When i made my opinion known about Fayose merely grandstanding, some mumus who are incapable of forming independent opinions almost died in my mentions....

Heck, does he have state police to enforce anything?

bejeiodus:
There is no difference whatsoever. But it is better to allow state governors enact their own laws than bullying them into giving up their lands.

Goats?what happens to all goat owners nd sheep owners in Ekiti?am sure there are still goats even in Ado EkitI d state capitaL!6 months jail 4 all of them!or is d law meant 4 only Fulanis?

Nasiruddeen:
In my opinion, Fayose was wrong to enact such laws in the first place. The fulanis have the right to live and work in ekiti just like every other Nigerian. Why ban their business of cattle rearing when they have no other means? Why criminalize the whole fulanis as if all fulanis are killers? There are bad eggs amongst every tribe, why do we make it look like violence is exclusive to northerners only and Fulani in particular.

The people we should frown at are cattle rustlers who steals cattle from fulanis and use them as disguise for their evil deeds. The fulanis are peaceful people who go about their business in peace and we all know they control their herds of cattle with mere sticks. Even though we call them primitive, how many non Fulani can rear cattle for national consumption like the fulanis? Without them how do we see beef to consume?

The rustlers are armed terrorist escaping from the north east to the south. What fayose should have done is to forbid any herdsmen from moving around with weapons, not banning cattle rearing completely. If all states cooperated with the FG on creation of grazing reserves throughout the country, there will not be a single cattle left on the streets looking for grass.

Instead we chastised president Buhari's brilliant policy in the name of Islamization. The ripple effects are the incessant attacks by the rustlers.

For me, the grazing bill remains the best and safest option for the sake of peace. Not unnecessary bans.

Fayose is the most controversial governor I've ever seen. Why sign the grazing bill into law in the first place when he knew he would end up flip-flopping? Coward!

rayblast:
I thought d dan iska (Fayose) said no grazing for Ekiti State, Kolomental governor!!!!!!

DropShot:

Why tagging the Bill "Anti-grazing bill" when you have not mapped out the specific areas for grazing?

Confused?

Fayose is a street clown.

DropShot:
I thought the A$$hole was criminalizing grazing in Ekiti!

Where are his fellow jesters on Nairaland who masturbated on that jamboree of signing the bill into law?

With Fayose as a governor, no one needs a comedian again in that state!

seunmsg:


Why is he using both ranching and open grazing interchangeably? The law is supposed to be clear and without ambiguity considering the noise he made before and after signing it.

What is the difference between the provision that “The Governor shall by an order designate land in each of 16 local government areas in the state in respect of which cattle or ruminants may be permitted to graze” and the proposal by the federal government to designate some areas all over the country as grazing reserves? Nigerians, mostly from the southern part opposed the presidents proposal vehemently, somehow, Fayose has given legal backing to the presidents proposal and nobody is complaining.

Zombies should read well and concentrate on the word "MAY". It is conditional, ONLY if the fulani herdsmen behave themselves.

Don't tell me you are the owner of nairaland because it will be a big disgrace to our educational system. The federal government proposed bill was more or less like a compulsory accusation acquisition without royalty to the state government. With this bill or law, the Ekiti State government has had succeeded in killing two birds with one stone, wit: Increase in IGR and security of lives and properties.

kenny987:


He never criminalised grazing in the state. You failed to comprehend the obvious n rather chose to input or believe whatever u wanted. This provision to map out specific areas was part of the bill that was signed into law, it isn't a sudden afterthought.

Basically, d point is no person can ban anyone from engaging in lawful business but even lawful businesss must be regulated to ensure that the overriding duty of a government to protect life n property is achieved. The state has a government and that government owes its people d responsibility to do all within its power to ensure their protection n d preservation of their heritage. No group of persons n criminals are allowed to attack, kidnap n kill at will because of grazing n cattle, no!
