It’s this cost effective and sustainable. If the government starts such huge capital projects in the North it is still we in the south especially ss and Sw that will complain. I think the government I look for a simpler, practical and less capital intensive solution. Is there any? We have lots of natural vegetation that are abandoned and not even used for farming in many states. Is it logical to then spend so much money we don’t hv building an artificial one up in the north?

Is there a better solution or is that the only solution?

Does FG not have land in every state? How are you sure they not building the Ruga on one of the FG lands in Benue State?

itsme01:
If you had taken your time to educate yourself on the subject you wont be asking this question.... is it a crime for black people to read before reacting? atleast study the subject matter

Dpharisee:
You are the one who is actually ignorant.
The FG has informed Nigerians that the Federal government owns lands in states that are gazetted, the FG can decide to use its own lands in states without the Governors to set up Ruga

Meanwhile, they tried to divert our attention with COZA rape accusationsbut failed
We will continue to tell Buhari that Ruga is not welcome because cattle rearing is private business

Too many people are ignorant of Nigerian laws... only a state government can issue a land to any one,... if Federal Government got a land in Benue then hold Ortom responsible, and if he acts dumb, make your state lawmakers threaten him with impeachment.

If you dont know anything about the laws governing you, often times you act wrongly thinking you are acting rightly... Protest should be lead to the Governors offices and State Assemblies or else FG would be unstoppable

take my state Oyo for instance, Ajimobi sternly refused giving land to FG even after Audu Ogbeh visited to lobby him, and am sure Makinde doesnt have plans for that either.. Ajimobi issued land to Ameachi for Ibadan Dry port and to Fashola for the FG mass housing scheme

As Humans and not Animals we must not only cry and rant, we must offer solutions to our recurrent problems

Northern state should prioritize building more Dams for irrigation and other purposes.. Global warming is just in its preliminary stage and North is facing challenges, look at Egypt and what they did with Nile, Even UAE, Isreal and Saudi Import soils and build Dams to make life in the desert a wonderful one .. this i think is more sustainable.. Africans cant just migrate everytime they face chalenges

You are right about those other countries. Food security informed and motivated their decisions unlike the Nigerian case. The present administration is hellbent on a sectional policy and agenda covered up with lies and propaganda.

Kennydoc:
Taa, comot! So because FG said 12 states applied for it, you want me to believe that Benue and Taraba governors applied to have Ruga settlements built in their states, when they have been insisting on either ranching or nothing?
I have no reason to trust this FG, not one!

There is no point arguing with you, you know the truth deep down, choose what to believe, majority have chosen what to believe.

He knew all these and still went ahead to kick off RUGA in Benue despite the Governor against it.

itsme01:
Then why are they silent? especially Ortom.... Every governor from South both APC and PDP had been making stern statements telling FG and Audu ogbeh fvck off... ecxept middlebelt state officials, why?

psalmylee:
Buhari is building Refinery in the North for Oil located in the South & Cattle Ranches in the South for Cows located in the North

itsme01:
you are bold with your ignorance... FG through garba shehu said only willing states that provided lands would be used, and no land were gazetted for grazing routes

https://www.msn.com/en-xl/news/other/ruga-settlements-not-for-fulani-alone-says-presidency/ar-AADEsq6

read properly before misinforming yourself

Coza rape is unfortunate but its non of our business as the courts are open, leave FG out of this..

Cattle rearing is a private business so is Nollywood, if Goodluck jonathan can intervene with government intervention fund with nollywood, then Buhari can intervene in the cattle business so far they pay back every penny and open grazing stops with imediate effect

Pataricatering:
There isn’t a single state from the south involved in the program !

nasoeb:
But honestly, we are our own problem. Nigerians are so good with anything theory. We have collectively identify the common problem to Nigeria's growth, but we will not do anything practical about it but choose to complain. The igbos will see the killings of yorubas as a yoruba problem, and the yoruba will see the killing of benue people as north central problem. But we will NOT see that there is a common killer who is determined to "kill" Nigerians in every region (just turn by turn). We just feel relax because for the time been, it's happening in the other region, but let me burst your bubble, the fulanis are not out to kill yorubas or benues or efik and take their lands, they wish and want to kill ALL OF US, from every region and tribe, reduce our population, enthrone their emirs, then force everyone to accept islam. Fela was so right, Nigerians are always too afraid to die.
Stopping fulani and their agenda is so so so easy and can happen in less than a month if every region sees it as a Nigerian problem.
The fulanis are having their ways because they understand the simple division between us Nigerians. They know killing benues, Ijaws will not come to their rescue,..... killing igbos, the yorubas will not come for their rescues.
Let's ask ourselves some simple important questions,
1. whats the population of the fulanis?
2. How many of this fulanis can be in every states killing at each time including their brotgers from niger and chad etc.
If all the regions (youths probably) can harness and fight eliminate every fulanis in their states/regions, cordinate ourselves with arms go into these forests and kill these guys, see an injury to one state or region as injury to every good Nigerian, fighting and killing them from every corner simultaneously, we would have reduce these fulanis to bearest minimum that they cant pose as threat anymore.

BlackLaw:
Let's not deceive ourselves, we are under a government that has no regard for due process or law.
As the statement attached here shows, Benue state government did not at any time apply to join their evil scheme. But the Federal government went ahead to implement it despite objections raised by the state government.
Don't be naive about these issues, the federal government can and has bypassed the state government and laws in pursuit of their fulanization goal. What enforcement mechanism do you think is available to the state government?

All of the killings, all of the kidnappings, all of the arson was for this purpose. The attacks were meant to soften us up to this evil initiative, this is their endgame.
It is all part of the plan.
The time has come however, for the citizens to stand up and say NO!
We must RESIST, RESIST and RESIST.

i havent seen Ortom argue with them when they made the statement he gave them lands

BlackLaw:
Of course you won't see Ortom arguing with them from your bedroom. Especially when you don't do any research on the topic.
Samuel Ortom for all of his flaws have been steadfast in this matter.
He has severally condemned the idea of ruga or grazing reserve.
Perhaps the screenshot statement (by the Benue state government) attached to my comment can help with your research. Cheers.
