Lawmaker representing Gboko/Tarka federal
constituency at the House of Representatives,
John Dyegh has asserted that the current
President, Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal
Government places more emphasis on the
protection of cattle than human lives.

Dyegh, who made the remark during a
stakeholders meeting in Makurdi, the Benue
State capital, on Monday, wondered why the
Federal Government could send out
helicopters to survey states where cows were
being rustled, but did not do same in Benue
where human beings were being killed by
Fulani herdsmen.

He, however, admonished the government to
take decisive steps in curbing incessant
clashes between farmers and herdsmen.

The lawmaker also claimed that some
powerful Nigerians were frustrating the
passage of the bill prohibiting open grazing
which is pending before the National
Assembly.

According to Dyegh, “Recently, government
sent out helicopters to survey states where
cow are being rustled, but they did not do so
in Benue where humans are being killed.

“It clearly shows that we have a government
that places more emphasis on animals more
than humans. Government must tackle this
issue with all seriousness before it gets out of
hand.”
