Nigerian Govt Bans Open Grazing In A Bid To End Farmers And Herders Conflicts

On Tuesday November 25, 2025  Nigerian government  officially banned open grazing nationwide, declaring it a capital offense, in a bid to end the long-running farmers–herders conflicts. Herders are now required to transition to ranching as the only acceptable method of livestock rearing.
The announcement was made by the Minister of Livestock Development, Alhaji Mukhtar Maiha, during the inauguration of the National Council on Livestock Development in Yola, Adamawa State.

  6. They banned okada and a particular type of bus inside Abuja towns but cow are free to move about. Sometimes, we even have to wait for them to pass before we move.

  7. Not only to ban, will there be enforcement. They should get land and do their business there like other business owners.

  8. So all this bloodshed did not lead to the federal ban. It is when an unpredictable world leader decided to visit with fire that they knew this evil of open grazing should be stopped?

    Can a farmer in Adamawa clash with another farmer in Otukpo? Is it not a roaming nuisance that will go and meet both at their immobile farms?

    What measures have been afforded the immobile farmer and his farms against the beasts roaming about farms who will pretend this was not announced on radio? How can that farmer defend himself or his property because those openly carrying without license are not interested in obeying any law?

    Shame on the sham of fulanization and islamization that have been thwarted by God.

    Let every Christian watchman and community be alert so evildoers don't use this opportunity to seize land. The shifty priest in Makurdi is giving worrying signals as he day speak like person way chook himself for bottle. There's no bigger"pick me" in office today.

    No aquaculturist, poultry farmer, silvioculturist, or any other agriculture practitioner expects government to dash him land and look away when he trespasses the land of others.

    If there's money for AK and cows are going for a million, there's money for land. Northern Christian communities be watchful so you are not neighbored by any "ranches".
