Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State has claimed that there
is no need for any law to prohibit open grazing in the State, stating that
farmers and herders are living together in peace.
The governor made this known on Thursday during an interview
on Channels Television.
According to him, the state government only regulated
grazing activities in the State in a way that would favour both the herders and
farmers.
Governor Uzodinma revealed that Fulani herdsmen and farmers
have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to be in peace with each other,
stating that both parties have been going about their businesses without
issues.
He said, “I don’t have any law in Imo State for
Anti-Grazing. What we have done is that we are regulating grazing activities in
the State under a partnership between our farmers and our herders.
“They signed a Memorandum of Understanding in my office
where they agreed to work together and both parties have been going about their
businesses without causing any grievances or anger to each other”.
