GRAZING RESERVES: MINISTER TO STATE GOVERNMENTS-" DON'T YOU EAT MEAT?"

The Minister for Agriculture and Rural development Chief Audu
Ogbe says the Federal Government isn't going to force state
governments to create grazing reserves for cows, adding that the
Federal government has settled. For the best option-ranches.
In an interview with journalists, he heavily criticised state
governments by not helping in ending the incessant clashes between
herdsmen and farmers. However it may be, the federal government was
not going to force the state governments against their will. But the
minister wondered the rationale behind the resisistance put up by the
state government.
"Why do people behave as if they don't eat meat?" He queried.
The government will resort to using ranches, but the minister is
still wondering why a Nigeria that has over 40million hectares of land
cannot provide grazing space for roughly 20 million cows.
