I have this sinking feeling that something sinister is at play here. I don't trust these people. The true goal of this acquiescence is yet to unveil itself..

Openly declaring it obsolete, isn't the solution to the many problems it poses.

What actions have they taken to back up their "obsolete" declaration?

Put legislative backing to the declaration, sensitise them, and create ranch villages/estates/clusters/zones/ for them in the North just as we have industrial clusters.

That will be better.
While waiting for legislation,amotekun and ESN should continue to barrage them until they have sense cos that's the only language they understand, or else many people will wakeup dead

At last the real owners of the cows are coming to terms with reality.


If not for the sheer erroneous belief that they own Nigeria, this should have been their stand all this while.

They have now realized that khaki no be leather.

Cattle rearing is a private business for crying out loud. They (herders) should not use their blues to spoil farmers' reggae.


The Northern Governors should take a step further by bringing sanity to the cattle business once and for all.


Peace is all we need!
Thank you bro

MAD idiots. There will be no Ranch in the South. Put your Ranches in your Sahara desert on your ancestral land. No Ranch will be allowed in Yoruba or Igbo or Niger Delta land.

There is strength in UNITY. Look at what the temporary UNITY among Southerners is achieving within few weeks. Let’s just maintain this temporary UNITY for a little more and we will jointly flush out the blood sucking desert warriors from Southern Nigeria forever.

Sometimes I wonder the benefit of Dangote(an hausa man) being the richest man in africa yet his people are suffering more than other regions.

Can't he voluntarily build ranches across all the northern states? What will it cost him?? I'm beginning to suspect he is a very stingy man.
Cattle business na dangote business?
You say dangote na stingy man.....how

According to this herdsman in Ebonyi State, he claims that the host community has been attacking the fulani settlers and feel the quietness of the fulani is a sign of weakness.

Though there have been calls for a retaliation. The fulani herdsman says they intend to wait till the news of what they have been going through in the hands of the Ebonyi villagers go round Nigeria before they take a decision on what to do.

He goes further to warn the villagers that those who have witnessed a fulani fight in the past pray not to witness such again because of the brutality of such fights.

According to him, not even America or the Nigerian government to save them from the wrath of the avenging militia.

Continue watching to learn more..........

Hypocrites
Have never seen people who are dedicated to causing pain and suffering like these northern hypocrites Govnors.
You will think they are serious about this until you discover that they are after Money from Buhari for them to build ranches for Fulani which they would even loot while open grazing continues
just my thought. Let the south continue heating it up if not the desert terrorists ain't backing off.

Absolutely nothing concrete, just word of mouth - Declarations and vows, tells you everything you need to know about these governors.
Put legislative backing to the declaration, sensitise them, and create ranch villages/estates/clusters/zones/ for them in the North just as we have industrial clusters.
They actually know the best way to solve this issue but, considering the antecedent of this governors, they don't seem to care much about these brewing issue. They are only after their selfish interest.



That will be better.

Geographically, The middle belt is in southern Nigeria and the middle belt have been dissociating themselves from hausa and fulanis.
Tiv, Kwarans, Tarabans, Igala, Idoma, etc have been telling everyone that cares to listen that they are nor hausa.

Re: Northern Governors Declare Open Grazing Outdated by wink2015(m): 8:06am On Feb 10, 2021
Governors in the North on Tuesday described open grazing by herdsmen as obsolete. It should end, they declared.


This decision was the outcome of, a meeting of Northern Nigeria Governors Forum, held virtually.

The decision is in line with the position of Kano State Governor Abdullahi Ganduje, who said herders should embrace ranching and stop herding their cows from the North to the South is search of pasture.

The Senate has warned that should the farmers-herders conflict be allowed to fester, it could lead to ethno-religious war and famine.

The North’s governors, according to the meeting communiqué issued by its chairman, Plateau State Governor Simon Lalong, have decided to sensitise herdsmen on the need to adopt ranching and other acceptable modern methods.

They said the current system of herding conducted mainly through open grazing is no longer sustainable in view of growing urbanication and population of the country.

“Consequently, the Forum resolved to aggressively sensitise herdsmen”.

They appealed to the Federal Government to support States with grants to directly undertake pilot projects of modern livestock production that will serve as springboard and evidence for breaking resistance to the full implementation of new methods of livestock production.

They also resolved to engage elders and youths in a robust discussion with a view to dousing the tensed security environment in the north.

A four-man Committee to be headed by Lalong was raised to work out the plan to educate herders.

The forum called for restraint from leaders, including those in the South, where passion is high. They also called on citizens of the North to continue to live in peace with all Nigerians, irrespective of their origin and background.

They urged political leaders to differentiate between criminality and social groups and treat criminals as criminals.

“The Forum condemns every form of criminality whether from herders, hunters, or farmers occupying forest reserves illegally”, they added and noted with concern the tension generated by the eviction order issued to herdsmen in some parts of the country.

The North’s governors described the eviction order as heating up the already fragile security atmosphere with threats of reprisals which they are working assiduously to contain.

The meeting said there was the urgent need for the Nigerian Governors Forum to meet and discuss the issue holistically with a view to resolving all areas of misunderstanding and the conflicts arising from these threats and suspicion for the sake of national unity

This is an encouraging news from the northern governors.

The ending of opening grazing will reduce the level of insecurity in the land.

Farmers will have their peace to grow their crops.
