The most pro- active and pragmatic way to force the hands of the federal government and the grazing cattle herders is for herder- resistant states to go into joint cooperatives and set up mega ranches across the country through credit facilities from banks such as AfDB and produce cattle at subsidized prizes that will be marketed directly to state citizens through state of the art advertising and gradually force grazing herders out of business.
The time to start such multilateral initiatives is NOW!
Im glad the bank is already working on something similar in the SAPZ projects. These should be replicated specifically for ranching so that say Ogun, Oyo ,Lagos and Ekiti can pool resources together as collateral to mega- loans for joint venture state ranches with states such Imo, Anambra, and Rivers within their states to force grazing herders to toe the line or face financial liquidation.. This goal can be achieved before the end of this administration.
They should not wait forever on the federal government exclusive leadership.
