Herdsmen Withdrawal From Southwest Will Cause Food Shortage And Unemployment by Biodun556(op): 4:43pm On Jul 17, 2019
Lagos state alone consumes 600,000 cows perday.

The Fulanis sells cow while Yorubas are the butchers and sellers of beef. There are hundreds of thousands of butchers and beefs sellers spread across major and local markets in Lagos and other parts of the region.

The major source of protain in Nigeria, especially in the South West are beef and milk which Fulanis are the major suppliers.

People castigates Fulanis by calling them different names but send their wives to market to buy beef, they go to buka and order assaulted meat but dont care where these are coming from.

If the Fulanis take their leave, the price of food will rice to more than hundred percent. There will be severe malnutrition and loss of job among butchers and beef sellers.

We must realise the economic importance of the Fulanis and other tribes in Nigeria. Larger percent of the food will consume in Nigeria especially in the South West comes from the North. Beans, rice, spices and other grains are supplied by the Northerners; the Hausas to be precise while the Fulanis supply the beef; our major source of protain.

We must learn how to separate criminals from genuine business men. We must not let politicians create fear and false alarm which does not go beyond their imagination and perception.

Isn't it funny that some people refer to cattle as a mere animal? Yet we consume millions of tonnes of milk and beef daily.

No country in the World take cattle business for granted because of its nutritional and economic value. If RUGA settlement is rejected, our governors should take up the challenge by establishing the likes in the states to stop importation of milk , create employment and tackle food shortages.

It's a shame that we are importing palm oil into the country, if Fulani Herdmen issue is not well addressed, we will start importing beef also.

Importation of palm oil shows how lazy we are in agriculture in the South. The Northerners are the one showing keen interest in farming and we must not toil with their potentials and stop generalising.

meat is for the living not the dead,we cannot sacrifice our life on the altar of cow meat,the reason you are writing this nonsense is because,their killing has not gotten to you or any member of your family,you will hate cow meat from the fulani all the days of your life

Is it not somebody that is alive that will eat and work? Let security of life and property be guaranteed first then we can talk of food and work. People can always find other food to eat and other work to do but they can't find another life to live in this world if they are killed

Lazy analysis!!!.
Although I do not support stigmatizing a particular ethnic group nonetheless I do not support violence. We don't depend on the cows they breed in the south, most cows we eat in the south is being transported from the north daily.
Most/all red oil we use in Nigeria is being produced in Nigeria the story is changing fast for groundnut and vegetable oil

Silly op, let them take their cow out of the south, we can find other means of surviving without fulani beef. We have Bush meat, Yoruba goat meat, snail, chicken, turkey, among others

Very silly talk!

We call on fulani to modernise by ranching but Yoruba is not able to modernise and start producing own beef? Very very silly input from a fulani masquerading as Yoruba.

1. the OP is an impostor. He is a Fulani boy.

2. herdsmen depend on cattle business for living, so they have no choice but to sell
regardless of where they are located.

3. herdsmen have nothing to do with milk consumed in Southwest or any other states in Nigeria.
Anybody involved with cattle business already knows this. There are beef and there are cattle bred for
milk. Herdsmen do not supply milk to anywhere in Nigeria.

4. Nobody buys cows from herdsmen directly roaming in the bush. There are specific cattle markets
where cows are traded and transported with trailers. Most of this market is in the north.

5. Let us assume that the herdsmen choose starvation and refuse to sell their battles. This will be a boost
for the local economy of SW as many business people will venture into the business.

6. The OP lied about the importance of cattle. Most countries in the world especially the developed ones
rely on import to get meats.

Finally, beef is not good for anybody's health in the long run. It has been linked to hypertension, obesity,
diabetes and cancer.

Say NO to RUGA
Say YES to LIFE!
