Relocate To Kano, Governor Ganduje Tells Herdsmen
The Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, on Sunday called on all
Fulani herdsmen in some parts of the country, especially in Benue and
Taraba states, to relocate to Kano State.
Ganduje said Kano State had “vast grazing land” to accommodate herdsmen and their cattle.
The governor stated this during the monitoring of the state’s “free vaccination of over one million cattle and other small animals” at Kadawa Artificial Insemination Centre in the Garum Malam Local Government Area of the state.
Ganduje said Kano State had “vast grazing land” to accommodate herdsmen and their cattle.
The governor stated this during the monitoring of the state’s “free vaccination of over one million cattle and other small animals” at Kadawa Artificial Insemination Centre in the Garum Malam Local Government Area of the state.
The exercise titled, ‘Towards Conservation of Livestock Resource and Animal Protein for Citizens of Kano,’ was part of activities marking the 2017/2018 livestock vaccination programme.
Ganduje, who condemned the “recent killings during the clashes between farmers and herdsmen,” said they were unacceptable.
The governor said the vaccination was initiated to keep animals healthy and improve the economy of the state.
He said as part of the government’s commitment to encouraging herdsmen in the state, Kano State Government had been providing facilities that would accommodate the herdsmen and their cattle to discourage them from moving to other states in search of grazing land.
