Buhari Government Approves Over N2billion For Purchase Of Cows To Boost Animal Production

The President Muhammadu Buhari's administration has approved over N2billion for the purchase of cattle to boost animal production in Taraba State.

This was made known by the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, Sadiya Farouq, while addressing journalists at the end of the Federal Executive Council meeting presided over by Buhari on Wednesday.

The News Agency of Nigeria quoted her as saying: “The Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development submitted two memos.

“One was for the revised estimated total cost for the supply of cattle for Taraba State under the Emergency Agricultural Intervention Programme for states that were affected by conflict and insecurity.

“The approval we got was in the tune of N2billion, some millions thereabout,” she said while explaining that the fund was meant for states ravaged by insecurity.

She also noted that the council had approved the national action plan on human trafficking, 2022-2026.

On his part, the Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, revealed that N56.3billion was approved for the completion of the Abaji-Koton Karfe section of the Abuja-Lokoja highway.

“It was awarded for N56.175billion. Hopefully, this should facilitate the completion of that critical highway, which started in 2006,” he said.

He also revealed that the council approved over N250million revised cost for the completion of Aboto Alfa road, linking Kwara and Oyo states.

Hope it's not only Fulani Herdsmen that would benefit from it? Just thinking out loud.

I think they should also come up with an intervention fund to "boost crop production" especially for farmers whose farms have been destroyed by herdsmen and their cattles in the middle belt and southern Nigeria.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

2006, the locust years when the fantastically corrupt PDP was in power. Thank God APC government is finishing those abandoned projects littering the federation.

FG should please intervene in the abandoned Old Federal Secretariat complex in Ikoyi, Lagos as well. That whole complex breaks my heart seeing it in that abandoned state for over a decade now.
Please FG and LASG should resolve the issue.

On the cows, N2 billion is just enough to procure less than or just around 10,000 cows.

Though this is good initiative o and can help the ravaged folks get back and start their economic life again but sincerely, it is paltry and I expect Taraba state Government to contribute another N2 billion to get more cows for those victims of the insecurity by terrorist bandits, communal strife, cattle rustlers etc.

N2 billion is like chicken change to these Governors, in fact, not more than what any of the Oil rich Niger Delta state Governors donates to the PDP wink

Who rears the cow? Is it government via the minister of Humanitarian services or government will pay people to rear it?

When will approval be given for the replacement of land and crops by those who lost them to insecurities too?

If it is to approve this amount na sharp sharp him go approve am but to sign the Amended Electoral Bill be problem for am.

There goes the senseless and useless government again. Cattle matter in a nation currently on economic nosedive, humongous debt burden and insecurity mainly from his marauding and killer cattle-rearing fulanis kiths and kin. So much corruption and deaths in the name of national development in a forced but failed nationhood.
