The Senator representing Southern Kaduna, Laah Danjuma , on Tuesday asked  the Federal Government not to expect any land from the zone for the planned cattle colonies saying the policy is a land grabbing agenda by the Fulani controlled Federal government. Danjuma said, “Kaduna South Senatorial Zone and, by extension, the entire Southern Kaduna rejects any attempt to seize more of its lands for the exclusive settlement of herdsmen and their cattle, using state power. “Already, there is an existing Cattle Grazing Reserve in Laduga from land taken away from the indigenes of Zangon Kataf and Kachia Local Government Areas dating back decades ago. “That massive land officially gazetted at 32,000 hectaress, (32,000 football fields), but which the present Kaduna State Government has expanded to 74,000 hectare, was taken from my constituents without compensation till date, as records have it.” The lawmaker lamented that rather than the Federal Government requesting land for univer

The federal government says it will not accept the conditions given by the United States to sell fighter jets worth $494 million to the country. Mansur Dan-Ali, minister of defence, said this on Thursday while briefing state house correspondents on the outcome of the security council meeting in Abuja. Part of the conditions for the 12 A-29 Super Tucano fighter jets, according to the minister, is that the sale will not be made until 2020. Also, Nigerian technicians would not be trained by US and they will not be part of the maintenance crew. But addressing journalists, Dan-Ali said: “These conditions, we will not accept… They are also thinking of not allowing our technicians to be part of the production inspection. “But this is what we normally do in all the defence contracts, we send our personnel to go and understudy, especially when it comes to specialized aircrafts like in Russia, our personnel are permanently based in where the production is being done for thi

The lawmakers said they can no longer fold their arms and watch Enugu people being killed by marauding herdsmen The Enugu state House of Assembly, while deliberating on the 2018 state budget, claimed that governors no longer have power to control security agencies in the state except for neighbourhood watch groups.
