Muslim Rights Concern, MURIC, has asked the President Muhammadu Buhari-led to address the burning issue of insecurity in the country by giving Fulani herdsmen enough bailout funds to buy land for the establishment of ranches.
MURIC also advised Miyetti Allah to take responsibility and show good leadership by re-organizing its members into cooperatives and ask the Federal Government for bailouts to buy huge portions of land where they can set up ranches and graze freely.
The suggestion was contained in a press statement circulated among the media on Wednesday by the director of MURIC, Professor Ishaq Akintola.
“The Federal Government still has some options open to it after the state governments in the South rejected the ideas of ranches and rugas. In our own view, the state governments who rejected the idea of donating land for ranches and ruga settelements did so because nobody was prepared to pay for such land and FG showed no intention to do so.
