Who said the breeding of cattle is in the purview of Fulani only. The story of an Igbo man who rear cattle was shared online recently by one Uche Ezeigbo, who is a Facebook user.
Uche identified the Igbo man as Mr Tony Alika-Igwebuike, who breeds his cattle in a ranch he built by himself.
See what Uche Ezeigbo wrote on his Facebook page:
Mr Tony Alika-Igwebuike is a cattle rearer/breeder, he isn't Fulani, he's Igbo from SE Nigeria. His cattle do not destroy crops and other economic trees because he has a ranch.
He didn't wait for government to create cattle colonies for him, he invested millions of naira to build a ranch for his cattle, he even imports fodder grasses without any kind of help from the government.
Cattle rearing is a huge business with immense opportunities, we can't keep tolerating the excesses of primitive herdsmen because we do not want beef to go missing in our diet.
