A Fulani group, Kulen Allah Cattle Reares Association of Nigeria (KACRAN) has demanded the establishment of Ministry of Animal Resources by the Federal Government to address numerous challenges confronting the livestock sub-sector in Nigeria.

It stated that this will be in recognition of the pivotal role that the sub-sector plays in sustaining the nation’s livestock industry and contributing to Nigeria’s socio-economic development.


In a statement issued Tuesday in Damaturu, KACRAN’s National President Khalil Mohammed also urged the Federal Government to as a matter of utmost urgency, focus on issues of policy formulation and programme implementation peculiar to the Ministry or alternatively give animal husbandry services equal budgetary provision as that of arable farming.

“Not only the creation of this Ministry, considering the diverse and often complex aspects of pastoral production, and significant position of the livestock industry in the national economy, we also call on Mr President to kindly appoint somebody who has very vast knowledge and experience on livestock production as a Minister, who will cooperate with his staff to achieve the Ministry’s desired objectives or alternatively give Directorate of animal husbandry services equal budgetary allocation as that of arable farming,” he advised.

The association further advised the federal government and 19 northern governors to implement polices and programmes aimed at addressing the plights of pastoral communities, tackle the issue of alleged injustice against herdsmen and earmark not less than 20 per cent of available land for pastoral production activities among others.


“As a matter of government policy, all development projects (agricultural or otherwise) should be considered in program design and implementations on pastoral livelihood, ensuring that adequate provision is made for livestock production. An environmental impact assessment of such projects should be undertaken prior to projects commencement.

“Regional nature of pastoralism requires cooperation among countries sharing common borders, which necessitates the linkages of Nigeria’s efforts of pastoral Renaissance to Cameron, Chad, Niger and Benin. The Federal Government should mount a strong lobby aimed at persuading all the neighboring countries to join in its efforts of sedentarisation of the pastoral production system.

“The Ministry under discussion should be given mandate or authority to identity foreign nations which possess livestock productions skills, to establish bilateral relationship on how the two side would put head together to develop livestock industry in Nigeria,” Mohammed demanded.

I totally agree with this suggestion. I think it is a brilliant one. It sounds forward-looking and developmental enough for both Federal and state governments to adopt and implement. First, it will solve security problems as extension officers will hear herdmen complaints first-hand and timely to initiate immediate resolution. Second, it will increase livestock production, create employment, expand meat production and boost foreign exchange earnings.

However, the only problem is that it is coming from a Fulani group that is more sensible than Miyetti Allah, which is actually the troublesome group. Will adopting this idea restore corporate sanity and remove bloodletting tendency from Miyetti Allah? If the answer is positive then we can shout "Eureka!", knowing we will soon sleep with two eyes closed.

Naija de God's hands oo

Ministry of Animal resources, department of nigger conservation

LMAO.

It has started.....

Buhari will head the ministry with his gay cattle.

Next they will demand a country inside Nigeria.

Stop the movement of cows from one farm, state, community to another.

Any other solution that don't bear the above is evil, deliberate and ground plan.

The Nigerian police need radio not killer herdsmen

Nothing for una
Fuckards

Watch how bubu will make a speedy implementation for this...

When Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Called nigeria ZOO,

why didn't your nigeria government establish a ministry that will dialogue with peaceful Ipob but instead your president send his terrorist army to kill them.

This is not about creating a Ministry for Fulani dialogue. It is about upgrading livestock production in Nigeria. As opportunity opens up, don't be alarmed if Igbo investors take advantage if they consider it profitable.

Ferd ministry of use of our natural resources

when a country have a president with a WAEC as his qualification every animal will become a special advicer

See what Nigeria has reduced to. And someone still believe Fulanisation of this country is not in progress as Obasanjo stated. This is what u get when u chose ignoramus and jihadist as ur leader. Tinubu will surely regret his alliance with this gworo chewing old man piloting the affairs of this country.

What of ministry of motor spare parts

Ministry of cocoa

The southern part of Nigeria will continue to be oppressed by Fulani herdsmand who is only 9% of Nigeria population. The igbo and the yoruba have to work together so that they can be able to deliver themselves away from the Fulani in as much the 2 tribe continue to hate eachother that will always give the Fulani the opportunity to rule over them till return of the white jesus and Arab Muhammad..

They want their own Ministry - Ministry of Animal Resources

After killing hundreds of innocent Nigerians?



Wow

Are they aware there is a ministry called
Ministry of Agriculture?

Lol

Ok. It is noted.
Over to the presidency.

Bigots and tribal supremacists will not like what he said, but there's some sense in it.

Nigeria is really a zoo.


Imagine some low budget,brain dead herders demanding that a "ministry of animal resources" be created for them.

If not for some daft and slow imbeciles who claim to be sophisticated,I wonder how some band of misfits will have the guts to make demands in a federation where they don't contribute anything except terrorism and death.

Why not ministry of cow resources
