God bless His Excellence, President Mohammadu Buhari (GCFR)


History will always remember you for your doggedness and giant strides against all odds.

History will remember how you stared into the eyes of mighty enemies and defined a path.

You were a gift who came to redeem us.

We do will remember how critics rubbished your administration when same people applaud you after your demise.

We will immortalise your legacies, imbibe your rules and practice your bravery and charisma

What year has the Fulani's been cohabiting with the southerners happily? We did had conflicts then prone in the middle-belt mostly which was a result of the region being a food basket that inhabits both crop producers and animal farmers.

Suddenly, A Fulani became president and all hell let loose. This same lots have been in the south before democracy got re-established in Nigeria.

Yes, I agree, They using the trade to perpetrate evil. But why is everyone now shooting every option that comes with fairness.

Lets remove sentiments and come to be table with all fairness and sincerity.

Politically motivated hatred.

honestly speaking if it were any other group of ppl but the fulanis involved in this ruga scheme nobody would have raised dust on it bur the fulanis known for wat they are u certainly cant blame ppl viewing this ruga scheme with suspicion .nobody wants to wake up one mornin with his head hacked off or his insides spilling out with his village or hometown raided by rampaging fulanis.if president buhari is so sincere about solving this cattle issue he could build dams in d north to nurture the land for d cattle.anyway thank God no south south or south east state was included and if there is is phase 2 to include some southern states as some users here are insunating then there is bound to be a big problem.

Honestly, I dont even see the reason or need for such in the South as rarely you find farmers and herdsmen crisis The only reason I might support is to ban open grazing completely Marauding herdsmen has made it difficult to identify criminals as you did be approaching thinking they are herdsmen till the devil is unleashed

Anything to confine them is welcomed, so anybody seen along a deserted express-way can be regarded as a criminal and same time, any found in farm lands can be seen as a criminal Get them off the roads and street Anything that will stop open grazing and fair to all I welcome

Elemosho478:
The Federal Government has approved the planned RUGA settlements across the country in spite of criticisms it garnered.


The RUGA settlement scheme will take off its pilot phase in Taraba, Adamawa, Plateau, Kaduna, Sokoto, Nasarawa, Kogi, Katsina, Kebbi, Zamfara and Niger states.

According to a source at the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, everything is set for the implementation of the scheme.

“The pilot states for its implementation are Sokoto, Adamawa, Nasarawa, Kaduna, Kogi, Taraba, Katsina, Plateau, Kebbi, Zamfara and Niger,” the source told Punch.


“They are actually 11 in number and the governors of these states are coming to the ministry to learn how the Ruga settlements will be implemented,” a senior official at the FMARD, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said.


It added that “These are the states that have fully shown their interest. But unfortunately, people are talking about this as if the Federal Government is planning to grab land in the states.


“That’s not true. The plan is mainly for these states that are ready and the Federal Government had a discussion with the governors concerned.

“Some of the governors came here and they promised to provide land because they have seen the benefits they will derive from the initiative. It is not that the Federal Government wants to invade the states, no!”

On whether the government will go ahead with the move despite public outcry, the source asked, “Why not? Of course, the government will go ahead with the programme, particularly in states that are willing to have it. For states that are not interested, no problem.”

Thats abstract! Its impossible

Are you telling me in 2019, You could lease out your land for 50 years and lose possession of it when its legally binding and documented? Now imagine when a state government is doing that.

You know, atimes in strategies, you could use terms and conditions to even reject something. And when such T&C are agreed upon, the whole chips are in your court. The world has grown past that age.

I can put you on a 2 year renewable lease which must be approved by Assembly before renewal. I can keep mentioning on and on.

Anything is welcomed for peace to reign if its fair and logical. Dont let us reason like we in 1964.

Well Ebonyians can do their things without anyone hearing it.So many things are swept under the carpet.

The other day one community clashes with herdsmen and the result were unknown to even people living in Abakaliki the state capital.

That's how we roll.

This people are the same people that take cattles into people farmland were the farmers have toiled under rain and under sunshine for God knows how long to grow their crops , and Fulani's would take their cattles to feed on people's crops, if you dare question them they would go on rampage and kill you.....does that behavior seem normal to you?? Everything must go their way or else they would get violent!!! They raped and killed scores of people in my village ,am not supposed to pray such befalls you but it seems it has to befall on you so you can have the common sense to see the point people going against this scheme is trying to make

I'm for Buhari but this Ruga settlement is unacceptable.

I mean, the rumors of islamization can be true after all. This is how they gradually penetrate territories and strike from within when Jihad comes.

We have decayed to a fault that we from different ethnic background can no longer live together in harmony for long. The situation is beyond redemption already.

North has the largest land mass, they should stick to their territory
.
I bet you didn't bother to even read the article otherwise you wouldn't have made that statement; apparently you just simply couldn't wait to expose your bigotry.

For the benefit of those who similarly didn't read the article, pls note that the RUGA scheme is completely voluntary; interested state government would have to apply and indicate interest.

So far the pilot programme is confined to 11 northern states (who must have already indicated their interest); the FG is not planning to impose the RUGA scheme on southern states or any other state opposed to to it - though I am confident, many who are currently rejecting it now would later be begging to be included when they eventually realise the accrual benefits of the scheme.

You are a blatant illiterate or your education is a waste. The US, UK and all civilized countries have cattle ranches to boost their agricultural GDP. The FG sought the approval of any governor interested to show up and they did and you are here shouting islamization. What's the essence of your education please? All land belongs to state governments and they have decided to give their consent.... your statemperament governors decline consent and you are crying over other state..... I wonder what most of today's useless your help turning yourself into.
May God heal you all
Hahahahahaha.... See a kettle calling a pot black...

So you can't differentiate between a ranch and Herdsmen settlement..

Don't compare what this clueless government is doing to what is obtainable in the developed western world...
