And the Fulani that have sex without protection and born like rabbits will end up occupying the local government and install an emir like the infamous emir of Kano who will take order from the sokoto caliphate.

SAMBISA FOREST
* 686 square kilometers.
* 6.8 million hectares.
* 68 million plots of 100 feet by 100 feet.
* At 5 cows per plot, it can take 340 million cows.
* 340 million cows is 18 times the current number of cows in Nigeria.

They have not told us what exactly they're looking for. But we know!

Are we still on this?

The Entire Northern states have the landmass to accommodate these cattle colonies or whatever they are called.

This can also prove to be an avenue to generate more IGR for states with low internal revenue.

The entire South has rejected cattle colony!!!!!
sambisa forest can give them a cattle continent ,not just colonies.

Re: 5 Top Benefits Of Cattle Colony by liohan: 9:35pm On Jan 24, 2018
No responsible person would fight against cattle colony at least we are not.
The pertinent question we are asking is that -
Who will be the major beneficiaries?
Would the colony be segmented? Because we all know that while other ethnic groups have integrated themselves into Nigeria, the Fulani people have not. Nigeria currently does not have security, we all know that. Won't they use it as a base for colonising the local people?
That is our major concern.

WHAT IS CATTLE COLONY?

The idea behind the Cattle Colonies is to cater for the needs of cattle herders in terms of availability of resources to take care of their cattle while avoiding unnecessary clashes and tussles over economic resources such as land and water between them and farmers.

Cattle colonies are expected to be large expanses of land procured by the Federal Government, in collaboration with States (already 16 States have indicated interest in this), where water, grass and security would be provided to cattle herders who would in turn pay for rent and other services provided by the Government.


DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CATTLE COLONY AMD RANCHING

1. A Cattle Colony is bigger in size than a Ranch, and caters for more cattle. A cattle colony can cater for as many as 40 ranchers.
2. While a ranch is provided for by the Herders, a Colony is provided for by the Government who collect rent from the herders to use these facilities. The reason for this is that ranching is a Capital intensive venture and cannot be embarked on by rural subsistent low earning herders, if ranching were to be made compulsory, it would be hard for rural herdsmen to comply with it.
3. In Cattle Colonies the Federal Government collaborates with the States to provide these lands (note that lands, by virtue of the Land Use Act are vested in the Governors of the State), water and security, while in ranches the herders have to provide this for themselves.

BENEFITS OF HAVING CATTLE COLONIES


1. Safety of lives and property and a drastic reduction in farmers and herders clashes
2. Cattle produce healthier beef when they are kept in colonies, and also produce more milk
3. Farmers do not have to worry about the safety of their crops and thus more production is ensured for the farmers, which means more economic activity in the agriculture sector
4. Cattle colonies would put a stop to cattle being rustled by thieves and terrorists
5. It would become easier to identify criminals who either masquerade as herdsmen or are herdsmen who commit murderous crimes and destruction.

As nice as this is, I do have my reservations about the whole colony idea.
Who really own these cattle?
What has been the mode of caring for these cattle before recent incidents?
Since, cattle rearing is part of agriculture, what then happens to those who own fisheries, piggeries, poultry etc. Would they also be given their own colonies?
How sustainable is this solution?
Is it a panacea for the recent happenings?

Re: 5 Top Benefits Of Cattle Colony by nextstep(m): 9:39pm On Jan 24, 2018
No problem. There's lots of land in the North, and fewer tsetse flies, so colonies should be setup there. And then, using the working train system (hah hah, yes I know, funny grin ), cows are sent down South for slaughter.

In my opinion, all this nomadic lifestyle must stop... welcome to the 21'st century, where cows are kept on ranches.

Re: 5 Top Benefits Of Cattle Colony by baqina(m): 9:40pm On Jan 24, 2018
For d colony to be effective,why not ban the roaming of cattle.It is insane seeing cattle in hundreds on the street not to even talk of the handlers with guns.

Instead of d colony, why not create an intervention funds for the herders through d CBN or Bank of Agric. for d establishment of ranches.

The govt needs to educate d herders on d dangers on their current practice.Nigeria Immigration Service also needs to know that manning the entry points is part of their cardinal points, they should stop focusing on issuing of passport. Their should be more focus and searchlight beam on the activities of our borders.
Re: 5 Top Benefits Of Cattle Colony by LaClicKLaBenDin(m): 9:40pm On Jan 24, 2018
Anyone who is discerning will know that there's a sinister motive behind this cattle colony issue. The fulanis are against anti grazing laws which they see as being against their normadic nature, but they are in favour of cattle colonies being created across the nation.

Now, let's think about it: anti grazing law isn't against ranching, so why are the fulanis against it? Now, if cattle colonies are created across the country, these herdsmen will be forced to graze their cattle within the confines of these colonies, which in essence curtails their natural normadic way of life. Now the question is: why are they not against cattle colonies, but against ranching? The answer is simple: the Fulanis want to have their communities spread across the whole nation, from where they can carry out a set agenda.

A cattle colony is comprised of many ranches and with amenities and all that, but it still restricts the Fulani herders, so, why are they not against it?

You didn't mention the mass migration of herders to the colony and the eventual installation of their own traditional ruler who will then be designated as a first class chief to whom the existing rulers of the location must now pay tribute.
