The Governor of Benue State, Samuel Orton, has advised the Federal Government to embrace ranching if it is genuinely interested in tackling insecurity.
Ortom stated this on Thursday at a lecture organised by the Correspondent Chapel of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, FCT Council.
He spoke on the topic, “Insecurity in Nigeria: Restoring peace, unity and progress.”
The governor insisted that the major cause of banditry, kidnapping, and other forms of criminality in Nigeria was because the Federal Government took no step to end open grazing.
He also accused the regime of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), of encouraging the herdsmen menace by canvassing the Ruga system instead of advocating the modern system of livestock management.
