Apparently faulting the Federal Government’s solution to the ceaseless killings by heardsmen nationwide, Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has insisted that ranching rather than colonies was the sustainable solution to the menace.
The governor, who dissociated himself from the suggestion for ‘cattle colonies’ proposed by the central government, said: "I am waiting to be briefed about what colonies mean. I don’t understand and know what the whole thing means."
He, however, backed the setting up of a military base to checkmate the activities of marauding herders in the state.
