Ganduje Taking Measures To Ends Farmers/Herders Conflict- Stakeholders

By Jabiru Hassan, Kano.
Kano state governor has been commended for his initiatives to ensure that conflicts between the farmers and herdsmen become a history in Kano state through the provision of more grazing reserves, livestock passages and other infrastructures in some RUGA settlements.

Speaking to our correspondent in Kano, the leader of Kunnawa Dam herdsmen Ardo Alhaji Gaza told Daybreak news that ” the measures duly taken by the Kano state governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje is an important efforts towards the promotion of peace and unity among the two important sides, and we are solidly behind the governor’s efforts “. He lamented.

Alhaji Gaza said that they are law abiding citizens and they were at Kunnawa Dam grazing lands for many years without any clash between the farmers and herdsmen of the area which is a commendable issue, where he assured that they would continue to live together because they needs each other in one place, calling on his people to maintain the good relationship.
In conclusion, Geza called on the Kano state governor and the chairman of Dawakin Tofa local government council to join hands and repair Kunnawa Dam which break just at the commencement of this year’s rainfall season in order to promote dry season farming and for their livestock consumption which also promotes peace and economic progress at the location, where there is a teaming youth who are actively into farming that minimises rural to urban migration for national security.

In his remark, a large scale farmer in the area Malam Ahmad Buhari disclosed that governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje deserves respect for bringing out excellent strategies that enhanced peaceful coexistence between farmers and herders in Kano state, and hoped that the governor would ensure that all grazing reserves and animals passages were re-demarcated and put in active uses due to control conflicts between the two sides.

Our correspondent monitored how some grazing lands were sold to wealthy people by some unpatriotic local  traditional rulers and some  local government executives that are being converted to farmlands which contributes to the high number of conflicts between the farmers and herdsmen  that usually resulted in the lost of lives and properties which needs severe penalty to all those who were found red handed in such offense across Kano state.
