In 2019, Nigerian authorities launched a ten-year National Livestock Transformation Plan to curtail the movement of cattle, boost livestock production and quell the country’s lethal herder-farmer conflict. But inadequate political leadership, delays, funding uncertainties and a lack of expertise could derail the project. COVID-19 has exacerbated the challenges.
Why did it happen? Violence fuelled by environmental degradation and competition over land has aggravated long-running tensions in the country’s northern and central regions.

Governor: bandits in North recruited from Mali, Sudan Alao Abiodun
By Bolaji Ogundele, Abuja
Bandits from Mali and Sudan are operating in some parts of the North, a governor said on Wednesday.
According to him, the bandits came into the country on motorcycles and are recruited through the social media – especially facebook.
Niger State Governor Abubakar Sani-Bello, who stated this on Wednesday, said he had tabled the matter and other security challenge facing his state before President Muhammadu Buhari.
He spoke to reporters at the State House after meeting with the President.

The Governor of Niger State, Abubakar Sani Bello has said foreigners, especially from Mali and Sudan, are being recruited as bandits in the North through social media.
He made this revelation on Wednesday when he spoke with newsmen at the State House after meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari.
He said he had told Buhari about the matter and other security challenges faced by Niger State.
“The situation is very bad. Niger is 73,000 square kilometers. It’s the size of the entire South-South and South-East. So, first of all, we have a limited number of security personnel and I think we have to start thinking of increasing the number so that we are able to cover most of the local government within the state.
