The Abia State governor, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu has bared his mind towards the controversial National Grazing Reserves Bill which is currently undergoing debate at the Nigerian National Assembly.

Speaking on Friday, May 6, 2016, the governor said that any plan to create a grazing reserves for the Fulani herdsmen will be frustrated in the entire South East because there is not sufficient land space in the zone for such projects.

Ikpeazu stated this, when he appeared on the Magic 102.9FM Aba flagship programme “People and Politics”. He stressed that there is enough land space in Northern Nigeria for grazing reserves and they should be located in the North.

“We don’t need grazing reserves in the South-East, because we don’t have land space for it. There are enough land in the north, so let have grazing reserves there,” Ikpeazu said.

Fulani militia, the armed wing of the herdsmen, have been the hot topic for the past two weeks after carrying out acts of genocide against Nimbo community in Enugu State last week. Communities in the South East, South South, and South West have ordered Fulani herdsmen to leave their territories.

Meanwhile, the Northern senators in the Nigerian senate threatened a break up of the Nigeria if the terrorist Fulani herdsmen are evicted from the Southern states.
