Ban Cattle Movement From North To South, Says Ganduje

Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State has called on the Federal Government to enact a law banning the interregional movement of cattle from the north to other parts of the country.

The governor said this was important in order to resolve the incessant incidences of clashes between farmers and herders.

Ganduje said this while speaking with journalists after a special lunch which the All Progressives Congress, APC, governors had with President Muhammadu Buhari at his Daura private residence, Katsina state during the weekend.

He said having a ban on the movement of herders would also address the challenge of cattle rustling.

“My advocacy is that we should abolish the transportation or trekking of herdsmen from the northern part of Nigeria to the middle belt and to the Southern part of Nigeria.

“There should be a law that will ban, otherwise we cannot control the conflicts between herdsmen and farmers and cannot control the cattle rustling which is affecting us greatly.”
