Very good. “There is no such proposal or bill on the creation of grazing reserves either in the Senate or House of Representatives. Nobody is considering it; not even at the executive level. I do not think they are considering it but we will not support it even if it has been considered,” Chief Obafemi Awolowo said: ‘Tap and pipe water from the Atlantic Ocean to irrigate the whole of Northern Nigeria like other deserts of the world and you will feed the entire world from here’. There should be no driving of herds all over the nation as the excuse to mass murder Nigerians in the South. / “Sambisia forest which is approximately 60,000 Km2 and has more than 6million hectares of land can be used as a national ranch where all breeders from different parts of the country can breed their cattle. This will help to develop the area and derive Boko Haram their haven. Read more at: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/04/can-opposes-grazing-reserve-bill/ 61 Likes 4 Shares |

They better not do. They should rather pass a law that will make the lawmaker that initiated that crazy and terrorist bill to be given 1000 strokes of cane and be ejected from NASS 15 Likes 1 Share |

A regional approach to such issue is the way to go. How can any sane mind think it is possible to create a grazing reserve in the South east when the entire 5 states that makes up the region is not even up to 40% of the size of Niger State which is just one state in the North! If the North can grow crops they sell to the South, they should grow fodder for their cattle, it is not as if the meat is given out for free. I read an article where someone talked about desertification as the reason why they prefer heading south! Despite the fact that more than half of Israel's land is desert, who can compete with them when it comes to practising agriculture in difficult terrains? The cattle owners should swallow their pride, ignoring religion and go and learn from the Israelis on how to convert deserts to food baskets! More than 40 percent of the Israel’s vegetables and field crops are grown in their Negev desert. Education is important, they should seek it and stop making excuses! 38 Likes 4 Shares |

Although we are from different worlds politically with the deputy senate president. But I agree with him on this one. The fulani's are not the only ethnic group in Nigeria and should not be given prefrential treatment. Can farmers in let's say Anambra or Ogun be given lands in kano by the federal government to cultivate their crops without risking another civil war? Even if they is going to be grazing reserves let it be in the north. Enough of this rubbish talks about marginalisation by fulani's freedom of mmovement does not say the country belongs to fulani's alone. We are all NIgerians. 24 Likes |

Good move The constantly tell us that Sokoto, Borno, Kano etc are bigger than all the South East States, I gree.... So I think there should be more space for whatever Ranch, grass or Bush for Cows in the North.... Cows must not be roaming about infront of my Office, before I can eat beef, I also eat Titus sardines nd fish , I don't see fishes disturbing my Environment.... Plant grass in Sambisa nd feed ur cows there 26 Likes 3 Shares |
