is simple, if the government will not protect you, then you have a God given right to protect yourself and your family by all means necessary.
The idea that you can toil daily in the African sun, plant your crops and then have some cows to feed on it is unbelievably unjust.

Why don't you all stop eating beef for about 2 years?

You can also mix snuff and pepper and spray all over the farm,when the cows go in there after sniffing they would collapse...heard a particular group of people did that against the herdsmen

You are not wicked, you are EVIL. So you want the communities to die in numbers from the herdsmen guns when they come and "take revenge"? Or you are naive enough to think the cattle owners will just let it go?
Although Nnamdi Kanu your Ipob Lord ran away on merely hearing sounds of fire crackers from Nigerian Army. With this silly proposals, I hope you and your fellow ipob yoots will be brave enough to go and defend the communities when the herdsmen return to take revenge. I hope you won't just sit behind the keyboard and be typing craps calling it solution and be posting pictures of the consequences of your suggestions.

You lot were ready to sit and dance on the street for the 2face rally against the government a couple of months ago. What is wrong in doing same now to pressurize the government to act in this case?

more realistic thanthan not buying beef

Ah! But why is boycotting beef unrealistic?
Re: No Need To Fight The Herdsmen..just Do This. by ChimaAgbalajob: 4:40pm On Jan 15, 2018
Apart from spraying pesticides on the grass around your farms, People must seriously boycott cow meat for at least six month to register their displeasure. Eat chicken, goat meat, pork meat, turkey meat and fish!

Boycotting the products they kill your brothers just to sell to you is the greatest common sense anyone can have.

99% of the beef consumed in Nigeria is consumed by southerners.
No northerner wants high fat from beef, but they will gladly sell it to the southerners.

Boycott of beef for goat, pork,chicken,turkey, and fish will be the BEST antidote to Herdsmen killings and destruction. They are buying the arms used in killing these people withthe money they get from cow rearing. Yet, they won't pay one kobo for land to do their business decently?
