Read this my brother, you'll see polygamy was God's permissive will to the old testament people, it was never his perfect will for man. As far as God was concern it was a total confusion, reason no single true prophet of God divorced or practice it all through the old testament, only those at the lower rung of spiritual ladder were permitted due to their hardness of heart; and with strong condition attached. More-also majority of old testament people jew or no jew were at the kindergarten level of spiritual understanding, but under the new testament we enjoy fullness of grace and relationship with God.

Mark 10: 1-12
And he arose from thence, and cometh into the coasts of Judaea by the farther side of Jordan: and the people resort unto him again; and, as he was wont, he taught them again.
2And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting him.
3And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?
4And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away.
5And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.
6But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.
7For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife;
8And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.
9What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
10And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter.
11And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.
12And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.

God's authority supersede any religious fallacy and man-made laws. Polygamy or any form of absurd marital relationship or sexual orientation is forbidden by God.

Princedapace:
oga, polygamy is not a crime. He maybe a muslim, he maybe a traditionalist. When will u christains even begin to stop juging everyone based on ur new testament standard? Even jews dont see crime in polygamy. It is strictly for christains in new testament.

Most of una role models in the bible had more than one woman and many side chicks. He has done no crime having a side chick

Stop all this praise singing it is not any thinking of Asiwaju. The road itself is being tolled that up till now the accountability of the toll is in question. I am not impressed with this because Fashola designed the road up to Epe so this one is still window dressing to avoid the inevitable which is giving full account of the tolls collected on that road.

FG to resuscitate 415 grazing reserves - BusinessDay
Apr 16, 2014

To end the constant clashes between herdsmen and farmers, create massive jobs and harvest other economic benefits, the Federal Government plans to resuscitate the 415 grazing reserves in the country.

Akinwunmi Adesina, minister of agriculture and rural development who made this known at the ministry in Abuja recently, said only 141 of the available 415 grazing reserves around the country were mapped and gazetted. Even then, he expressed doubt that any of the mapped and gazetted reserves was being effectively managed to realise the objective for creating them.

Adesina therefore said it was to address these inadequacies with a view to optimising them that President Goodluck Jonathan directed the establishment of a technical committee with the active commitment and involvement of all stakeholders, including relevant ministries, departments and agencies (MDAs) as well as states and local governments, with a mandate to develop maps and do an inventory of existing facilities for their effective utilisation.

According to him, the committee is to ascertain whether the facilities, which included those needed to facilitate livestock fattening such as water, fodder as well as veterinary and extension services existed and were adequate.

Adesina also pointed out that apart from addressing national security issues, resuscitating the grazing reserves had tremendous economic benefits, saying, “… the global Halal certified beef industry was worth $623 billion in 2011, and has leap-frog to $2.3 trillion in 2013. Argentina, Brazil, Spain and Australia are the major countries supplying Halal beef to markets located mostly in the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia where about 5 million visitors go every year for religious and other purposes. The Halal beef market is more of business than faith. The Federal Government made a case for Nigeria to be admitted to the world Halal Beef Commission and enrolled as a supplier, during the meeting of agriculture ministers at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland earlier this year, given the large number of cattle in Nigeria.”

The minister therefore canvassed for “raising and fattening cattle and other livestock at serviced grazing locations rather than roaming them from place to place in search of grass, thereby they become lean and their meat is tough when slaughtered.”

He added: “Livestock grow much faster and fatter if raised in sedentary conditions, and it makes more economic sense to transport processed meat and meat products to local and foreign markets in hygienic conditions, and according to acceptable standards than transporting live cattle.” He noted that this would eliminate much of the clashes between herders and farmers that we see today and national security would improve.

An inter-ministerial technical committee tasked with working out modalities for mapping and resuscitating the 415 existing grazing reserves and stock routes spread across the country has thereby been inaugurated. This includes ministers of environment, works, interior, water resources, science and technology as well as national planning with commissioners of agriculture of all 19 states of North-Central, North-East and North-West geo-political zones as well as some adjoining states.

Other bodies represented on the technical committee are the Office of the National Security Adviser to the President, Office of the Surveyor General of the Federation, National Orientation Agency and the International Livestock Research Institute. It has two weeks from Friday, April 11, this year to submit its report to the inter-ministerial committee.

GEJ made Bubu looked like a Messiah then, however kudos to Prof. and other supporters of Buhari that are able to challenge and criticize him when things are going bad unlike some asslîckers like Ngige that keeps making Buhari think all is well with Nigerians.

Fellow Nigerians, following President Buhari's decision to reclaim all officially gazetted grazing reserves/routes, I decided to conduct my own findings as to where exactly these gazzeted cattle routes are located. What I found was rather interesting and I will present it here for the purpose of enlightening the public.

My research focused only on the gazzeted cattle routes as that was what PMB said he would reclaim.

Do you know that in the entire south, it is only Oyo state that has 2 gazzeted cattle routes/reserves? The rest don't have. See below the breakdown of the officially gazzeted cattle routes in Nigeria;

There are 140 gazetted grazing reserves (Adamawa—31; Bauchi—27; Borno—15; Gombe—4; Jigawa—2; Kaduna—2; Kebbi—1; Kogi—1; Kwara—1; Nasarawa— 7; Niger— 2; Plateau— 1; Sokoto— 8; Taraba—9; Yobe— 17; Zamafara— 6, FCT— 4 and Oyo— 2.

I am not very sure PMB is aware of this distribution. He may be aware that there are gazzeted grazing reserves, but if he now discovers that what is officially gazzeted does not even include almost the entire south, I am not sure he will still pursue the agenda of reclaiming these reserves.

I also found out that as far back as the time these reserves were created, the committee recommended the adoption of a more sedentary method of cattle rearing or ranching. In a paper written by S.A. Ingawa, C. Tarawali and R. von Kaufmann, ILCA Subhumid

the authors listed some of the problems with open grazing of cattle and the need to implement a solution that is both beneficial to the pastoralists and the farmers.

The research is an eye opener and also a deep revelation as to how government can indeed resolve any problem if they intend to, with honesty and fairness.

As for the gazzeted grazing reserves in question, there are only 140 which I have listed. Although some were never officially gazetted, I have excluded them from this post because the focus is on the officially gazetted ones.
