He maintained that the Federal Government will definitely make funds available to Bello to kick-start the pilot scheme in Kogi State.

“Therefore, as a true representative of the people of Kogi West senatorial zone and on behalf of my constituents, we warn in strong that our soil, land, water and air cannot be used for cattle colonies.

Ok

While it's really a good idea to reject fulani herds men is because of Buhari's body language as regards the recent killings.

I can't believe the man hasn't said anything meaningful nor rebuke the act by his kins folks nor even visited the victims perhaps, through his inaction he has polarized Nigeria more than he met it.

Well spoken....Today is special in my life as today marks the beginning of greater achievements in my life...Happy birthday to me, myself and I

That is nice , no kabba and other Yoruba lands there is available for cattle colony. sambisa is available for them

I hope dino is aware of the current influx of fulani through isanlu axis. but as he has posited, we will chase them of through traditional ane spiritual means.

When the fulani herdsmen were killing Igbos, what did your Governors do?

Umahi was defending the herdsmen
Ugwuanyi was crying
Obiano paid the herdsmen for a job well done.

Mention a single governor from your region who has handed the herdsmen how Fayose has tacked them?

It takes a dumb person to drop this comment of yours. Were you deaf and dumb or probably not in existence when Herdsmen were killing your chiefs in Enugu under your hero?
Hopeless slowpoke.

Go back to primary school.because you don't know anything.

But you did not make noise about Herdsmen killing under your hero nau? All the money released for ranching stolen by your hero, yet no ranch was established, even when oil sold for over $100 per barrel.
Now Buhari has to clean up all your hero mess.
Yes he will do it.
Like Boko Haram, kidnapping, LiePOB and Herdsmen killings, they will all be defeated.
