Everybody knows the problems except some daft people on Nairaland. Nigeria (as usual) is not listed among the countries with substantial cattle production. But the Fulani's are trying despite all the odds to at least supply the country's needs in this respect. Most countries of the world would normally try to improve on this by providing the legal framework for grazing reserves. This is not about having money to buy foreign meat as you(eket bear) implied above. The U.S. is one of the largest cattle producing countries in the world , it doesn't mean they have no money to buy meat.Diverse economy is what is needed by every country in this wolrd. If the government is serious they would not allow the fulanis to just be driving thier cattle any how with no legal framework and with no grazing reserves. These (grazing reserves)exist in US and other smaller but serious countries and meat and dairy production for local consumption and even export cannot be beyond Nigeria if we had any serious leadership. Peak Milk from Holland is what every home uses on a daily basis in Nigeria but ekt bear would see nothing wrong with that because him and other fulani bashers have the money. its such a pity and a shame!
More than a thousand Fulani cattle rearers have been killed across the country in the last few months (according to Miyetti Allah cattle rearers leaders), but who will report that? Some ignorant fools are even suggesting that the cattle fulani are not Nigerians.
Once there is no justice peace will continue to elude us no matter how much venom ofdemonization and misinformation is churned out against the fulanis or any other group.

I like the northerners very much. They always have a standby plan. It is very out of place and defies any logic that Nigerian army had to escort 3000 to 4000 Fulani herdsmen southwards instead of northeastern or northwestern direction of Nigeria. Please Imoke do not waste anytime to send these disguised Boko Haram guerrilla fighters back to Sokoto, Kano or Born states. This is another phase of deeping Quaran into Atlantic without firing a shot.

Fulanis in Cross River?

That's too close to Igbo territory for our comfort.

Why not ship them to Sokoto?

We don't want Fulanis close to Igbo territory.

today they're refugees,tomorrow they'll claim rights to graze land,next tomorrow they'll start fighting with farmers,then they'll start fighting the host community,then they'll claim the land and provide historical facts to back their claim and finally the whole state goes up in flames. that is their modus operandi!

Someone here thinks nduchuks is Igbo? Pls do not be deceived with ids,names and monikers on nairaland.nduchuks is not Igbo,he is from core muslim north, nduchuks is another name for alj harem.nduchuks=alj harem

nagoma: So much ignorance And hatred here. I don't know where to start. Without the Fulani cows you will be eating your children . You bloody cannibals. You have consumed all the monkeys and grass cutters , you have turned on the donkeys. Once the Fulnis stop rearing cattle you will go back to your cannibal practices because you cannot live without meat and you cannot rear even goats.

This is the dumbest comment I have ever seen on nairaland. Completely disconnected from the topic. pple dull shall

alj harem: Too much hate on this thread. Now I don't blame those who are uneasy with the development. Let me remain you all it Fulani herdmen have not only clashed with southerners and middle belters but Hausa farmers in Kebbi as well.

The Obudu cattle ranch provides a safe place for Cattle rearers since there are no farmers there, I presume

My southern brothers lets give peace a chance

I hail Cross river government for this

You've just explained the reasons why they are seen as potential problems. I think the Fulanis should strive to be less aggressive in their approach to petty issue as grazing to a grave issue as religion.

Interesting. Thanks for the info. It expalins much.

The fall of Biafra started from Cross River State so will the takeover of the South by the Hausa/Fulani start from Cross River State.

Do you read comments to comprehend them at all? Nobody says you are Ndu-chucks either. We are referring to the person using the handle "NDU-CHUCKS" not you alj harem. Why digressing and putting upon yourself what has not been said about you?

Sugardiva:

Sugar, please do not allow narrow minded and insecure kids turn you into a person who cannot use her brain. So far, our conversations have been cordial and race or tribe has not been a factor. I'd prefer you as a detribalized babe with the kind of intelligences you've displayed so far, to a bigot.

Back to your question:

Do u hv any idea how big the Obanliku lGA is? Do u knw if the land, resources and such are even enough for its indigenous inhabitants talk less of to add 4000 strangers over night? If u live in a one room and i send over to u 30 relatives to live with u, will u be able to cope? I maintain my position IMOKE SEND THEM AWAY NOW!

I trust Imoke's judgement. If he thought that Obanliku IGA was not big enough to provide temporary refuge for these people, he would have said so. If you want to say that Imoke is senseless, unreasonable, and insensitive, please say so and provide your real reason for saying so. Left with me, as far as Imoke is concerned, Oru ya nile mara mma.

BTW, Alh Harem is a kind individual and Ndu_Chucks is not him.

Obiagu1: The fall of Biafra started from Cross River State so will the takeover of the South by the Hausa/Fulani start from Cross River State.

pls dont be too pessimistic,this is 2012 not 1966.benue,taraba,crossrivers govts should find a way of settling those fulanis as far away as possible in jigawa,katsina.its good to see these troublesome fulanis being chased away from southern kaduna,jos,benue,taraba.they should never be allowed any space in the SS or SE.

Who told them Cross River is a home for Refuges? Somalia would have been a preferred destination.

ndu_chucks: Some of you people are heartless, wicked, and outright dumb. Are these Fulanis not Nigerians who have an inalienable right to live in any part of Nigeria?

Nigeria has security issue and if we do not treat that cross river is I for it. Their is no Nigeria but common interest which is oil. They should try North. Muslims are bad news for now.

Why aren't there stronger anti-grazing laws as this is becoming a security issue? I also suggest this for the time being in Cross Rivers. If the soldiers are involved then it behooves them to keep watch for the Cross Riverians.

Not trying to be accusing or anything but some preventative measures should be taken before any decisive action is made.

Meeen, this is just not my day, babes are throwing jabs at me, left and right. Dear Adaugo, how can you say over 1 billion people (Muslims) are bad news, simply because some people are working to avoid humanitarian disaster?

This is hilarious!

I assume that this dumb comment is more of a joke.

You better stop lying and ask those who live there or have been there to tell you before you start this your sly Northern Agenda Propaganda here again.

I come from that region and the people from the ranch area do have farms up there.Most of the People derive their source of living from honey, cash crop and game(bushmeat)all from up there.

Limaoscar is the liar , lying through his teeth. He has not been anywhere near the north. The other gentleman tells the truth.

Who is this Ashewo named cold feet? You can see the gutter up-bringing in her language and she said nothing to counteract what I said. You are are slut and your kind of culture can only support bacteria. Oloshi buruku ignorant fool. I came from your mama hole.

Exactly, your name reminds me of the great leader- Tor Tiv Alfred Torkula. I'm impressed at the level of consciousness of my fellow southerners. I have warned that they are scheming on how to come down south by passing through the weakest links. Of course the army ALWAYS backs them. They have been made to believe that nigeria belongs to them. Send them back to the core north asap.
BTW, I'm happy the middlebelt warriors are now waking up. Their forefathers were NEVER conquered and this they must leave up to. Take note; it remains Nassarawa state. The cloud is gathering there. When the time comes, they(eggon, wamba, akwanga, alago etc. ppl) will surely cross it albeit perniciously. Shame on the elite class of the middlebelt who keep silent while their ppl are being wiped out.

allow dem n spread otapiapia on their grazing land. den watch. nobody says u no fit live any part of naija, must official bh boys escort u to take over my village? even fg dey give notice n compensation.

@ Torkaka

You can see how extremely ignorant you are. The Fulani cattle rearers never claim any land , they are perhaps the only group in Nigeria that " owning land " is strange to them. They graze their cattle and move on. They don't see any reason they should lay claim to land. if you can show me any Fulani herdsman who owns land you will be better than Mungo Park ( who discovered your village).
