”Nothing in this country has forced Farmers and Herdsmen to clash or fight in some places in this country but, climate change”.
“Our task is now consider this change and provide our Fulani with grazing land that would their keep their sheep and cattle or otherwise feed,” he added.
He enjoined other state governments to consider changes of time to provide good grazing reserves for Fulani at their domains.
He also advised both Fulani and Herdsmen to avoid taking laws into their hands.
