The pan-Igbo socio-Political organisation, the Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has told the Federal Government to perish its idea of cattle colonies, insisting that Ndigbo will not be dragged into such plan.

The Federal Government of Nigeria had last week, concluded plans to establish, “cattle colonies,” across the country in its quest for a lasting solution to the incessant clashes between farmers and herdsmen.

But Ohaneze has told the President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration that Igbos have their own breed of cows that do not go about causing troubles, adding that creating colonies where animals are not bred, would cause more harm.

For this, the group wants the Nigerian government to forget the idea of cattle colonies in the South-East geopolitical zone.

Speaking with the Punch, the National Publicity Secretary of the group, Uche Achi-Okpaga, said, “We have our local breed of cows in the South-East. They are herded and not allowed to cause damage. If they do, as may be rarely seen, it is at the owners’ risk.

“Why would anybody establish cattle colonies on our land? Is it to begin to create opportunity for further skirmishes? Ndigbo do not buy the idea at all.”

The Last Paragraph Epic Some How

I hope amosu, amode, ajimobi, aregbesola we not give our lands to Fulani again the same way afonja gave kwara to alimi.

I trust fayose that he will not allow Fulani's to fool him.

With this government, nothing is left to chance, denounce it from day 1.

Classic Response.

lols

We have our own breed of cow

Lol

This is not the best way forward.

The problem is no happening because PMB is the president.
If not solve now, it will linger.

These herdsmen are always wining.
To avoid further lose of lives & property,
We need dialogue.

Make dem carry dia wahala go north.

You can dash them your papa land. Igbos don't have land for cattle colony

Cattle colony should be a thing of choice. Any state government that wants to key into is free to do so, expecially those of them in the North and middle belt. Down here in the South, we have already made our position clear; we don't have land for cattle colony.

Yeah. Your breed of cows abound in Nairaland.

omenkaLives:
Yeah. Your breed of cows abound in Nairaland.

Most you always find a way to insult Igbos? Your concern should be your people that may soon go extinct by these same herdsmen you are doing everything to please.

Ohanaeze should have agree to give them since they are mad with one nigeria.

Your comments so far on this issue showed you are Fulani cos no sane Benue indigene will support the killing of his people.

Yeah. I guess the repugnant bastards and demons who call themselves MASSOB are also herdsmen.

Nonsense trash
pity your old age man

The Fulani can come to our Afonja land
We are accommodating in nature


We will give our lands for cattle colonies.
Just like we gave our support to buhari

We cannot give an inch of our scarce land to Fulani immigrants.
Cow business is a personal business

Buhari goverment is towing the DPRK line. You arm the fulanis to go and kill people in their land, cause troble intentionally and come back to take peoples land and give to you people who are immigrants from mali and tell us it the only way out.

We are not part of that game in SE and SS

Waiting for the mods to instill discipline on you to serve as deterrent,IF you will learn...an adult?
