The Nigerian government has called for the support of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) in providing lasting solutions to the farmers and herdsmen crisis in the country.

The Minister of Interior, Abdulrahman Dambazau disclosed this after a meeting with the President of the ECOWAS commission, Marcel De Souza at the ECOWAS secretariat Abuja.

This is one of the efforts being employed by federal government in tackling herdsmen crisis and to ensure that justice was meted out on the perpetrators.

Dambazau after the meeting told newsmen that the discussion was bordered on regional security as herder/farmers clashes alongside terrorists attacks became worrisome

He called for a ministerial conference of ECOWAS member states in order to come up with a framework that will address the trans-border crimes, which he said had contributed to the conflict.

Firefire:
I think Ghana is part of ECOWAS

Deathlezz:
What can ECOWAS do? Are the Fulani herdsmen coming from outside Nigeria’s borders?

Never seen a criminally negligent government like this!

What kind of support are they asking from the 16 country ECOWAS union when Nigeria already provides over 60 percent of ECOWAS funding and has 75% of the economy of the region?

Daejoyoung:

Buhari believes most of the Herdsmen are not from Nigeria, so l think he needs Ecowas to review the law on migration across the borders of Ecowas member nations.

Yeligray:
We refuse to be used.. Until then but in my state Cross River State, there is no space/land for the establishment of cattle colony

Deathlezz:
If that’s true—which I doubt still— it’s still a dumb evasive move. He doesn’t need ECOWAS support to secure his borders if the herdsmen are coming from outside Nigeria.

Boko Haram that’s clearly a cross border terrorist group didn’t need ECOWAS support.

I think the government is playing lip service and reacting out of pressure from the public.

What is wrong with you all?

What exactly is it?

Are you aware that Herdsmen have been migrating up and down the path of West Africa for centuries?

Are you aware that as a West African you are guaranteed ease of movement across borders?

Why should a group that makes such criss-cross not be under the purview of an ECOWAS security and diplomatic initiative?

Let us imagine we get a new leader today Donald Duke say, would that change the trans-borders migration of the cattle herders?

Would cattle rustling stop and as a result less carnage?

As long as you continue with this unrelenting attack of government, government policies you all can never see peace .

Quite unfortunate the number of close-minded people this country has.

Goke7:
it's obvious the Govt is confused right now. The fulanis knows their days are being numbered.

Deathlezz:


So what does Buhari want ECOWAS block to do?

Secure his own boarders for him?

Help him build modern ranches for him , when he couldn’t create one himself in his own country?

Send troops into Nigerian soil to combat the gun trotting Fulani imbeciles?

Document these itinerant herdsmen for him?

I wonder why the sudden esclating herdsmen rush for land and grazing since Buhari came in when we there are no other same frequency of clashes in other West African countries.





writing in bold fonts can’t make your dumb comments anymore appealing. There are just too many simplistic gullible mediocres roaming unchained in cyberspace, I tell you.

What rush for land?

Provide the stats to back up your claim or we can accept you are pulling this from your bum as most do on this forum.

I write the way I do and not even you can prevent me from such freedom. You know what you can do with your opinion on that.

Calling an entire tribe of people imbeciles may get you likes and shares but deeply, it tells of your upbringing and your total inability to live within the context of civility.
