The governor also gave reasons why the state government had yet to pass the law in line with the resolution reached by the Southern Governors' Forum during one of their meetings.

The Governor of Cross River State, Ben Ayade has said the anti-open grazing law which some southern states have passed based on the resolution of the Southern Governors' Forum might lead to war in the country.

"You have a responsibility as an educated person. We sit in the office and that's why even though certain governors have made it clear that governors must pass the anti-open grazing law, I have not because I've found a solution to it. "So before I pass the law, I decided to pull back and find a solution. That is why in Cross River, we're coming with an Open Grazing Management Law. I think morally, ethnically, it is unacceptable to prohibit a trade that existed before I was born. I'll rather find a way to modulate it so that it will meet the definition of modern animal farming or husbandry. I think because it's a profession, a business, it's also a fundamental right of people to do the business.

Ayade is a bastard, omo alé buruku

I am not crossrivarian ..buh I shaa like them for their defensive spirit..2secs em go slaughter all em Fulani's wey de cross River

ONLY IN NIGERIA COWS HAVE DISCIPLES

Precious soul sold to the devil for a morsel. Pathetic

When the PMB government is over, we shall see the real APC members. Many are follow follow because of PMB. Some people should know that the Internet never forget.

What if you are vetoed?

You go near nwuui when the time come

He need something from Buari administration so he is ready to sell his birthright for him to get a favour.

How you take relate with them?

Loyalists

The truth is Cross River might not even need to sign it reallly if all the states bordering it have anti grazing laws passed. That I am not sure of

Foolishness is when a black speaks wisely but contradict themselves when acting upon what they said.

Your brothers will soon happen to you. Ewu

Well your brothers indeed only time will tell we shall know how they become your blood brothers

If you like start open grazing by yasef, EFCC will still come after you once you handover. Political grandstanding won't save any of you calamities pretending to be govnors...

He is a betrayer, he must kick out and south east should know that. He must be deal with vote him out in any political interests or position

It's been confirmed now that political interests in Nigeria could make some people loose sense of reasoning. The spare parts dealers, poultry farmers etc that leased/bought land for their businesses are not your brother....... Shame on you.

So you are supporting the killings and marginalization of your southern family and the plan to grab land? If U think you are protected in d kings palace just wait and see if you are really safe as a governor.those who support evil are evil.

May your brothers visit you and your family as they visit others… Iseeeeeeee 🙏

Once u make that cross to APC, u immediately become a brother to those who ain't relenting in robbing, kidnapping, killing, maiming, and raping your kinsmen. What a waste of spermatozoa!

sabo detected!!!

See youths as a governor making such statements how Nigeria go better when youths like this who play for political gains only exist

Yeye Man 😂

He has been bought. The question is what does the people want, if you

The one crying that his people are suffering while hoarding palliative.

Who care if you sign or not?

If a DNA test should be done on this house negro, I'm certain that will be a trace of a Fulani blood in his lineage.

Afraid of being arrested after stealing

But they can destroy your fellow southerners business of selling alcohol in Kano, because they are not their brothers and nigerians. You could easily know slave by their actions. Onneghen was removed as CJN and you could not comment because of fear of the Ayatollah of Nigeria.

Finally this man is about to turn this state into Fulani herders state hope he’ll stay to see the destruction

Professor of stupidity.

Ode.this one na omo ale of my beloved cross river state o

Fulani governor😂

Another FulaniStooge in Biafra land!

Oloriburuku Professor

So those whose farms are being destroyed by these herders are not your brothers or sisters? Fulani slave.

Your professorship is questionable.

Sick governor

So those southern governors who signed the laws against open grazing signed Draconian laws? and You and Cross Riverians love the Fulanis more than the rest of us? It is only a slave who sees his masters on fire then says 'our house' is on fire.

Brainless Amoeba.....

Otellectual

Let kidnappers in your state work freely because they are also your brothers. You are making no sense sir

Fool

Always remember that you are a mortal

2023 will come and go

The prize of one nigeria is death.

He's infested with a fulani virus, hence he can't reason well, that's the first symptom, followed by inviting the boko terrorists soldiers in uniform to come and kill your own people.

This man you're doing well. But ur thunder no go easy when posterity go judge. Because karma d always chatter Keke, even if ur GPRS na private.

You brothers don't eat pork like you do. They detest our meat and call us infidels for our beliefs. Know who you call your brother and who you call your neighbor.

We know you, tomorrow u start crying on national television, ewu

So Cross Riverians being killed are your enemies and don't need protection?

This man looks like a fulani man, planted in rivers state long time ago, He is not a full blooded rivers man, they time is running out and we shall see they ending 😉 😀

Tomorrow Boko haram terrorists will be your brother too because of selfish intrest and political position they promised you.

This one don chop money

Youth will do better. I hope he's not a youth as I thought.

Am sure he has a case with EFCC 🤣🤣👍👍there guy is very smart. Pleasing the president to get mercy from his corrupt practice.

I can now understand why you act the way you do. It is obvious you must have gotten some herders blood in you. No wonder you could easily move from PDP to APC. Herders have no permanent abode. Sorry case CRS didn't know the elected a herder for governor.

if you’re facing jaiI time for steaIing biIIions you may say a lot of stùpid shìt too… weren’t the àrmy brutaIizing a village in cross rivers for asking fulani to stop dèstroying their farms

For those of you in business, media & government who have worked to abet these injustices: do note that while it’s fun to be in power, when tyranny collapses—and it always does—you will pay, Ayade you are among the worst confused idiots to step foot into the corridors of power

Mad talk from janjaweed man

Somebody go to school, becomes a professor and still no single sense..

My dear Ayade, trust me; it won't get you the favour you hope to get with the powers that be at A so Rock, and they'd still send efcc after one when you leave office. The point is; anti open grazing is not targeted at anybody per say, but just no longer convenient. That's wazzup.

Worst thing that ever happened to CRS

One will be wondering why this governor have to wait this long before the solution. Until your state plug into IDP'S?

The governor should do the doing than talking the talking! He should desist from being a willing tools to sabotage southern governors forum. His propaganda solutions he could not sale to governors forum he belong to, should not serve as cosmetics campaign to stir up crisis!

Ayade is only protecting his corruption. How do these criminal politicians in d south decamp,join a political party which is everything opposite to what their people stand for.A platform they will never win a credible election on.Hausa Fulani politician won’t sell out his people

Mr. Governor, u can sympathize with them for all I care, Ur time in that office will soon be up, but before then, u n ur likes are clearly on ur own, nonesense

So they should continue to Kill and maim the innocent citizens bcos they're your brothers.. ànd you called yourself a Prof🤔

I pray they visit your family someday

The monkeys and gorillas claim they're one, but a monkey is a monkey and a gorilla remains a gorilla. Mr Governor, don't deceive yourself or your people.

🤣🤦‍♂

OGA governor, why you come scatter my planned enjoyment? Calabar Carnival wey I don ready finish, u come cancel am.

baadellijames 🥩 🐄 choke for bros this Christmas o , ifb

How is that our problem

They can even sale their son because of power

Self preservation - all these 2nd term Governors who defected from PDP to APC because of officialEFCC should have kept their hands off the cookie jar.

Whats their names since they are your brothers?

This headers are my brothers are common among the 'it was PDP' governors who are they trying to impress?

Mumu Man, even fulani Governors ban Open grazing in the North, you see how moronic some Southern Governors are trying to Please their ASO ROCK masters.

You are a blind man. Because of your political ambition you loose your sense of reasoning.Its rather unfortunate that the people you are defending and calling your brothers do not have a singular brotherliness for you.They can even displace you if the opportunity calls.

Scammer 😂😂😂😂

You better leave with them inside yourself not in cross river

Very soon they will use all you have and dump you and your last blood🤗🤪🤪🤪Fulani's Brother🤣🤣🤣🥵🥵☠️☠️

Yeye man, a disgrace to all well-meaning short men all over the world🙄

Why wouldn’t Gov Ayade open the gates of the government house premises and let his herder brothers graze their cattle in there?

Maybe, Ayade has got the solution! Maybe, when we know the political party he truly belongs to!! Let wait and see!!

Aboki Ayade. Your mum never do?

I know you were human until you joined APC and your brain stopped functioning what pity.

Umahi said same, it ended up in tears and regret.

Another Governor after you will sign it.

Your end will be like Judas Iscariot

Werey in disguise 😂

Ode to the nightingale. Mumu. Selfish outlook. Continue we dey watch you ehn?

Crying governor, you say what? I just remembered you now APC and you need to impress your new found partner in destruction.

Mumu u have few months to leave cross River and go into exile

Mumu governor

Someone will soon sign it

Ogini !! What is wrong with southern governors

Anarii6 see your guy

That is why you are a fool. Your brother that will invade your farm when you talk they hack you to dead. Na mumu or madness dey worry you nonsense

You’re a saboteur, sooner or later you will regret your actions

Are u sure of what u are saying

Fear is written all over this man's face and eyes. I hope they don't give him FFK treatment. KeepitOn

Looooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

Judas Iscariot

crossriverwatch Say hello to the bad guy.

A professor with no thinking faculty.

Ok now. As long as they don't cross boarders from there.

If you like sign if you like don't sign after your tenure you are going to jail

The fair of officialEFCC is the Biging of wisdom carry on time we tell

OK o... Eye will clear you

brothers ki you there

Ayade is a lost soul and a prodigal who won't have a chance of repentance ever.

They will cut off your head one day

You are not bigger than the state, the people say they don’t want, so to hell with your relationship with the herders

So this man prefer his people's life to be jeopardized for his own personal political reasons. Where his people are not given same opportunity in north.

So you mean america, england, Australia do open grazing? Tufiakwa

He has sold his community’s security out to the terrorist loving presidency. Vote him out.

And u think dat will give u presidential ticket? Clown!

Reasons he deliberately avoided southern governors meeting. Will still not give him ticket to Aso rock.

We are keenly waiting for the end of this pathetic gallery play. Kaiso!

No better way to potray foolishness...

Don't worry, they will share your father's with you

He is an APC member and should act out party’s script outside Commonsense and good governance. This is the exhibition of chicanery by a Nigerian politician. Gov Ayade of Cross River State has distanced himself from his people. Outrageous!

you are on your own

Born throwaway! 🤡🤡🤡

No be u first talk am na, ask ur other brother Dave Umahi. Im too change mouth las las, so u won't be different

Obviously

This are one of those criminal politician who sold his people just to remain a governor.

Ben Ayade👇🏽

Seriously Mr. Ayade? Even Northern Governors want to move away from open grazing. For political gains you are pandering to Fulani! Have you forgotten the whole reason behind the ban? It’s not to deny anyone means of livelihood but to check killer herdsmen.

Be ready for their madness when it comes. Cos I see it coming very soon.

Them don threaten this one .

When a slave is speaking you don't expect anything good

This one no get sense. What has anti grazing got to do with brotherhood? Pipo like this shouldn't be taken seriously. Madness

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 wonder shall never end

The fact that someone is a professor does not make him intelligent and knowledgeable. Sir, grazing of cows in 21st century is obsolete. Ranching is safer, better, economical and productive. You guys can keep them in Imo and cross river state.

Silly and fraudulent character!

They are your brothers indeed and the farmers 🚜are your enemies....mumu man 👨

With this statement, any victim's blood is on your hands from now on.

This one don go

One of the most super efulefus, the happier willing tools, governors my foot

What's this again? Does he plan to contest for Presidency in 2023,thereby appeasing the Fulanis?

Until they kill his family

The moment they eye zza VP post or Senate seat, they start talking trash! Kindly invite the herdsmen to your backyard. Give that zza ozza room too.

LOL. 🤭😁😀😅😂🤣

Foolish Professor!

Okay. We will revisit this statement, when your eye clear.

Fool na fool

Cross Rivers indigene resist Ayade with everything within your disposal if not Fulani Islamic terrorist will overrun you.

Lol money is speaking, remember now you siad herders are your brothers

This man is really wise, How on earth will u ban something without bringing an alternative or a solution to it? Some governors sef.....

🤣

Yes they are your brother and they are free to come and kill and destroy the crops of your family. You are a true definitely of a lost fool.

Crying governor

Is only to speak good English is what you have A1. Others F9. The most useless and unpopular governor in the South. You want to please your political future and danger the future of your state

Boko Haram are your kinsmen too. Ayade fear God and protect your people.

Your brothers are around the Sahara and not by the creeks.

They will be ur brothers na because ur family is not part of those that is suffering from their evil stupid man .

They have bribed him!

The belief that Southerners would be able to impress the Northern Fulani populace Always turn out to end in regrets. And I don't see any difference here. The Southerners who some of them can't be able to speak their Language very well or even e proud to wear their attire. So Sad

The fear of E**c is the beginning of wisdom!🙄🤔

😄😂🤣 werey

You are calling cows your brothers because of 2023. shame on you.

Wow really ?😕 😳
