“We’ve to stop herdsmen from roaming around” – Presidency

The presidency has said that it has to stop herdsmen from roaming all over the country to prevent clashes with farmers.

The senior special adviser to the president on media and publicity, Garba Shehu, said this when he fielded questions from newsmen on Tuesday.

Shehu blamed the roaming of the herdsmen on the drying up of grazing lands in the northern parts of Nigeria.

Shehu expressed delight that governors of the north-central are coming together to solve the problem of grazing.
