Buhari protecting cows than human lives – Reps member, John Dyegh
Lawmaker representing Gboko/Tarka federal
constituency at the House of Representatives, John
Dyegh has asserted that the current President,
Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government places
more emphasis on the protection of cattle than human
lives.
Dyegh, who made the remark during a stakeholders
meeting in Makurdi, the Benue State capital, on
Monday, wondered why the Federal Government could
send out helicopters to survey states where cows were
being rustled, but did not do same in Benue where
human beings were being killed by Fulani herdsmen.
He, however, admonished the government to take
decisive steps in curbing incessant clashes between
farmers and herdsmen.
The lawmaker also claimed that some powerful
Nigerians were frustrating the passage of the bill
prohibiting open grazing which is pending before the
National Assembly.
According to Dyegh, “Recently, government sent out
helicopters to survey states where cow are being
rustled, but they did not do so in Benue where humans
are being killed.
“It clearly shows that we have a government that
places more emphasis on animals more than humans.
Government must tackle this issue with all seriousness
before it gets out of hand.”
