Group raises alarm over open grazing, orders herders to vacate Imo community

25th Jun 2023 

An Igbo youth group, Coalition of South East Youth Leaders (COSEYL), says it has uncovered illegal grazing of cattle in farmlands in Imo communities which have caused hardship among farmers.

The group said no form of open grazing would be allowed in the entire Igboland, while calling for the arrest of some herdsmen who, they said, carry automatic rifles about in the course of grazing their cattle.

A statement by the President-General of the group, Mr Goodluck Ibem, alerted the Department of State Services (DSS) to move without delay and arrest the marauding herdsmen.

The group said: “The unlawful occupation and destruction of farmlands in Obosa Assa Community in the Ohaji/Egbema Local Government Area of Imo State by Fulani herdsmen with their cattle has brought great famine on the people as their crops have been eaten up by the cows.

“The cattle and their headers have also sent indigenes of the community packing from their ancestral homes and community.

“The issue of open grazing has been banned a long time ago, and anyone or group of persons still involved in such outdated practice is on a wicked mission of taking the ancestral lands of the community they are staying.”

The group said there was a bigger agenda than just cattle grazing, which is only a smokescreen, saying that this was more so as the Fulani herdsmen in the community parade with AK-47 rifles and other dangerous weapons.

“We demand that the Department of State Services (DSS) should immediately arrest these terrorists with AK47 riffles parading as Fulani herdsmen in Obosa Assa community, and we demand for payment of damages for crops and farmlands destroyed by those cows.

“We give those terrorists parading as Fulani herdsmen 48 hours to vacate the community immediately and never try or think to come back,” the statement read.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the unions
