Why must unwilling states be forced to give land ? Kano state has already offered the whole of Falgore forest reserve which is technically enough in landmass and vegetation to host over 200 million cattles forever which is more than all the cattles the herdsmen claim to have .... Strangely the Federal Govt deliberately left out Kano from areas earmarked for the suspicious cattle colonies!!!

Paperwhite:
You mind the evil government. Even Sambisa Forest is also there but they chose to leave it for Shekau to continue their blood sucking agenda.

We must all join hands to resist the imperialist plot of futon jalon

The jobless aggressive lazy idiotic pigs of biafra will not say anything on this.

That the killings by the bandit suswan started since 2011.

SalamRushdie:


So why does the govt want to buy ranches for Suswam and his killers ? I don't quite get this perspective

buhariguy:
this ranches is a good way to expose killer pdp,

By then bandit suswan can not put the killings on herdsmen again because they will now be restricted to a specific and particular area.

SalamRushdie:


In that case wouldn't it be better to build this mega Ranch in the Falgore Forest reserve in Kano very far from Benue so Suswam and co won't have reason to lie against killer herdsmen again na ?

PaChukwudi44:

don't mind the Fulani guy.This people take us all to be fools and I don't blame them rather our cowardly southern politicians.All the southerners in the stupid panel that recommended this are fools beginning from VP Yemi Osinbanjo to Gov Umahi

PaChukwudi44:
The Benue State governor, Samuel Ortom has denied the report that he had agreed to cede a portion of land to the Nigerian government for ranching.

Ortom said he did not at any point during his speech at the media and communications briefing on the National Livestock Transformation Plan which took place in Abuja yesterday state that he would cede any land to the federal government.

Terver Akase, Ortom’s Chief Press Secretary in statement on Wednesday said there was nowhere in the speech that Governor Ortom said Benue would give land for grazing reserves, the proposed FG ranches, cattle colonies or any of the related patterns of animal husbandry contrary to the provisions of the state’s Open Grazing Prohibition and Ranches Establishment Law.

He maintained that the state had no landmass for cattle routes and open grazing as the available land mass is used for crop cultivation to maintain the food basket status.

He reiterated that laws were made out of desperation to stop the killings, adding that the killings started since 2011.

Commenting on the ECOWAS treaty, the Governor said, “The ECOWAS protocol has not been observed by any of the ECOWAS countries and basic documents and checks are not done on the herdsmen.

The land is no longer there. What existed in the 60s when cattle rearers come around with sticks not guns was that we related very well. There was no problem; there was no fighting.

Everybody who has looked at Nigeria's map know that the states with largest land mass to accommodate any type or size of ranch are the north West states NW.

I noticed the terror kingpin in Abuja cleverly removed Katsina, Kano, Sokoto, Kebbi etc from his grazing fields. If the NW states own and benefit from these cattle business the most, why not build the ranches there and let other states go there to get the goods and distribute nationwide?

Why go to places where there is already severe land scarcity and try to annex the little land left for farming and try to build cow reserve areas there?

I Never Promisted To Give Out Benue Land For Ranching-gov Ortom
