Personally, I don't think the govt did a good thing to ban open grazing, this isn't any different from Xenophobia,
We condemned it when SA did it to us, we also condemned it when Ghana did it to us, why are we now doing it to ourselves.

Most of the Fulani herdsmen are doing legitimate business rearing cattle, yes some bad elements have hijacked the business to carry out their attacks but that doesn't mean we should ban the business, there are people that always hijacked protests, but should we also ban protests? People have hijacked affiliate marketing, should we also ban it, did western countries ban Nigerian and Indian businesses even though these two countries are always into fraud?

Its definitely the govt fault not to provide a situable environment for good business to thrive, we shouldn't support them if they try to ban the few business people are doing, banning business wont stop insecurity, this is just trying to force the ones doing the legitimate business to reason fraud, this is Nigeria, everyone should be allowed to do legitimate business

They can ban beer n pork but we can't ban open grazing ?

North is 3 times bigger than south ...why not graze in the north

Open grazing is no longer practiced in most parts of the world because it comes in conflict with the interest of farmers and their means of livelihood. And in my own opinion, the governors of the South did well in outlawing open grazing because criminals have now used that as a means to causes untold mayhem in the country.

there are farms and land that ban grazing, but for a whole region to ban grazing, omo ehn, I just felt they are not fair to the ones doing legitimate business

You fail to understand that cattle rearing is a private business that requires accountability on the part of the owner(s). Right now, open grazing is not ideal in Nigeria because of the serious security threat it poses to the country's stability. Or are you willing to risk the stability of the country for the sake of allowing herders and farmers continue their clashes?

north holds 70% of the total landmass of Nigeria it's it's illogical for them to be coming to south to destroy farm lands in the name of land grazing.
Cattle rearing is a private business and it should be treated as such.
Open grazing cause desertification and conflict s. Open grazing had 2% advantage and 98% disadvantage

If it is allowed, can it be put under control?? Can the negative effects of it that has happened over the years before be curtailed?

let the herders buy their own land, grow grass on it and have their animals graze there without disturbing others.

And also, let everyone check my signature please. patronize us for your data.
lol, I do get it now, somehow I just felt we are not being kind to the herders, though I'm having a double mindset, thanks for ur input

At this stage in time, the ban needs to be upheld and enforced. Unless government plans to provide free land for all farmers nationwide (livestock and crop) to balance the equation.

Given what obtains for others, these herdsmen should purchase or lease desired land and carry out their activities there.

Additionally, there's no evidence that these folks pay taxes or dues hence, all forms of protection and preferences that they enjoy is really over the top and biased.
