     Governor Umaru Tanko Al-Makura has approved Seven (7) different locations in the state for federal government, FG proposed ranching programme.
The federal government had some days ago listed Nasarawa as among the Ten (10) Nigerian states for the establishment of pilot ranches. It is to start in the state and neighboring Benue.
Vice President Prof. Yemi Osibanjo presented the plan in Abuja, to permanently solve the farmers-herders conflicts, which claimed thousands of lives over the years.
According to reports, hundreds of people were killed this year alone in violence involving marauding herdsmen and local farmers across the country.
In view of this, the state government offered the seven grazing reserves.
Secretary to the State Government, Alhaji Mohammed Abdullahi, announced this in a statement on Saturday.
“Governor Umaru Al-Makura has approved the utilization of all the seven gazetted grazing reserves in the State, located at Awe, Keana, Doma, Assakio, Keana, Gitata and Kurudu for the purpose of the ranching programme in Nasarawa State”, he said.
“Consequently, the State Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning, affected Local Government Councils and communities where these grazing reserves are located are not only requested to note this development, but also to accord all the necessary support and cooperation for the successful implementation of the programme in the state”.
He further stated that Nasarawa State completely supported the federal government’s initiative and willing to provide all the necessary support for the success of the ranching programme.
“We see this initiative as an important proactive step towards assuaging and finding a lasting solution to the age-old challenge of farmer-herder conflict”.
Meanwhile, Ebonyi State government has rejected the programme, saying the have no land for ranching.
The state Commissioner for Agriculture, Barrister Ikechukwu Nwobo, disclosed this after SEC meeting.
Nwobo said “the state executive council frowned at the news making rounding that the State hasdirected or provided for a cattle ranche in Ebonyi State.
The highest organ of Ebonyi state is the state
executive council and the state security council and any decision taken by this council is the last bus stop for the people and government of Ebonyi state.
Whether the federal government consulted us, we are not aware of that. The State Executive council has decided and made sure that there is no land for ranching in Ebonyi State.
“We never provided land for ranching in Ebonyi
State and it is still our position and that those land they said is for ranching is for those Northern state that have always been doing ranching which have been gazzeted before now.
“We have no idea that we were included in the
ranching, we were not gazzeted. There is no land for any ranching in Ebonyi state and we are not aware that we are among those mentioned as ranching states.
“The Ebonyi State through the executive council
wishes to state that the government has not
provided or released any land for ranching, it
has no plan to do that. The ranching programme being done by the federal government does not include Ebonyi State and it has been redirected to those states in the North where the farmlands have been gazetted and have ranching ground which they will now revitalized”.One more photo below.
